Who would you rather have long term and why?

Tough call as I'm not high on Sanders at all. I like the opportunity for Gibson to be a higher volume back, so I would gamble on him. I feel based on value and how highly Sanders is ranked among owners, you could get something on top of Gibson in a trade involving the pair.

McKessic averages almost 7 targets a game, good for 3rd among RBs. Even with high volume, Gibson's value is tethered to his work on the ground and he was very TD dependent in 2020.
The Eagles were a complete dumpster fire, so it's hard to assess any of their players performances in 20.

McKissic has a year left on his contract, but I think it’s more realistic that we could see Gibson cutting more into his passing work than McKissic’s role expanding. How much bearing it has on the future, I don’t know, but we have to remember Gibson was essentially learning how to be a RB on the fly last year. Give me that dude who wasn’t an RB but finished RB13 in PPR as a rookie.

This was my thinking as well. Sanders is older and on a team that is in complete disarray. I think he has more risk AND less upside.
Thanks for the thoughts everyone.
