Stewart vs. Ronnie Brown
The earlier poll was such a massive hit, let's do it again.
One of the parts I love about this job is how much value can change in a week. Seven days ago, I'm pretty sure every Ronnie Brown owner would have dealt him for a young, rising star like Jonathan Stewart. After Stewart was stuffed by the Vikings and Ronnie went wild, it's a closer call.
These are two of my favorite players. I tried to remain steadfast in my belief of Brown's abilities during the preseason Ricky Williams hype, and it's great to see him recovering all his skills. But how high is his ceiling? Will the Dolphins staff let him be a true lead back? Who will get more touches the rest of the way: Stewart or Brown?
That's a lot of questions. You can answer by choosing below. My gut says Stewart's ceiling for 2008 is a little higher. I like the offense around him better, especially the line. These are both low RB2 players who should prove to be good draft values, but my money is on Stewart being more consistent.
Comments
Bye-weeks aside, I'm riding both of these guys as my 1/2 punch. A luxury I'm afforded by having the Holy Trinity at WR: TO, Megatron and Steve Smiff. Boo-ya!

I just picked up Ronnie Brown out of the free agency pool. He was dropped by one of the guys on our league 3 days before his big game! Since I am 0-3 (right now) I eagerly used my last free-move and picked him up. There are some benefits to being a loser (right now). Now my team is as follows, in a 12 team non-ppr league. Carson Palmer, Matt Cassell, MJD, Matt Forte, Ronnie Brown, Andre Johnson, Santonio Holmes,Eddie Royal,Tony Scheffler, Greg Olsen, Nick Folk,Ryan Longwell, Dallas D and Giants D. We start 1-QB 2-RB's 2-WR's 1-TE 1-Kicker and 1- Def. So do you think I have a shot to turn my 0-3 status around?

I stand by my earlier comments.
Carolina just trounced Atlanta; the game was never in contention and the power running game of Williams and Stewart got how many carries? 50? 40? Try 30. And Williams still got more carries.
You guys can beat your heads against the wall with a talented player who won't get enough carries all year long, or you can go with a proven performer. I'd take Brown all day long.
