JJ vs. MM - Who Gets The Carries In Seattle?

Maurice Morris started the first preseason game and got most of the carries.

Julius Jones did nothing in the first game, but is slated to start the second preseason game.

The Big Show has hinted about a RBBC, but Seattle gave Julius Jones a bunch of money to sign with them.

So who gets the carries in Seattle? Will either of these guys be worth owning in 2008?

I like MoMo here. JJ is an average back. If he is outplayed by MoMo, I think money won't get in the way of good sense on Seattle's part.

I say Julius gets 50-55% of the carries, with Mo getting about 30%. That should leave 15-20% for the inspirational duo of T.J. Duckett and Leonard Weaver. I don't think Julius is going to be great, but at the right spot in a draft he could provide value. However, I don't think he will provide that value at his current ADP which is somewhere between 40-50 (if I'm not mistaken).

That didn't work out too well. Case re-opened.

JJ starts out with the carries and MM ends ups getting far and away more carries by mid October.

MoMo will get more carries. If JJ can't be successful in the '07 Cowboys running game I can't see much to be optimistic about with him in Seattle.
