It is hard to put biases aside in fantasy football and I think you are right about Freddy T. His lack of goalline carries make him pretty useless in fantasy football, but the rotating system in Jacksonville makes me hesitant to depend on MJD unless he is the starter. He was projected to do very well last year, but had a rough couple of weeks initially (99 yds 0 TDs in first 3 games). Either way, though, the Jaguars have one of the best running back duos in the NFL and it should take them to the playoffs again (as long as they stay healthy). Thanks for the response guys.

Which means they'll both go for 1,100/10. We just discovered your site and we're hooked already. You don't mind if we add you to our blogroll do you?

The more important question is whether MJD is a top 10 fantasy back or not, FantasyIndex has him as their #8 overall guy and based on his performance the past two years seems to be a reasonable prediction. I think Fred Taylor stays healthy but he doesn't cross the 1000 total yards plateau while MJD breaks 1500 total yards and scores 12 times in 2008.
