Antowain Smith or Tony Fisher?

Due to injuries (and a lack of trust in Kevin Jones this week), I need to choose one of them for RB2.  What do you think?

I like kevin Jones!.....But since you eliminated him......
 
Antowain Stecker should be splitting carries with himself.
 
Tony Fisher should see well enough to play as long as its not to bright and sunny. If farve doesnt throw the ball to him it wont bounce off his face before he see's it.
 
How about picking up Jones from Jacksonville. He will light it up this week.

I like your Greg Jones suggestion.  I'd bet anything he's in most waiver wires.  I just picked him up, mainly because I have Fred Taylor.  If Taylor doesn't play, I'd try for him.
 
But If I were to choose between smith and Fishter, I'd go with Fisher.  GB is pretty banged up on the WR side and Cinci has given up close to 150 yds. rushing per game the last 4 games.
 
I put Fisher in on my free league as a flex this week just to test the waters.
 
Hope this helps.

I'd go with Fisher. He should see at least 20 carries and will catch a few out of the backfield as well!! I think he will surprise   some people come Sunday.

I concur with my three colleagues above.  I, like sk, think you GOT TO play Kevin Jones.  He's the guy you drafted, I'm sure, HIGH.  With Garcia now at QB, you GOT TO go with your money player and screw these scabs we are discussing herein.  BUT, as sk stated, since you've de facto eliminated Jones, go with Fisher... OR I also like O4l's suggesting Greg Jones if Taylor does not play.  I may even like him over Fisher based on matchup.  BUT, it all depends on whether or not Taylor plays (which my gut tells me he won't).  Anyway, good luck, gal!
 
And, by the way, I love sk's "pun"ny post! Very witty and clever!

I've heard a couple RUMORS about Reshard lee really ending up with that job in GB. Either way I think they'll split it up.
 
If you have to pick someone up go with G. Jones. I'd have him on my roster anyway if you've got taylor.

Guess I should have mentioned that it's Smith vs the Dolphins and Fisher vs the Bengals.  I was unhappy playing K. Jones because he is still hurt and they're playing the Bears D.
 
Do you think picking up Greg Jones would be good for that many games?

Nahh, not that many games.  He's a good back, but only worth anything when or if Taylor is out.  If Taylor doesn't play this weekend, I'm sure his stock will rise because if he can't get healthy after a bye week, he's not going to be all season.

RB Kevin Jones is on the up and up now that FB Cory Schlesinger is back, and he might have a nice game here considering that they have been giving him the reps.
 
This is from cbs.sportsline.com.  Not a highly trusted site to me personally, but I'm sure their reporters are paid quite a bit to get good info.
 
Just something I ran across this morning.

Callie,  
Im a Steeler fan. When the Jags played the Steelers, Jones ran over them. I think he's the real deal. As for the long run, I wouldnt be suprised if Taylor ends up injured again. Jones is worth the risk.

I would start Kevin Jones over either.  Schlesinger is back and Garcia's presence means that defenses have to actually think about defending the pass.  
 
If you really do not want to go with Jones, I would go with Fisher.

DT Shaun Rogers is out for Detroit today.  I sat K. Jones.  G. Jones may not play with Taylor starting.
 
Purely on the fact that Stecker should be very limited today, I started A. Smith over Fisher.  Guess that means Fisher will have a great day.
