Is starting Maurice Jones Drew this week over DeShaun Foster a good Idea?
Thanks Dirk

Dirk,
They both have tough matchups this week. I have them rated about the same, but I have Foster slightly higher. Obviously, Jones-Drew had a better week than Foster last week, but Jones-Drew is a little banged up. I would suggest Foster, unless you have another RB you could use.
Good Luck!
