Forte or Smith?

Interesting question over at Yahoo! Sports:
"Matt Forte and Kevin Smith are eerily similar. Who do you draft first?"

Well, who do you take - Forte or Smith?

Definitely Forte, Smith is on a team with Tatum Bell, who likely be the starter, Forte is on a team with Adrian Peterson (the other one) and Garret Wolfe. Definitely Peterson.

Re: Forte or Smith?

All things being equal look at the following to help decide who to take first...

SOS - Strength of Schedule... especially against the run!

Team - RBs on bad teams tend to do worse on fantasy teams because bad teams have to pass more to play catch-up more often!

System - WCO teams pass a lot more to backs so PPC (or PPR) makes these backs more valuable!

Coaching - You know any back on a Skeletor (Mike Shanahan) coached-team will get the rock a lot more than a team that has RBBC or throws a lot. RBs on a team like New England are bad for fantasy football!

Fantasy Scoring - see "System" above. If your league awards PPC, RBs that catch more passes are way more valuable than a straight-up runner!
