Who would you start? Fargas or Rhodes?

I have all 3 of the Raider RB's - Jordan, Fargas, and Rhodes.

Jordan is out, so i need to replace him with either Fargas or Rhodes.
Who should i pick?

I have Shaun Alexander and Adrian Peterson (Vikings) at my 2 other RB spots and will be keeping them both in. Just need the 3rd RB spot filled.

tough to say...fargas had 1 good game..well great actually..he was averaging under 4 ypc before miami. rhodes has a better shot at a td because he will likely be the goal line back if jordan cant play. i got fargas but some jackass picked up rhodes like 10 min. before i was going to

Rhodes because he plays big in big games. He would open our offence up more.

I say Fargas because this is the first real game back since the Superbowl. I think Fargas is going to get more carries and more points.

I picked up Rhodes because I think he will get more opps in the red zone and goal line situations. Plus I think Kiffin as been just drooling over the possibilities that Rhodes provides out of the backfield.

My predictions:

Rhodes -- 12 carries/88 yds, 6 catches/44 yds, 2 tds

Fargas -- 20 carries/72 yds, 0 tds

ive decided on Rhodes.
Even on Fargas' huge day he didnt get any TD's.
Also against the chargers defense i feel like the yard will have to be grinded out and truly earned - so im going to go w/ Rhodes.

wise decision imo. fargas wont get touches on the goal line, and hasnt broken off a long td run...fargas will probably get 3 pts in a yahoo league. (60-79 yds) rhodes will probably get slightly less carries. maybe only 2 pts, but a possible td, jmo
