  I'm in a ppr league I can only keep one. they both will cost me a third round pick. who will you keep and why?  I like Forte because the bears said he will catch a lot. But he can't stay healthy and he don't score touchdown.  I like lynch because he is a beast. But he don't catch.. Who would you keep and why?

  Lynch should be the "steadier" of the two & that's what I try to do when selecting keepers... Both are good options for a 3rd rounder however...

  PPR or not I want Lynch. While I think Forte has a great year I still believe Lynch outscores him.

  This is tough for me. The reports on Forte catching a lot of passes is convincing me he will be a top rb this year. I would go with Forte since its a ppr league.

  I go with Forte being a PPR league as well.  Lets just say Forte does catch a lot of balls and out catches Lynch by 60 balls.  That is the same as 600 rushing yards.  I don't think Lynch out rushes Forte by 600 yards.  That isn't even including all the yards Forte will get on those receptions.

  Forte has missed 5 games since 2008, he missed 1 game last year. He's not very injury prone....    ;) I prefer Forte but honestly this is close to a wash to me. Lynch should be fine this year, after that off field issues and perhaps cap issues could take him off the field or out of Seattle.... If your looking beyond this year at all.

  Forte by a wide margin over Lynch. 

  
  

  Injuries to Forte are being overblown.

  Forte is set to have his best year ever.

  Forte scores a ton of points with rushing, receiving and is a top 10-12 back without TD's. 

  Lynch is a knucklehead beast facing all types of issues in the future.
