Player vs. Player

I figured we could use this thread as a comparing players and waiver wire pickup/drop thread so we don't have to make a whole new topic every time

Better fantasy option this year in non-PPR

Turner or Gore?

I've been taking Gore in my mocks. Turner won't see many 3rd downs, whereas Gore can be on the field at any time. It's close, obviously, and it's sort of preference, but I think Gore. However, I won't be too surprised if Turner returns to 2008 and is a top 3 or 4 back again -- he's one of the few guys in the league who is the regular back and the goal line back.

Here are two for everyone else. Rank these lists (combination of solid players and low-risk high reward guys)
WR: Laurent Robinson, Derrick Mason, Louis Murphy, Mike X. WIlliams
RB: Leon Washington, Peyton Hillis, Chester Taylor, Ryan Torain

I'd rather have Gore, but it might be my bias as a 49er fan.

As far as the other list...
Other than Derrick Mason & Chester Taylor
I would hope that I was in a really deep league to even consider those guys
