Priest Holmes...

He's getting old and has been bothered by injuries. LJ is out next week so Priest gets the nod. Can the man still play?

Yes, if the game is Boggle and you give him a ten-second head start.

One of my fave backs of all time. It's really nice to see him back on the field, and if a guy as beat up as Jamal Lewis can still put up numbers then I think Priest can too.

I actually like him. He helped me win of the first Fantasy Football Leagues I ever played back when he was with the Ravens, and a couple more years later when he started out with the Chiefs.

But it's never a good idea to have a 34 (?) Year old Running back with a history of injuries, play behind a below average Offensive Line.
This experiment isn't going to end well.

i think he'll be alright. i think he could put up at least 89 yards and a touchdown, and dont be surprised to see him go over 100. he has obviously not played in a while but they are playing one of the worst run defenses in the league in the Broncos so i would not be too surprised if he puts up good numbers.
