    Gross!

    If I had to choose, I'd say Ridley but anything can happen with either guy. A lot of uncertainty around both.

    I'm on board with the Raiders backfield this year and think DMC vs the Jets is a good play.

    Not feeling great either way as a week 1 Hobson's choice of sorts, but I'd start Ridley over DMC.

    Assuming he doesn't cough the ball up while jogging out of the tunnel for warmups, I'd expect Ridley still to be the short yardage guy and goal line back at a minimum in Week 1. By contrast, I honestly have no idea what McFadden's role will be. But I think those assuming that he's the de facto third down and pass catching back might be in for some disappointment. MJD has excelled in that role over his career, in addition to being a pretty effective short yardage and goal line bowling ball. DMC really might be nothing more than a true change of pace back at this point, albeit one with a big name. Not sure I'd want to gamble on him being something more than that until I see it.

    I think MJD will be the RB1 in OAK.. I would seriously consider Ridley if I had to choose..
