Priest Holmes is certainly talking a big game for someone who has been out of the league for almost two years now and had suffered what most all thought to believe a career ending injury. Well, the fantasy star of the early 2000's is bag and talking more than ever!
Seeing an opening on the Chiefs, Holmes has come out of nowhere to suit up and talk trash to LJ. My belief is that the Chiefs are more or less putting him up to this to gain leverage against LJ. While LJ doesn't need the practice, I definitely don't want to see him going into week 1 without any conditioning or contact drills...guys get injured, bad, by doing that.
Continue to draft LJ at the #3-#5 spots in the first round, behind LT and Steven Jackson. But do be cautious while doing so. It might be a good position to trade down from in order to not have to make that decision.
Regardless of Holmes' talking massive amount of crap publicly, he will not be the starting RB and probably not even the backup. If LJ doesn't show, Michael Bennett will get the carries, so if you do in fact draft LJ, handcuff him ASAP with Bennett.
