Debate Question: Should Owners Hang On To Larry Johnson?

I thought this question was pretty much settled, but apparently there are some believers in a L.J. renaissance. Over at CBS Sports, Dave Richard is forced to take the pro side in the debate, arguing that with all the teams supposedly showing interest in the free-agent back, he’ll undoubtedly end up on a roster soon. And he’ll still have value as a flex option. Jamey Eisenberg takes the conventional wisdom route, that L.J. is finished as an NFL back that matters.

Other debate questions include: Start Brett Favre vs. Detroit? Start LaDainian Tomlinson vs. Philadelphia? Start Darren McFadden vs. Kansas City? Start Jason Witten at Green Bay?
