Post Draft Free Agent RB’s - Do I snag one?
Posted on 8/28/18 at 9:44 am
Posted on 8/28/18 at 9:44 am
10 Team PPR league, just wrapped up the draft grabbing Giovani Bernard in the last round.
My current RB’s are:
J. McKinnon
Alex Collins
Royce Freeman
Peyton Barber
Gio Bernard
Do I drop Gio to add one of the following before the season starts:
Chris Thompson
James White
Ty Montgomery
Bilal Powell
Matt Breida (handcuff?)
Corey Clement
Austin Ekeler
My WR’s are stacked obviously with the lack of RB talent... looking for a high potential RB to stash on my bench, not so sure Gio is that guy over others still available. Thoughts?
Edit: Do I drop Jordy Nelson or Kelvin Benjamin for one of those guys instead? Other WR’s on roster are Antonio Brown, Michael Thomas, Adam Thielen. May have to propose a trade to a secure another quality RB

ost your whole roster
I prob wouldn’t hold Jordy or Kelvin Benjamin on a 10tm
Chris Thompson should absolutely be rostered. I’d prob want James white on my team too

Thompson and White are the only ones worth a flyer imo. I'm not too high on either, but I like them more than Gio

Thompson is not a flyer, hes an important piece that should absolutely be restored.
You can make a case for White as well.

Thompson averaged more PPG last season than
Dion Lewis
Jordan Howard
Devonta Freeman
Lamar Miller
Mckinnon
Would have been in that RB11-13 territory overall

I think both of those guys finish above WR40, Most teams hold 4 or more WR, 10 team league. Why not hold them?

I like both of those guys also, just not sure who to drop for them, or if I’m getting much in return. I don’t like the touches that either of those backfields offer when everyone is healthy. Thompson probably safer than White right?

When will you ever need them if you have brown theilen and Thomas? There will be good WRs available in a 10 team

Im assuming he didnt get drafted because of owners fearful of the news he wont be "back" till November and that hes always hurt, Gruden just said he looks great and is on track to roll week 1.
He comes with some risk but hes a must add.

You have 4 expendable players
whichever QB you like less
Bernard
Nelson
Benjamin
just my opinion.
Id like Thompson and chances are there are guys on your wire that i like more than those guys. Look to fill with guys who have higher upside, but just do not have the path to playing time right now

I see your point, and I kind of thought the same during the draft. The value was there though. Which would you drop between Jordy and Benjamin? I kind of like the fact that Benjamin is healthy and is a massive target for a mediocre QB to throw too, not to mention will be #1 red zone target
Posted on 8/28/18 at 11:04 am to Shameless
Benjamin probably has more upside
I think when Bryant gets his head on straight it's not going to leave Nelson with enough targets to justify holding him in a 10tm league

Les, Im curious, lets say Thompson plays a full season, where would you rank him in PPR?

He's being severely underdrafted (RB32).
He's my RB20 right now.
Their QB has changed, but OC has stayed the same. Their RB position is a mess. Smith won't be afraid to check to him either.

Who do you like better: Benjamin or Agholor?
Posted on 8/28/18 at 11:24 am to Shameless
I drafted 9th in a 12 team league and picked WRs and QBs early and am in a similar spot RB wise (K. Drake, C. Carson, L. Blount & S. Perine).
I’m going to hold onto my waiver spot until an injury happens and nab a RB. If Thompson was available, I’d probably try to get him though.

probably Benjamin because of opportunity.
i have found myself staying away from Eagle players this year. I think their offense get's scouted better this season.

I was going to start a thread on players you don't know what to do with....and the Eagles were featured prominently (Ajayi, Alshon, and Wentz) all have some pretty big question marks surrounding them. Odd for an offense that was so hot last year and won the SB seems to be one to avoid for fantasy purposes.
