Other than J Taylor, my RBs absolutely suck.

I was able to get Gainwell off waivers and will likely start him.

But I also have AJ Dillon. If Aaron Jones is out, then the obvious play is to start Dillon over Gainwell right?

Nope. Aaron Jones just out there hurting NFL defensive end’s feelings.

Apparently tweaked his ankle, which is why Dillon got so many carries late in the game last week.

But Jones is still slated to play and obviously start.

Pretty good. Usable for flex or bye week help right now. Starter if something happened to Sanders.

Have to imagine the people who added Gainwell from waivers are feeling much better than those who drafted Sanders

I drafted Sanders in the 5th. Somebody else drafted Gainwell in the 14th.

I'm more pissed than I should be. The only other RB that I'd want after Sanders went was McKissic.

He’s better than sanders

But be careful chasing the volume and TD from last week though. With both there ya really got nothing in Philly. I’d roster him not to play but to handcuff in case of sanders injury

Personally, I look forward to the day every team employs a strict RBBC.

I picked him up this week bc my RBs are Dalvin Cook/Mattison and then Damian Harris and Gaskins. So, like OP, i was kinda desperate.

Watching the game last week, Gainwell was doing all the things people expected Sanders to be doing this year.

My biggest problem with Gainwell is the #14 on a RB. I dont think ive ever seen that before.

If you were the Gainwell owner, would you trade to get Sanders on your roster also?
