Jacksonville just looks to have a much better offense at all positions, including the offensive line.
Close but I like Etienne over Gibbs...I think. Probably Rhamondre's too because I am still concerned about Gibbs' volume.
He went at the end of the second round in my long standing league draft tonight.
Seems like mid to end of 3rd is where he goes a lot. I think he should be a late 2nd pick. Though when I see his ADP on Fantasy Pros it seems more reasonable than what I actually see in the drafts I notice.
Yeah, this is the kind of slide I see happening. Inexplicable. Do you know what other players were on the board that you debated or who went just ahead of him? It's just so weird because drafters usually go stupid over young high pedigree RBs like ETN but every year there seems to be a new reason why people don't like him. He's too small, he's not a pass catcher, James Robinson, Tank Bigsby. It's like Jerry Seinfeld with a girlfriend, just looking for any reason to break it off.

Wow nice picks. If those guys went at 25 and 26, I would have nodded along.
I have the same reluctance about Andrews. I like him but think he blends more into that Hock-Pitts-Waller-Kittle-Goedert tier than he does stand as a clear TE2. Could be my Lions bias but I don't think Hock is special. Real nice athlete but drops more passes than you would like and seems to disappear for long stretches.
Haven’t seen that kind of hustle from a skill player since DK Metcalf ran down that INT on MNF a few years ago.
Wow. That was impressive. He looked like he was playing at a different speed than anyone else on the field.
Ruled Ridley stepped out of bounds at like the 5 or 10 I think. He should have scored, took kind of silly step out of bounds that I thought he could have kept in.
Yeah I know his 40 time at the combine wasn’t eye popping but I think he was loading up weight feeling that number was more important. I don’t think he plays at 215, probably more like 205. If you look at his college tape, it sure looks like he plays at a different speed. Also was nice to see a career high in receptions and I believe he led all NFL RBs in route participation.
What exactly is "route rate"? A quick search wasn't enlightening, and the first things that come to my mind are clearly impossible, given Etienne's value of 86%.
I only watched the second half, but by my count in that half he had 14 touches.Usage
Performance
At least he caught all his targets, but, man. You gotta break at least ONE big one when you get 23 touches.
Makes two of us. Although I do start CMC, Henry, and JJacobs (dynasty) .. O well.Finally sat him this week
You're welcome.
I did not.Finally sat him this week
You're welcome.
RB18 in my league
4 games.
it’s been 4 games. Even in your league the difference between him and Conner is like 2 points. He’s had 2 good games. It’s just how fantasy goes unless you are CMC. Guys have big games and bounce up, have a bad game slip down.
