Excellent stuff
Still, it's close enough that even just being a "fan" of either of the other guys or teams is probably enough to tip the scales, IMO. There's almost no point trying to get things right within tiers. Try to get the tiers right, then make yourself happy within their confines.Excellent stuff
I would lean towards AP because I do think he has a lot left in the tank and, like you say, the Norv factor.
I stopped reading after this. ADP is at a higher risk of injury due to his age and spending a year away from football, so the rest of your points are moot. You can't just bury your head in the sand.
Not picking a fight, but considering that I just posted the exact opposite sentiment upthread, I'm curious as to why you think that.
I would make an even money bet that Charles misses time this year. I would also bet that Charles misses more time than ADP.
I think the potential for injury is high for every RB. I'm leaning toward Charles because of the ability to back him up with Davis and still have a top RB if/when he goes down. I don't think McKinnon/Asiata or Williams gives you the same production.
I remember what he did the last time he spent a year away from the football, but it happened more than a year ago so...
I don't think it would be all that hard to get DeAngelo late in the draft and he should fit in nicely for a couple games. I wouldn't count on the guy for much more than that, but 2 games? It's not like you get a 0 at one RB for 2 games because Bell is out.
Most are worried about the playoffs not 2 games at the start of a fantasy season.
yeah, if lacy can match or exceed last year this year, I think he joins the tier. he's probably going to but if GB has any more significant injuries it could become a toilet season.
I can agree with all that ... except KC's willingness to limit Charles touches last year.
I know we're largely splitting hairs here, but picking RBs based on their perceived strength-of-schedule in the fantasy playoffs?
I think if you're close on them, looking at fantasy playoff matchups is a decent way to break some ties.I know we're largely splitting hairs here, but picking RBs based on their perceived strength-of-schedule in the fantasy playoffs?
You're guessing how nine potential defenses will be performing three months from now. That's basically dartboard territory.I think if you're close on them, looking at fantasy playoff matchups is a decent way to break some ties.I know we're largely splitting hairs here, but picking RBs based on their perceived strength-of-schedule in the fantasy playoffs?
However, none of the three really have THAT much easier/harder playoff schedules then the others. So it doesn't help this time.
Agreed. Also heard a theory (I think from Bill Barnwell) that Lacy could actually end up being the biggest beneficiary of the Nelson injury. His logic was that, with Adams as WR3, they were more likely to go three wide. But with two untested guys, they might go to more two TE sets and run a little more.
