That would be great and likely shut up the nay sayers if he has some good performances over this stretch.
He did not test positive, at least not yet.
I really have no choice but to roll with Taylor and Booker too. I could start Edmonds over either one but think I'm rolling Taylor/Book. Jacobs on the shelf and Mike Davis on a bye. Any compelling argument to start Edmonds over either of them? Short of Drake being out for some crazy reason....
I’m going with Booker over Taylor in non PPR. I have a feeling Taylor has a good game tomorrow but can’t trust how Indy will use their backs so I’m going with the guaranteed touches.
Yes, but that’s mostly due to Jacobs being out. FWIW, I strongly consider Taylor over Gibson earlier in the week (and now don’t have to make the decision). I do have Taylor in over Gore and Snell.skillz said:
It's pretty maddening. Seems like they could just have Taylor and Hines in a committee. I don't know why the Wilkins carries are necessary.
It's part of the charade.
What a terrible "article". Hines has been a "major factor" in a grand total of 2 of their wins this year, and only 1 of those was as a runner- Taylor has been a bigger factor in 6 of their wins. Hines also hasn't been very good, he has a 3.3 ypc and 8.2 ypr compared with 4.1 ypc and 9.3 ypr for Taylor. And Taylor was behind both Hines and Wilkins until the 4th quarter, he had 3 total carries in the first 3+ quarters for crying out loud.The Frankman said:
In small leagues with short benches, it was not possible to hold Taylor if you wanted to make the playoffs. Before we anoint Taylor the next greatest RB, lets see what he does against a real D. If he finishes the year strong, I would not hesitate drafting him again in 2021.Truebluey said:
Not sure anyone is anointing him. We're just laughing at the people who were selling and calling him a bust half way through his rookie season. He at least looks like a solid #2 with #1 upside at this point. Has a ways to go before he's a stud but it seems the dynasty sellers were a bit premature. Don't blame you for bailing on him in a redraft with short benches.
Two totally different outlooks. You're right. I was really wondering why guys were giving up on him so quickly. I thought I was down on him from the beginning, but he's looked good when he gets in the open field. Scratch that, he looks great.
Well people were prematurely labeling him a bust. Just like most things the truth is likely somewhere in the middle.
It was the fact that they were calling him a bust halfway thru his rookie season. A season where a rookie had no preseason games to get his feet wet. And it was based on lazy analysis such as "just another typical Wisconsin back".
I think Taylor is a good player. I have just learned that these coaches are not easily won over. There was more truth to what they were saying about time share with Mack and their other RB before the season started than I thought there would be and I shouldn't have dismissed it so quickly.
Yeah I agree. Reich just can't help himself.
