I was choked when I couldn't get him in my one dynasty league as a stash. Matt Waldman has been really high on him coming out of college - said he can do it all RB and WR. Only issue is all the mouths to feed in GB but eventually he could rise up with the talent he has. Wonder how much it would...

I think Jones for a third is reasonable. Gives you insurance and there is a possibility he gets another shot down the road to start - especially if he plays well in Purdy's absence. Now that Purdy is ruled out 2-5 weeks it will likely cost more for Jones. Hopefully you were able to get it done...

Yep, good points here. Also fun fact if you started Caleb you got 24pts. If you started Nix you got 6. Daniels got 20. FF is fun.

Maybe it just takes time for young QBs and everyone is different and on their own path?

It isn't just one thing and it isn't as simple as Caleb is good or bad. We are just pointing out it is a new coaching staff, everyone is learning and maybe, just maybe it is going to take some time. It is game 1. Reality: Caleb looked good at times. Caleb still needs to work on certain things...

Some good points here. I was visibly getting upset with the 4 false starts - all seemingly within a few minutes. Threw off the momentum - they need to do better. Caleb had some good throws and others that sailed. The ones that sailed (3 that I saw) were all the right reads and a good decision...

An orange jersey surrounded by bars?

Damn, as I typed this "riding this guy for now" I got an unsolicited offer I'm not sure I can turn down. I'd love to hold and be part of this "entertaining" ride this year but if there is value to be had - much more than I paid, I might have to ship him off - even as I am contending. I guess...

I traded for him last year after he got benched for Russ (even though he was playing decent in the first 6 weeks for PIT). I took a gamble knowing he would get a shot to start somewhere, sometime. But your last question was always on my mind - would he, and could he keep a full time job and not...

Don't listen to the negative people!

I'd work this one hard to squeeze out a first. Look at rosters who are strong but week at RB. Maybe JW + a third will net you a first now. I would be working hard to trade him but he's only 25 and could play 2-3 more years as a starter. Getting a potential starter for a 2nd is a home run...

Badgent is a solid back up for sure. He's played well but this is still Caleb's team. Bryce Young was written off and all of a sudden he's playing better by the end of his second year. Players take time and the hate for Caleb from some is deeply rooted and those people won't and likely can't...

I think JW was worth a second during the summer. Honestly a late first is what I would want and I don't think that is asking too much. If a true contender needs an RB that they can start weekly in the flex or as depth it is worth it. They may not be willing to pay but giving up a 25 year old...

Good news for those who aren't 100% sold as his value is now up again and climbing. If someone is a contender JW + a pick could net you a pretty nice player right now.

While we play fantasy the coaches are not playing fantasy. Having "juice" is one small aspect of playing RB. You may not like it but JW is a veteran who offers a lot more than juice and the rookies will have to prove they are better and not just in the who can run the fastest. I expect JW to be...
