Post deadline, it seems pretty clear it's Dobbins (if he can go), Harvey if Dobbins can't, and some mix of Badie and McLaughlin behind those two. The chance of someone unfamiliar with the scheme and not talented enough to be on a roster or practice squad stepping i seems very remote. Go RJ!

No other RB faces a deck as stacked against him as CMC. I think that explains most of the sub 4 ypc. If there is a drop off with age, I don't think it's very much. Maybe we can get a better idea if he stays healthy long enough to get his first string passing and receiving attack back. I...

The 'Submit Lineup' page on MFL for the two leagues where Judkins is on my roster now lists him as Suspended for week 2? Is this just website error?

With receiving skills being the thing we (okay I) know least about Bill, That seems the RB receiving is the skill most critical in finding a replacement. No one (certainly no one cheap) is going to replace Ekeler for those skills. Someone like Montgomery with his receiving chops and all around...

It's day 1

Can we say which Taylor we are discussing? Admittedly, I would take Nabers either way.

Are people thinking Payton didn't consider pretty carefully the guy's age, potential blocking issue and the solid but not currently elite receiving skills when making the draft pick? Or is it that they watched tape, understand those issues better than Payton and so know better than he how much...

Because they might go to the Superbowl if they stay healthy - granted, a big if.

Most of my leagues are dropping or have dropped kickers. One league uses team kickers, so you draft the team in your kicker slot and have the kicker points for that team that week no matter who scores them. You can change teams on waivers. In a team's bye week that team gets the average fantasy...

Is it insignificant that of the 35 slowest RBs ever, of which Steele was tied for slowest of all, the most famous guy is known for his dad's boxing prowess. There isn't a RB1 or even 2 for any length of time among the whole bunch. Power is good, but without some speed it's unlikely that a guy...

I play in a few leagues and a couple very clearly do not prohibit tanking and a couple that say anyone tanking in any respect is automatically kicked out of the league. The theory behind the first group is they are dynasty and tanking for a better draft position next year is making your team...

5 of 7 are dynasty. Of the 5: Dobbins 4 K, Herbert 4 Burrow 3 D. Watson 3 London 3 J. Reed 3 JSN 3 Kincaid 3 The top half of those plus a couple each of Chubb and Javonte show the danger in repeated reliance on a few guys.

I had not really ever considered this. I guess I'll leave my dynasty teams as strong and ready for the future as I can make them and hope someone better than I am re-shapes what I have put together and has great fun and success with them. FAR more likely that someone I have never known or heard...

If you don't count Brian Thomas, Jr?

So, they have youngsters Quentin Johnson and Josh Palmer, along with the 5th and 37th picks. If they are optimistic about Johnson and/or Palmer, they can grab one of the top 3 WRs in the draft and perhaps be set at WR for a while. If they use the 5 pick elsewhere, they will probably get one of...
