Compelling reason to bench one of these 3 RBs: Carson, Powell, Anderson? (1 Viewer)

[goldenboy232]

This is a WDIS question: In a PPR league, of these three RBs, which one would you bench (I will start two of them), and what's the compelling reason why?

Bilal Powell vs. JAX

Chris Carson vs. Indy

CJ Anderson vs. Oakland

I'll hang up and listen.

Powell. Jacksonville's D is too good and the Jets suck...

Powell is the easy call.  He's in a bad offense, splitting carries, and hasn't done anything so far this year to inspire any confidence.  I've seen him dropped in every league I'm in so far.

Absolutely Powell. That Jax D is legit.

 

[mzkp54]

Powell for sure.

It was a extremely reasonable call but that's why fantasy is fun to play. There are no sure things.

Let's also not forget that he scored nearly half (more than half in non-ppr) his points on a single, fluke run. And neither Anderson nor Carson (before his injury) had particularly bad days. Still the right call imo with just an unexpected result. If Powell keeps getting this kind of volume I think his stock rises slightly, but he's still a marginal flex play more often than not.
