Dynasty Buy Low's/Sell Highs (1 Viewer)

Rashee Rice: Between injuries and Worthy's good play, people are surely a little down. He was SO good at the start of the season. I'd at least see what the price is.
Meant to touch on this one earlier.

Isn’t there still pending legal action / possible suspension looming?

Might make him more affordable.
 
I sold on ETN towards the end of the season. I was one of the highest on him on these forums, but it sure looks like Bigsby is overtaking the lead role. At best it’s a split backfield, and a weekly headache where both RB cap each other’s value. The best bet with ETN getting a value bump is a Bigsby injury and you can’t really depend on that.
Next year could be neither one of them depending on who the new coaching staff is. It’s a deep rookie draft and while the coaches could decide on one of them, I don’t think either guy has done enough to clearly cement themselves as the lead back.

Jax has 99 problems but a rb isn’t one

Agreed but that doesn’t mean a new coaching staff won’t have his own guy in mind, even someone that can be drafted late.
 
Buy low RBs

Blake Corum
Trey Benson
Marshall Lloyd
I sure hope so on the last two because I got them on the my most RB starved team. Managed to make the final 4 of FFPC format getting right about 8 PPR points on the season from my RB2 which was mainly handled by Jaleel, Roschon and Bigsby. Then lost Kamara and finished a distant dead last in the final 4 playoffs.

What's made the situation worse for me I'm guilty of the cardinal sin of drafting for need in this last draft and being entirely to focused all season long on allocating my FA money for RB help. And I by and large struck out. And got pick 9, guessing by time I pick 5-6 RB's will be gone.

Anyway I took Benson and Lloyd due to drafting for need and need them badly I do, but I can't say I share your optimism. Re-signing Conner was a big blow to me regarding Benson. Lloyd's pretty much a total unknown but hard to see him as anything other than a COP/handcuff role as his ceiling. I won't disagree these two could be good buy lows, but I would have to pay a lot less draft capital in this years draft vs what was paid for these players last year. That's due to performance of the entrenched veteran RB's this season for on all of their teams, and the depth of this years class more then actually anything negative they showed, but just the same none of them really showed much in the way of a positive either.
This year was pretty unusual with the resurgence of the aged running backs. Henry, Mixon, Jones, and Conner all outperformed their draft position significantly. Interestingly, those RBs did not exactly light it up their rookie year either. The narrative that RB is the easiest position to learn is strong, but not entirely accurate.

They do seem priced for value now, according to ktc, anyway.

Benson was a late 1st and now mid 2nd
Corum was early 2nd and now late.
Lloyd was early 2nd and now mid 3rd.

I’d be looking to get in slightly cheaper, even.
