Dynasty stashes (1 Viewer)

I like Keenan Reynolds as a stash candidate.  Not sure if he can make the transition to WR, but a high ceiling if he can.  Ravens have an opening at WR with Smith retiring, and they promoted him from the P/S in the last week to preserve his rights; so, he must have showed something.

 
Take that roster poison crap to the Jeremy Hill thread so we can properly ignore it.

I like the Kendall Wright call for the price.  Maybe he finds a better fit elsewhere, and for what you pay for him if you get a spot starter out of it it's probably a win.

 
I think Kendall Wright is worth a stash if you can find room. I've said this before but I see a similar talent as Emmanuel Sanders when he left Steelers. He's not quite as fast as Sanders and is probably more suited to be a slot receiver but he offers nice inside/outside versatility. He's produced before, and did so with poor QB play and by the time he finally got a decent QB the team went run heavy and have a strong preference for bigger bodied receivers. Just a bad situation for him in Tennessee with the coach questioning his ability to play with an injury and limiting him to spot slot duty. I can for sure see a career resurgence in the right spot.

Didn't look that impressive, and I invested lots of 4ths and 5ths on him last offseason when the thinking was "Hue brought him over." He's good as a move-the-pile RB, but it'd be unfortunate if he plays a big role for the Eagles next year. The only chance is that the Eagles have a lot of holes so they could punt on RB again. Although even UFA will compete with him for the roster spot. Seems like a Orleans Darkwa-type of gamble, which isn't that great.

I'm not sure I've seen Alex Collins listed here yet.

Could add Troymaine Pope also. Although both guys are clearly a step below both Prosise and Rawls so are more handcuffs than prospects.

To each his own, but I don't agree.

I am really high on Prosise but don't list him here because I assume his price is too high to qualify as a buy low. I am more shaky on Rawls. Could definitely see Collins having a role if one of the two doesn't work (injury or whatever).

That's probably why I like him as a stash.  A lot more people prefer either guy to Collins, and all it takes is one of those guys to not pan out or have injury issues and you have a ready made option.  Collins got some work at the end of the year and most of the blurbs I read were positive.  He has improved his conditioning and they seem pretty happy with him.

I stashed Turbin in two "short-bench" leagues (Keep 12, 12 team, 18 roster spots total) to see how things progress with Gore over the summer. Maybe he surprisingly retires and the Colts think that Turbin can be the main man. Doubtful, but that's why these guys are stashes. If that doesn't happen, he gets thrown to the curb at roster cut down time next summer.

Same theory behind rostering Ellington in both of those same short-bench leagues: if he signs somewhere where he might get the opportunity to shine, great. If not, later gator.

 
Any new additions to this thread? Free agency and the draft eliminated a lot of the players listed in here earlier.

 
I went 0/4 on my stash list with  Romo, Ellington, Wright and Escobar.

In general looking at the names that were mostly nominated we all kind of stunk at this exercise, at least if goal was to hold onto one of these players on hopes their value went up from last off-season to now.

 
These are stashes that I currently have on my dynasty roster although all might be cut by Sept 1st.

RB Malcolm Brown LAR - Todd Gurley's backup. Has the athleticism to be productive. He's stuck around so is showing tenacity. Could come out of nowhere if Gurley getys injured and be a solid RB2.

WR Josh Reynolds LAR - Another Ram. Lots of garbage time and he's a rookie. get him cheap and see?

WR - Ishmael Zamora - Has the physicals of Josh Gordon. Some of his knuckleheadedness too. Rookie wr with a stud QB. Who knows what happens with the Raiders.

I actually like both Turbin and Ellington as end-of-the-bench stashes this season.  

Much is being made of Mack as the primary backup to Gore, but if Mack cannot hold onto the rock, he could find the bench in a hurry.  I favor Turbin to be second on the team in touches, with a lion's share of the goalline touches.

Ellington's fantasy stock has fallen precipitously in recent seasons, and the team experimented this offseason with converting Ellington to the wide receiver position.  Most leagues should list him now as a RB; however, the Cards may use Ellington in a variety of roles to try to take advantage of the mismatches he can create.  If you play in a PPR format, Ellington could prove to have some spot-flex or RB reserve value.

 
These players aren't necessarily super deep, but they are super cheap who are my favorites to own right now maybe looking for new scenery:

Agholor - 1st round pedigree and I was really high on him, thinking he isn't one of these instant producers but a solid contributor when things start to click

Conley - Athlete whose shown improvement every year, stuck on an Alex Smith team 

Jeremy Hill (I know he was discussed already but FA after this year and he's dirt cheap)

JJ Nelson - Burried on depth chart but no Floyd and maybe John Brown isn't what people hyped him up to be

THE German (however you spell his name) - Diggs and Thielen are nothing super special although solid contributors, room for a dominant sized WR1 if he puts his physical tools together for an NFL game

Cardale Jones - They don't seem to like Tyrod very much so here's to hoping he gets a shot and shows improvement

Higbee - Everyone is on the Everett bandwagon but what about the guy who knows the system better?  Flash in a pan for a quick sell?

Jaelen Strong - Shows up when given a chance, not a lot of opportunity to date yet though

Some of these players could get a chance this season especially if the current starters have injuries but more looking forward to 2018, but would totally agree on Joe Williams, plus I would add Jonathon Williams, James Conner, Derrick Henry, Rico Gathers, D'Onta Foreman, Jamaal Williams, Kareem Hunt, Alvin Kamarra, Patrick Mahomes, Mike Williams, Leonte Carroo, and Cooper Kupp. Only Derrick Henry is being drafted high based on potential for this year. The rest can be had for a cheap price.

Nice list but I'll bet on peterman over Jones.

Speaking of bills stashes http://buffalowdown.com/2017/06/05/buffalo-bills-logan-thomas-name-remember/

Buffalo Bills tight end Logan Thomas is a player to watch as training camp approaches.

With injury concerns once again surfacing regarding Charles Clay’sknee, the Buffalo Bills are going to need other tight ends ready to step in if the former Miami Dolphin can’t go at some point this season.

A name to keep in mind as training camp approaches? Logan Thomas.

The quarterback-turned-tight end joined the Buffalo Bills late last season when the team signed him off the Detroit Lions’ practice squad. At the time, Rex Ryan said the team was “taking a shot” on him.

According to mockdraftable.com, Thomas ranks in the 80th percentile or higher in hand size, height, 40-yard dash, 20-yard dash, arm length and 10-yard dash when compared to other tight ends.

The site also compares him to the likes of Rob Gronkowski, Austin Hooper and Jimmy Graham.

 
With last year's stashes already stashed, I am taking fliers on:

Josh Dobbs PIT QB
Devante Mays GBP RB
Yeti Carson SEA RB
Robert Davis WAS WR
Isiah Ford MIA WR
Noah Brown DAL WR
Jeremy Sprinkle WAS TE
Ishael Zamora OAK WR (cat seems out of the bag though he got a lot more draft love than I expected)
George Kittle SFO TE (same to a smaller extent)

 
De'Angelo Henderson Denver  RB

Josh Reynolds LA Rams  WR

Chris Godwin Tampa Bay  WR

Don't know if Godwin would be considered a stash, but in my PPR dynasty league, I drafted him at 3.10.  I guess it depends on type of league or how the owners feel about his opportunity, I get the feeling that Godwin tends to fall in some drafts because there is little immediate opportunity for him to get a reasonable amount of targets.

Really?  Depends on the league I guess.  He was a late 5th in mine, player #80.

He went 51 and 58 in my first two drafts, both 16 man, so early/mid 4th was unexpected.  I did get him in a startup dev draft at #101 later.

Why does he know the new incoming system so much better?
