Have I been starting the wrong BRobinson? (1 Viewer)

14-team non-PPR league where we start 2 RBs, 3 WRs and no flex. Drafted Bijan with my first pick and Brian a few rounds later. It didn't even occur to me until after the draft that I had both Robinsons, and I joked that I would need to make sure I didn't accidentally start the wrong one ...

... except now I'm starting to wonder if I actually have been starting the wrong one. I took Kamara in the fourth round and he's absolutely locked in as the overall RB1, even in non-PPR. Bijan hasn't been bad (RB21), and there's no reason to think he won't eventually pay off. Yes, he shares the backfield with Allegeir, and this weekend he had fewer yards, but he's clearly the lead guy (and also had a nice-looking TD off a screen called back on Sunday). Meanwhile, Brian has been awesome (RB11) and that Washington offense seems to be getting better every week.

Anyone else facing this dilemma? Should I "start my stud" or "ride the hot hand"? Or should I even think of trading one of them for receiver depth (I have Nico, Higgins and Jennings, with Adams currently on the shelf)?

Curious to hear others' perspectives
 
Brian Robinson was one of the most obvious draft steals I've seen in awhile. Daniels is going to steal some at the GL but if he keeps completing passes and moving the chains at this rate, he and the backup are going to feast.
 
BRob ( WSH) was my one of my keepers this year. Was slightly worried about Eckler but not overly concerned and was expecting this to be BRob’s true break out year. I also drafted Taylor and Cook so he’s been sitting. This past week was a toss up for me with him and Cook but I ultimately went with Cook as he had been on fire.

BRob will likely hit my lineup finally this week with JT probably down. Hopefully he keeps it rollin’
 
Petition for a flex
Yeah, it gets annoying sometimes. Used to be a 16-team league so we were always scraping the bottom of the barrel for WR3s while leaving talented RBs on the bench. But it's a long-time league and I don't think anyone wants to change the rules at this point
