If you leave draft night with only 1 handcuff RB…. (1 Viewer)

[The Dude]

who is it and why?

I would probably go Wright as I love the offense and don’t trust the others to stay healthy

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Does Achane count as a handcuff to Mostert (Or the other way around)?

 

[RaidersAreOne]

I was recently convinced Braelon Allen is a top-tier handcuff.

 

[gbill2004]

Tyler Alegeir because he has standalone value as an RB3/FLEX as he's projected to get 40% of the RB touches for Atlanta, and if Bijan gets injured, he will be an RB1

No one with any actual intel has projected him to get 40% of the RB touches. Another beat writer has them at 80/20.

It's the backup to whatever starting RB I have on my team.

Handcuffs are just backups to RBs on YOUR team. Otherwise they're just a 'backup rb'

I think it depends on what you are trying to accomplish...are you saying regardless of whether you have the starter?

 

[greenmountaingoat]

Vidal is dollar tree Wright.. But for me it's clearly Corum.

 

[menobrown]

Corum is head and shoulders above any other handcuff to me.

 

[greenmountaingoat]

Jordan Mason too.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Mason for me. Biggest upside of any handcuff.

 

[Gally]

If I have CMC then Mason is a must have and I will reach to get him.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Ray Davis

 

[greenmountaingoat]

I landed Mason at 20.09 in the FBG bowl. It's funny how four days ago it was like "Who's that guy on the Niners behind Mitchell again?" I had to look up a depth chart and search him on sleeper by name because I couldn't find him in the queue.

Now he's likely going in the 10-12th rounds.

 

[Stinkin Ref]

I think Justice Hill is being ignored a little....

 

[Chaka]

Mason for me. Biggest upside of any handcuff.

I agree but IMO the absence of Trent Williams really hurts his value.

He was an a rb2 at best in an Arthur Smith offense two years ago. Did the guy start doing steroids or something?

He’s exactly the one I want at current ADP. But I drafted Wright and dobbins (does Dobby or Gus count as the handcuff?)

Seconded.

Same. Took CMC with the first pick and Mason with the last pick

 

[msudaisy26]

Ty Chandler. He does have stand alone value and I expect Aaron Jones to miss at least a handful of games this year.

 

[Grid71]

Have a bunch that I like very much, but one player to rule them all.

Marshawn Lloyd

Yes

In the FBG Bowl on Tuesday night I was sniped as he went the pick before I was going to take him at 16.04
