I traded him in one of my dynasty leagues where I am long in the tooth at QB.
I also have a draft tonight & for some reason think he's going to go in the late 3rd/early 4th.
Got him at 5-7 on this past Sunday in a 12 team league and I was sweating that. Guy drafting at 5-9 said he would have taken him if available. You are taking a risk on drafting a guy who is out in the first 5 rounds. If he comes back sooner you are golden or it could blow up your face. You just have to back that pick up in the next few rounds and you have to hope one of those guys hit. Has able to get Williams late so hopefully he covers 2 weeks.
I took him 47th overall last night as my RB1. After the pick I got comments how people considered him earlier that round, and others saying they would've taken him in the next handful of picks if I hadn't. I followed him up with Martin as my RB2 with next pick (Ellington only RB picked between those 2).
I'm thinking because we only need to start 1RB, 1WR, 1TE and 2 FLEX (WR/RB/TE) I can risk it and take Foster as my first RB at 4.6Kenny Powers said:
This^. I think there's some confusion about what he said. He did not say that he would only miss 2 weeks. What he said is that he will definitely play more than 2 games. Big big difference. He actually sounds a bit less optimistic than all of the prognostcators if you ask me.
Followed this plan and got Charles/AJ Green/TY Hilton/Olsen with the first 4 picks.
this just came up on the same feed, sounding good for my 6.05!
In my 10 team league I took him in round 7 at pick number 66Took him in the 7th round 72nd in a 12 team non ppr league last night.
IF he comes back earlier than expected = Powerball hit
OR he's out until week 8 = worth the wait
If he's coming back late September/early October we are at 2 to 4 weeks.
Can you make trades? For picks?
Basic math here but if Sunday 9/13 is week 1 then the last Sunday in September 9/27 which would be week 3, so 2 weeks hence. Which would be awesome.
I understand how a calendar works thanks though. There are currently many different reports all varying in if it's late September or early October.
Here's hoping to playing by 10/4
Seven years as QB and RB coach at Central Florida. Three years as an Offensive Assistant and TE coach for the Patriots. I would guess he will stick with an offense similar to what O'Brien has run. I would be surprised if the offense suddenly had a dramatic change. NE obviously used the TE position a lot, but I am not sure the Texans have the same personnel.
This is great news. This isn't a collarbone or a shoulder. Contact has nothing to do with it. He just needs to be able to run. I'm sure they don't have him making aggressive cuts yet or full speed stopping and starting, but just fact that he's running already is awesome. Really hoping to see him playing by week three.

The fact that he wants to go is probably a pretty good sign, as it seems like he usually is pretty well in-tune with what his body is capable of.
If you can start 2-0, you might go undefeated.
Oh and I left out that I have AP as well, Bell was my keeper. Frankly if I can go 1-1 I'll be thrilled.
