I wouldn't do a thing in deep dynasty. Hang on one more offseason.
He's guaranteed a new coach with Titans or on a new team
Bri- I have read most of your posts on the Titans (as you seem to be an "informed homer") yet you often give a decent unbiased opinion.
Appreciate that.
I must ask this question.........
Many years
IN RE-DRAFT I sniff out value on these "non-respected" teams like the Titans, and next year it looks to be a very overlooked team again.
This year has been pretty much a wasteland there at RB, and i don't even know if I owned any Titan
AT ALL on any roster, anywhere.
Its these type years (this one upcoming) where there is often value to be found at RB on an organization like this.
In situations like this, you can often get a low end RB2 value or someone that can be a solid part of my own personal "fantasy RBBC" and that works out well since I tend to go WR heavy in drafts.
Simply put- the public often sleeps on these type teams, in the preseason and in drafts since they tend to "stink" for lack of a better term.
I know its early, but do you see any RB coming to be a real factor next year in fantasy?
NOTE: It doesn't have to be a monster RB1-ish type talent, but do you see anyone being a semi-dependant RB2 as far as fantasy is concerned in 2016???
FWIW- I had my thoughts on Sankey being on the low end RB2 radar coming into this season, but I stayed away from the situation, and I am damn glad I did.
One would think Cobb could be one to watch, and you would think if they ironed things out with Mariota then some RB could be relevant if things worked out. (Cobb might be a good low end RB2, if they committed to him)

Cobb is garbage because he doesn't give his all. He isn't committed so the Titans will never commit to him.
Long ago in preseason, he ran well with a FB against 3s and a few of his regular season carries have been good with a FB or 3 TE. By himself, he stinks. This is very fixable and they have a good FB.
He's immature? inexperienced? with the passing game. Looks like a child picking up the blitz and when drifting for the dump off he is behind the QB out of his view.
He must come to the offseason stuff re-dedicated and ready to do anything asked of him. He ought to find one of these retired coaches and positional coaches that work with college players and get some work in the passing game.
If they could do it again, with what they know now, I have no doubt he'd have been on the PS and Fluellen on the main roster.
The rook has now seen Sankey play WR and other spots, Andrews, Fluellen, Fowler...I do think it is very likely he feels foolish in that good sorta way that gives him a kick to come into camp with a better attitude to be a more complete player. I wouldn't hold him or do anything with him in dynasty, let someone else have him. I expect they draft or sign a RB and that makes him a backup. Backups must do the little things too and today he is wayyyy behind all the other backs in those little things.
I would say Andrews and Sankey for dynasty. Sankey does have talent and ability. Andrews plays FB, RB, 3rd down back, slot, KR, PR, ST ace, and this summer added long snapper and backup emergency QB. What new coach isn't going to like that versatility? With a new RB, I think Andrews is a lock for a backup spot. Whether he is 2nd or 3rd depends upon Sankey's talent coming out or not. Sankey has the highest ceiling so I'd go with him in deep dynasty.
On the radio, Webster does NOT sound like he's adding a RB. Most think he's gone, me too, but this catches me off guard every time. They LOVE Andrews, even Lebeau and the defensive guys. IDK if it's poor blocking and still giving it his all anyway or practice performances we don't know of but within the team, they adore the guy. That thing with his dad during intros about midseason was considerable. Webster didn't blink when he got most of the carries not the two backs he drafted. When he messed up it was oops he made a mistake but when Sankey and Cobb do it's the end of the world. There's not a lot of outward stuff to go on that I can point to. If you watch the pressers and listen to the radio interviews, today, they have no qualms about him being their feature back and he is "the man."
I don't believe this because IMO the entire RB corps should be at risk to be cut for their low production. A new coach will watch film and...what? Think they're great? Feel lucky to have them? I do not at all buy what they're selling. I'm very confident they draft a RB in round two.
Monday there may be these thanks for the memories pressers as Mularkey exits and probably Webster soon after. I'd bet $ they mention Andrews in the same breath as Casey, Morgan, Orakpo and other gems. If not there then look for them on the radio as reporters try and get "parting shots" interviews. It'll happen and it is shocking.
I guess you have to keep Andrews and then when the new Gm or coach talks of signing a RB, then let him go. Ya can't cut a starter today in deep dynasty.
Fluellen is still a potential play this week in a thanks for your work on PS type move. If so, he replaces Cobb. This week should be Sankey and Andrews. Cobb not playing 3rd down doesn't bode well for him coming in and playing a lot. Fluellen has the yes coach mindset and has dramatically improved since day one.
For deep dynasty, I'd put it as-
Sankey
Andrews
Fluellen
Cobb
If I had to pick today, next year's team-
New guy
Andrews
Fluellen
Sankey signs elsewhere and Cobb becomes a midseason pickup by some team or on Titans PS
On each McCluster is 3rd down back.
