Rachaad White vs Trey Benson (1 Viewer)

[Wasabi]

PPR, 10 teams and need some RB depth. Who has the most upside? Both are still out there as FAs. Outside of bye weeks or any injuries, my starters will be are Bijan Robinson and Chase Brown.

Thanks for any input.

I’d go White here still. He has proven in the past he can be reliable in PPR and with Benson, we still gotta just sorta HOPE they split it up so he can produce.

But it’s close like 55/45 for me.

Is this an upcoming boxing match I didn't hear about?

I think Benson has more upside, because Tucker would be very involved if something happened to Bucky. Benson may have the backfield to himself if Conner went down. I'd greatly prefer Allgeier to either if he's still out there.

I am rolling with Benson. Even with Conner in there, I think he will still get some good carries. I don't feel that way with White. Yeah, he'll get some receptions especially early on with the WRs beat up for at least a month but I have a feeling Tucker will also be cutting into any rushing yards outside of Bucky.

Overall, I'd rather have White in a PPR, but I agree if you're thinking upside Benson is probably the better bet. Conner wasunusually healthy last year, but his age and prior history suggest the Injury Reaper may be coming for him this year.

My only question about Benson is whether he's any good. Certainly didn't show us much last year

White is probably a nice PPR floor guy to have. He’ll get a few receptions, occasional TD. If Bucky were to miss time it’d be Tucker+White like it’s Bucky+White.

Benson is the feature back if Conner misses time. Good lottery ticket. I’d rather have Benson.

I think he’s better than what we saw. He’s a young dude. He had some flashes. With more touches I think he’d be solid. Cards have mentioned that they want to get him more involved.

Well that settles it, since no team has ever lied about getting a player more touches!

Anyway, you may well be right. I'm certainly not saying he's bad based on last year. More that we don't really know, and are mostly betting on situation. We've all seen supposedly "solid handcuffs" who turned out to be bad, or not even the team's next man up when the starter got hurt
