Not yet, but trending that direction.
IIRC... Trent Richardson aspired to become an actor as well.
Yeah no but I wish he was in the sense they'd trade him early in his second season.

Will take it. Too bad he can’t play the Panthers every week.

Especially today when he has a nose for the goal line.

Might have to move him. Falcons coaches think too much.

Carolina’s run D is league worst. Sell high.
Full disclosure: started both tonight and I’m happy with tonight’s outcome. But unfortunately, they won’t be playing against the league worst rush D every week.

Allgeier 18/105/TD
How many other RB threads will I find tonight where the back up has this type of production today?
Allgeier's rookie season - 210/1,035/4.9 ypc and Bijan didn't even hit those numbers his rookie season running the football

I’m of a strong belief that if Bijan went down, Allgeier would be the greatest injury handcuff in a decade and have a top 3 RB season from that moment on. Not that I’m rooting for this.

Yeah. But imagine if Allgeier went down!

I’ve said it before—I don’t know if it was this thread or the Allgier thread—I think Bijan is the better back out of him and Allgier. However, with that said—today’s game was against an opponent where there was every opportunity for Bijan to go nuts from the very beginning and slam the door on the timeshare with Allgier. While Bijan ended up having a solid statistical game—Allgier actually ended up making a case for himself to get more touches. Today most likely reinforced the theme that the Falcons have two really capable backs that both deserve to have major roles. Unfortunately—this is not a great theme for Bijan, and it’s a promising theme for Allgier. Bijan clearly is a wonderful talent—but I wouldn’t blame owners for capitalizing on the big week by trying to move him for some other elite talent. I think Amon Ra could be a target, Saquon, CeeDee….

From the Falcons standpoint this is easy to understand. They have two good rbs and plan to use them both. Obviously we overdrafted Bijan. Still a set and forget fantasy rb, just not the rb1 type we had hoped for. Efficient and productive today.

You had me before you mentioned Saquon
jvdesigns2002

I’m not necessarily saying “straight up” for Saquon. I’m just saying elite guys that a Bijan owner might want to target and put packages together for. I haven’t looked into Saquon’s numbers—but it kinda feels like most of his elite production came from 1-2 really big games.

This post inspired me to send out carpet bomb trade offers for all of the top half dozen WRs. This may be the only week all year we can "sell high."
Would any of you in this thread trade away Bijan to get Breece Hall straight up? Asking for a friend.
Yes.

It is very close in my eyes. If I were offered Hall right now, I would be sitting there thinking very hard about it. I think I would end up turning it down.

Thats a tough one to evaluate—as Breece does have a very capable back behind him as well. With that said, I personally think that Breece looks more explosive than Bijan—and the addition of Davante Adams could make that offense a lot more dynamic and create more opportunities. I want to make clear that my posts about Bijan are not intended to “trash” him. Even with Allgier—he’s a valuable fantasy asset. I’d personally call a move from Bijan to Breece either a lateral move or a slight upgrade (I think I’d slightly prefer Breece). I think both guys have the same bye week as well—so even that aspect involves it being a relatively lateral move.
I'd rather have Bijan.
A few minor reasons but the main one is I'd just rather have the guy who does not have the reconstructed knee.
And fwiw I own Breece in two dynasty leagues and not Bijan.
ETA-if I could get Allgeier or Braelon on the cheap that would sway my decision one way or the other but not everyone is a handcuffer.

As a Bijan owner I would have to sleep on it. If I knew neither would miss time I'd take Breece all day. My gut says Bijan is more likely to not miss games. I'm leaning Bijan, but it's close.
jvdesigns2002
Footballguy
I could totally understand that perspective as well. I do want to make crystal clear that my takes on Bijan are solely based on a redraft perspective as I’m not a participant in any dynasty leagues. Certainly on a dynasty perspective—I think that injury history has to be taken more into account. Just want to dot my i’s and cross my t’s.

Thanks for the thoughtful replies above to talk me off the Breece Hall ledge. I can always count on the collective wisdom of this forum.

I’d rather Bijan even tho both Rodgers and Cousins are RB-killers.
Hot Sauce Guy
Footballguy
I agree with this.
When I had the chance to move off Bijan on the Cousins bump, I took it.
It’s been a win-win so far, but Allgeier isn’t going away.

yeah heard that. In one dynasty it moves me from a 1.8 point victory to a 0.2 victory but surely someone is going to hear about it late and get the L.Bijan (and Mooney) stat correction incoming. Looks like official box scores have been adjusted but still waiting for the fantasy sites to correct.

Yahoo doesn’t seem to have applied it yet.
Though I’m leading by 41 already with his Pickens left, so I think I’m good. But I’ll take any advantage in this game.

Every time I watch Falcons games I’m not sure if I’m seeing Bijan or Mooney because the 7 and the 1 look very similar with the number font the Falcons use.

I was wondering how such a stat mistake could happen, but that’s as plausible of a theory as I’ve seen. Those new aged fonts the Falcons use have similar 1s and 7s for sure.Every time I watch Falcons games I’m not sure if I’m seeing Bijan or Mooney because the 7 and the 1 look very similar with the number font the Falcons use.

I spent the past couple of weeks trying to move Bijan after his Carolina break out game. I’ve seen enough now to not bother anymore and just hold RoS, unless someone offers me a Chase or Lamb for him. That RoS schedule is nice and juicy and Bijan is fairly durable as far as backs go these days.RB6 on the year now in PPR. Allgeier still involved but he’s not taking anything meaningful from Bijan. Non-existent in the passing game all season and he’s cracked double-digit PPR points twice all season.
We good.
I feel good about Bijan returning draft value, from this point on.

Aloha. First time Bijan owner. I'll admit I was frustrated earlier this year, but dudes producing. I guess I envisioned Tomlinson numbers. With all the inconsistent play of the top rbs I'm pleased with where he is.

Same, and it makes me feel like I have one RB slot locked down securely RoS, no matter what happens. Can't say that for every RB1 in fantasy, as handcuffs can be shaky, but this is as rock solid as a RB1/handcuff pairing goes.Holding Allgeier right behind him feels really good as well.

Compare/contrast having Wright behind Achane. Or many other situations around the league like the guys behind JT. It could be way worse and uncertain. Bijan is an investment you know you're insuring completely if you have Allgeier.
No question. Any games Bijan misses, Allgeier would likely be a top-10 option that week.Holding Allgeier right behind him feels really good as well.

Nice to see from my RB3. lol.

18-24-20-26 touches per game over that stretch
347 yds rushing on almost 70 carries, decent yd per rush but needs a lot of volume to produce, luckily the Falcons have been winning football games, lot of opp to run clock
The Falcons are not charging down the field with Bijan, they sorta matriculate the ball slowly down the field setting up play action for Cousins
He's been on pace of late for about 70 catches this season, there are some challenges at Receiver for Atlanta, Bijan investors happy to see him gobble up catches
Not many starting RBs that see 20+ touches a game every week, maybe that keeps up
Have had him both seasons in Redraft, won't likely be investing a 3rd season next year but we'll see on Draft night
Feels like he should have a lot more chunk plays than he does
Alex P Keaton

He’s averaging 5.1 ypc the past 4 weeks, on 17 carries per game. Also 20 catches for 152 yards over that same 4-game span.

I was thinking 5.1 ypc deserves slightly better grade than "decent" lol.
