I’ve seen various reports indicating that Monty will have a slightly reduced role to the benefit of Gibbs. I think Monty effectively wears down defenses that actually helps Gibbs break off some of those long touchdowns.
I'd make cases for CMC and Barkley over either of them. Bijan (in my eyes) is a safe floor pick, but I don't see much upside from what he did last season, which is fine, but not what I'm looking for in a top-2 pick. I think Bijan is more of a mid-1st rounder.
Disagree on Bijan’s ceiling. During the first 4-5 weeks last season, Allgeier was still playing a decent number of snaps before they finally made Bijan essentially the bellcow(for today’s NFL standards.)
That post week 5 stretch is a 397-touch pace. He had 365. I don't see the Falcons feeding Bijan more, and they'd be stupid to do so in my opinion, as Allgeier is really good, probably the best #2 RB in the NFL.
Where I think he really has potential to expand his role even more is in the passing game. He’s a really good pass catcher out of the backfield. I expect his target total to be well north of the 67 he received last year.
Chase produce more than a few league-winning weeks last year.
Isn't he himself one of the people who pronounce it BEE-zhahn, though?
I've got Lamb as WR1, and #3 overall.
same, I actually got distracted but was going to reply the same

According to Weezer, it's bee-ZHAHN.
Allgeier isn’t good. He blew blocking assignments and missed the hole on multiple key short yardage plays. He was the definition of mid, even for a backup.
No fumbles in 500+ carries. Bijon has 5.
I own zero shares of baaaaajon, but if I did I'd have ZERO concerns. Dudes about to be the #1 scoring rb in all formats.
I also have Lamb WR1 this year, but wouldn’t be shocked if it were any of Lamb, Chase, JJ, or (gulp) London.
I would take him top 3 without hesitation as well.
No. If CMC plays 17 games then he runs away with the top overall player award.
For about 3 days I was taking him over Chase at pick 1. Didn't make sense. I absolutely would take him at pick 2 in any startup.
I got Lamb as WR2 and player 4 overall. Have had Lamb in that spot as WR2 since I started drafting in January.
I'd take Bijan over Gibbs in redarft but in dynasty would prefer Gibbs.
Yep - I did a start-up SF recently and with the 11th pick managed to have a choice between Lamb & Gibbs. I panicked a little and took Lamb, then Gibbs made the turn. But in hindsight I should 100% have gone Gibbs.

Im in the same boat , but Cincy D is so average to bad that you HAVE to take a chance most games will be a shootout, and unless they throw the whole defense at Chase ,hes going to light it up almost every game. My only concern is that im in a keep 2 players keeper league and 90 % of the players taken are WR `s meaning most will draft Rb`s in the first 2rds ,leaving scraps .
They hype always suggests a player is going to be generational. Trevor Lawrence is a great recent example. We'll see how generational Caleb Williams turns out to be but the early returns were kinda mid (although much better than many are willing to acknowledge). Jeanty is this years guy, but in his case it's already a stone cold fact. They've already molded his uber upper tier HoF statue. Full body, none of that mediocre head only stuff.He's a solid 18-20 points a week, hard to dispute after last season, pretty consistent but has yet to have a game that might look like this....

-The hype on this guy when he entered the league was that he would be generational
I haven't seen that yet
Yeah, this is a key factor.
I don't see how he can be the #1 RB, I really don't get it. I never had him there before the injuries, but like McGary is their 2nd best run blocker, Dalman was a top-5 NFL Center. This was an elite OL (#1 run block grade from PFF) last season, that looks decidedly average right now. We also have no idea if Penix will check down like Cousins did. Small sample size, but he had 20 receiving yards in 3 games with Penix. He averaged almost 30 per game with Cousins.
He also averaged 118 yards rushing and 2 rushing TDs in his three games with Pennix.
Right, but that's obviously unsustainable (380-2006-34) the receiving is a small concern that it could carry over. I'm not saying avoid Bijan by any means, he absolutely is a 1st round pick, but #1 overall just feels too high to me, especially given the OL downgrades.
In that small sample, Pennix moved the ball better than Cousins. Robinson had 6 rushing TDs in 3 games, plus 94, 90, 170 rushing yards. But if Penix only has eyes for London, that's a concern.
I have concerns about Gibbs and view them about equally. I'd take CMC (minority opinion) and Barkley (I'd think that's pretty normal) over both of them.
The starting RT is out 4-6 weeks, but the other 4 starting Olineman are healthy. The backup Tackle is out for longer. Charlie Woerner is an excellent blocking TE.
That was the information that was available yesterday. After I saw the projections for missed time, I checked the Footballguys depth chart which showed McGrary as a Q and Norton as a D. Sorry.
