RB Braelon Allen, NYJ (1 Viewer)

0.9 points. Patience, patienceeeeeeee.

Yeah, I don't know how much more I can take.
I mean he's a must hold lotto ticket like Allgeier. Don't expect anything but enjoy the dopamine high if it hits. Drop in week 17 lol
Picked him up prior to the game (and dropped T. Benson...who I will pick up later in the week). Another miss. I'll probably drop him again next week, pick him up again. Rinse repeat.
 
change in OC really hurt BA - originally he was getting alternated with Breece. Now he is mainly short yardage and a carry here and there. More of a lotto hancuff than stand alone. However if dynasty is selling Id buy as hes young and getting a starting position at some point in a few yrs,

Anyone expecting him to be truly fantasy relevant in 2024 without an injury to Hall was wishful thinking. However, he is a dynasty stash that will probably payoff big down the road, but fantasy players are short on patience. Or at least the crappy dynasty players are.

How do you explain last week?

bit of an outlier as other games with new OC have been 5, 3,2 and 4 carries.
 
Wondering if Isaiah Davis is actually the better RB than Braelen Allen. I liked the former more pre-draft, but Allen looked great for a couple minutes early this year before falling into background obscurity.

Wouldn't that be a kick in the pants.

Hold B. Allen all year, Breece finally IR'd, and I. Davis gets the run.

If my opponent in the playoffs benefits from an I. Davis I'll never handcuff again.

Davis has 5 carries for the entire season. He got 3 of his 4 total receptions last game. If Hall were to be out of picture it has to be Allen. They are fully aware that Hall is on last year of his deal next year. You'd think the logical thing would be to run Allen into the ground to really see what ya got. Right? Ha ha
 
I've held this useless guy all season and finally dropped him a couple days ago due to bye week hell. Now of course it just came out Breece is listed as doubtful for the game this weekend, so Allen should get a ton of work.

You can't make this stuff up man.
Where did you see Hall is doubful? I can pick up Allen so interested.

Its all over twitter and even on ESPN app already, you better hurry if you want to.
 
I can't believe he was sitting around on waivers in a few leagues, just scooped him up in case Hall is a no go on Sunday vs Miami
Phins are pretty giving to the RB spot on most offenses that face them
21st right now but not much difference between them and the Colts at 29th, we're talking 24-25 points a game total to opposing RBs so there is some hope if Allen were to start

-Thanks to whoever posted about Hall missing practice today, good stuff!
 
Back to back DNP for Hall this week. Allen time?

Will be interesting to see what ESPN does with his projection.

Right now, Breece is at 15 and B. Allen is at 4.1 in PPR. Let's see what % of Breece's projection they give him.

Projections don't mean s#it.
ESPN projections are apparently extremely reliable, on average. You're obviously going to have experiences where they get it wrong and it loses you a week here or there, but by and large they are the most accurate.
 
Two games with double digit carries on season. 11 and 12. Its time to see what they got. They are gonna give him 20 carries against a Miami team that can be run on. One game to shine, he doesn't hit then he splits with Davis next game without Hall. Imo

The dude projected to be in last place this year in my league after the draft is in 1st and the only one with a playoff spot so far heading into this last week. I get it, they are better than nothing, but they aren't end all be all. Anyways, I am leaning starting Allen this week. Hope he shows the world what he has!

It's uncanny, but they may not get a player's projection within a couple standard deviations, but they tend to nail a team's total score pretty darn well.

Obviously, you take any projections with a grain of salt.
 
I’ve been holding Allen for most of the year in 3/4 leagues. I could really use him in 2 of them this week. So Davis will be the guy for the Jets this week 🙄
 
I get the excitement but people are tending to forget that Rodgers just looooooves to throw from the 1 yard line. Infuriating. Of course, as a Hall shareholder, this is the week Rodgers hands off at the goalline instead.

For me its less excitement and more possible desperation. Taylor on a bye, Bucky and Walker III hurt (even Pickens hurt which makes me need the options to play and flex)

Same. Taylor bye and I'm hurting for a rb spot start. I'm also realistic. I'll be super pleased with 80 yards and a TD. Super pleased.
 
I know Allen will be the bell cow, but I’m telling you guys that I like Isaiah Davis a lot. He’s got game.
Yep. The Jets like him a lot also. They drafted him a mere round after Allen. I didnt know that till yesterday. Should be interesting how this unfolds. Nobody really knows. We just guess. Some of us hope. Ha ha

Id be ecstatic with that. Im good with a TD and 50 or so.

That's not weekly projections though. That's essentially AI-assisted yearly projections which are crap. Their weekly projections are very closely aligned with Vegas prop bets, I've found.

Been thinking about this guy as a Breece owner who couldn't get Allen because he was drafted by the resident Jets fan in my league.

Would you pick up Davis if you had to drop either Kimani Vidal or Sincere McCormick? Feels like those other two guys have a stronger shot at more valuable carries.

I wouldn't do it to drop Vidal, but I would drop McCormick. I'm only speaking from a dynasty perspective and may be different for redraft. I happen to like Davis' long term value more than McCormick, but I have to say I don't know a lot about McCormick. I did go and read up on him however.
 
Just traded my Baker Mayfield for Braelon Allen last week to a QB-needy manager to handcuff Breece!

Gotta decide whether to roll Allen out in mt flex or T. Higgins for MNF now.

Just hope there'll be some clarity sooner than later with Hall... maybe they just shut him down now.

Well he isn’t playing this Sunday so other than him not being marked out yet, that’s clear.

You saw his play last sunday? You saw him limping around? He then didn’t practice all week. He didn’t practice Friday, which is generally a bad sign to play on Sunday. They listed him as doubtful. Is there a large list of players who are listed as doubtful that play? You are optimistic that Breece Hall is playing Sunday? Am I reading this wrong?
