I don't have Draughn.
It's the same Hyde that showed up for all of week 1 in 2015. the rest of the season...Who's this guy wearing Hyde's uniform?
I liked his yards after contact. The Rams are a good defense and were in the backfield quite frequently. I don't have him in many leagues, but I think he'll do well this year. This week was a mixed bag - the game situation played to his favor (SF probably won't be nursing a lot of leads) but the defense was strong.
Again unless you took DJ or Lamar Miller in the first, waiting on RB seemed to be the right strategy (unless you drafted Keenan Allen.) It's only week one but we could potentially have 3 big busts in Gurley, AP, and Freeman. Even Lacy looked bad.
He looked awesome last year too. The problem was the rest of the team and nagging injuries. Time will tell if Kelly can inject some life in the offense or if it remains a dumpster fire. So far so good though.Who's this guy wearing Hyde's uniform?
You can put Gurley and Freeman on this list but ADP will eventually start clicking just fine. He has had mostly 8 man boxes his entire career. There's a first for everything but no I don't see how he will be a bust for the entire season. The team traded for Bradford, they have a plan, things will stabilize. They lost their franchise QB 2 weeks ago, let's give them a chance and also it was Week 1 on the road. They will get much better as the season moves along IMHO.
I thought Freeman had a safe floor getting all the passing game work and most goaline touches. I May've been wrong.
Yeah. Sat him today because I expected the garbage time. Didn't expect it to go to Hyde
I have a similar group of dynasty RB's - DJ, Hyde, Henry, Dixon. I'm really just hoping he stays healthy. He seems to produce when given the chance. We'll see how this stretch of easier schedule goes, but I suspect he's going to do really well and open a lot of eyes in the next four weeks.Otis said:
Jeremy Hill's arm was in a sling and he played same week. Need to see how the week plays out before jumping to any conclusions.
To be clear here, Hill was spotted in a sling BEFORE practice, then practiced. This sounds like Hyde didn't practice today.
I could see this as well if he is in a sling. I'm less likely to go after his backup as well based on the bye week next week. You would only get 1 week of value from his backup if Hyde is out.
Non-contact jersey today again, and there's some level of uncertainty if he'll play this weekend, with Chip Kelly going so far as to say "I have no idea."
Should we be worried about missing the game. He is practicing right? Just no contact...right?
I think you should definitely be worried. No contact jerseys on Thursday practices for a RB, who get hit practically every time he touches the ball, does not look good IMO.
Depends on tomorrow's practice, in my opinion. He is practicing "in full" (i.e., taking part in every aspect of practice), just without contact. If he practices the whole week without contact though, without even testing him out in practice to see what he feels like, I put his chances at better than not that he sits this week out.
I currently have Hyde penciled in as a starter this week, but the lack of contact and Chip Kelly's comment gives me reason for pause. I agree with Moonshine: look carefully at Friday's practice report.
