RB Dylan Laube, LV (1 Viewer)

This guy is interesting. Small school, decent size, good strength, very good pass catcher, and a very weak depth chart to contend with. Not sure he has the interior running chops, but definitely can be a weapon of sort in the passing game.

Plenty of buzz right now among scouts & agent community about @UNH_Football RB Dylan Laube (5100v, 203v) after his NCAA record 295-yard receiving game.
What’ll interest NFL teams most is Laube’s versatility in pass game as sub-downs back who can motion out of backfield and be slot mismatch creator.
His ability to run detached routes & track ball downfield are impressive.

Yeah I def think he could carve out a role as the 3rd down back & possibly contribute as a returner
Pretty basic one-cut and go as a runner, not elusive but good athletic profile
Definitely a good situation for him & off to a good start, he's already had a couple good days at TC

He was one of my late-round targets in deep rookie drafts or as a waiver pickup. He's a long shot, but there's a world where he is startable in PPR.

I’m in. He’s my hunch guy I bought into with all of my dynasty leagues this year.
What I am expecting and hoping to hit on is Jaleel McLaughlin from last year. As a rookie he’ll be sharing time, though Zeus and Mattison don’t scare me long term. Laube should at least get his shots on third down like McLaughlin where he gets flexible by a point.
Just like McLaughlin is being seen this year with a clear role for the Broncos, that’s where I hope where we are at this point next year for him.
So consider the return rule changes this year. It’s entirely possible he earns a role on that front and becomes flex worthy earlier in the season.

Laube is getting 1st team looks as our 3rd down back. I think he not only lands a spot on the 53 week one, but will play meaningful snaps down the stretch. He's the perfect compliment to Zeus.

He may even be a threat to Zeus. Temper everything until we see him against regular season bullets, but Laube has a poor man's McCaffrey profile. Probably not in year one, but if this guy is able to run between the tackles, he is exactly the type of RB modern offenses covet.

Laube is my top preseason watch. His skillset in the passing game is one of the best in this rookie class. One of the issues with that is the Raiders already have a really good chess piece in Bowers and I am not confident they have creativity and play design to maximize what Laube can do. If he proves he can run interior effectively he has a shot at gaining a share of the load as he is more multi-dimensional than anyone on the depth chart. He is a guy who could really standout this preseason and at minimum raise his value for dynasty players.

Really haven't heard what he's doing in camp, but has not shown a thing in preseason games.
Has not been the #1 KO return man. Everyone expects he makes the team, but I won't be shocked if he's cut.

Lots of reports here and elsewhere he's had a solid camp. He'll have a small role if any to start the season, but getting cut would be very surprising.

Can't make the club from the tub
He made the club.
But . . . you can't score touchdowns from the players' lounge
You need to be in uniform and active on game day.

This team is not exactly an offensive juggernaut. Mattison looks to be the best back in the team but they keep ramming Zamir against a wall for 2.5 ypc.
Which might mean this guy gets a shot later or it's not worth it even if he does.

I think his game would play big with Minshew
Active this week ? I think so!

Raiders report: Running back’s injury could elevate Alexander Mattison
Starting running back Zamir White was already in danger of ceding carries to Alexander Mattison before White suffered a groin injury during Wednesday’s practice.

Sounds like he may get a chance at some touches for those who have a spot to burn to see if it turns into anything.

Uninspiring result there. What kind of spice is Sincere McCormick? Never heard of him…

Sounds like one of those perfumes you pass by in a department store as you enter the mall.

Sincere McCormick was born to a 15 year mom named Precious. Grew up with a variety of living situations, at one time being homeless - living in Precious' car and taking showers at a construction site trailer (where his mom was a security guard.) Mom is now a Walmart manager with a side hustle cutting hair. Practice squad players make a little over $200K per year.
Laube now has 43 ST snaps and one on offense, vs the Steelers. Not happening this year, eh.

That fumble on his only snap put quite a dent in his doghouse or there’s something else we don’t know about.

It was a beautiful punch out by TJ Watt.

Nice 59-yard return and the absolute pine to go with it.
Antonio Pierce is a joke. I’m a Laube dynasty holder, but this has more to do with watching that clown try to run a ship. Adams isn’t the only guy to wonder about the Raiders and how they run things. Pierce is the kind of guy that makes you have a redshirt year just because.
That type of dude.
