Harbaugh’s so full of it. Haskins is so ready to give the Chargers big runs that Jimmy gave him the ball 0 times this season before Hampton went down last week.

Yes, also a training camp setting fielding token "How's player X doing?" questions back in August. One of his horses back in Ann Arbor. What else is he going to say?
I really wish we had some conversion metrics for Haskins on 3rd / 4th & short opportunities. HIs rushing averages are bad, but I'm sure there's a lot of situational short yardage and run out the clock attempts bringing it down.

Teams typically go through the formality of testing who they have before bringing in a big name via trade. Same thing is happening as we speak with replacing Gibson in NE. LAC will make a move in the next week or two...based on what I'm hearing from DFS talking heads anyway (Establish The Run, Davis Mattek, etc.).

What I find interesting is MFL projection for Haskins is 11.4 pt this week in 0.5 ppr
For reference R White projected 11.2 and D Swift 11.9
Picked him up BB FA $35 of $200 allowance so there is that....
Almost half his carries last year were 3rd or 4th down and one. 59% were less than 3 yards to go. He was a short yardage specialist.

He scored 5 TD vs Ohio State
He's as made man as you get
Kimani will be covering kickoffs
Hymes is just a body that you need
Wheels all the way up for the next month if we can get Alt back

The question is, how'd those go? Harbaugh seems to like his big backs. So advantage Haskins if he can do big back things well.
Also working in his favor, Vidal had a carry inside the 5 and was stuffed prior to the interception when the Chargers were driving down 10. I'll be surprised if it's not Haskins getting all or most of the goal line carries, which is really reason enough if you're deploying one of them in your lineup week 6.

Summarizing dfs takes I've seen: Haskins on 1st and 2nd down, Vidal as the pass catching back on 3rd down. Vidal the better athelete. Haskins with the Harbaugh connection. Neither impresses. Jerome Ford to the white courtesy phone next monday.

My only counter to this: did you see the dolphins run defense last week?
For sure, great matchup. I don’t mean to say I wouldn’t start him, especially this week. In fact, this would be the week I’d surely be starting him if I got him off waivers.

It was a trick question. No one saw the fins run defense last week

They were the where's Waldo of run defenses.

I like it better when I didn't get any info in the 90s and had to make my own calls instead of being swayed by stuff like this that just screws you

Can we glean anything Hampton wise from this?
