RB Joshua Kelley, LAC (5 Viewers)

[Kruegs]

Anyone else ready to drop Kelley to pick up Jerome Ford?

This is my plan.

If you don't have anyone else to drop then sure, but I'd try to hang onto Kelley and get Ford by dropping someone else if you can. Kelley is going to have acontributing role in that offense all season, even when Ekeler is back

Im not dropping. Might even start this week with Ekeler having no timeline on his return.

yeah, that’s my quandary- I don’t have anyone else to drop. Lost Saquon, but can’t IR him. Waiting for Kamara to come back from suspension. Have Pollard. Kelley is the only droppable guy I have- and as much as I hate being impatient, Ford feels like more of the play.

Sorry to hijack the thread with my personal story, but trying to get a read on who has the better fantasy upside. My gut says Ford

One rough game against a top rush defense and bottom falls out? Ill buy low especially as an Ekeler owner who couldnt cuff at draft

I think that would be a no-brainer for them last week. Now, not as much. But it's a fair offer, and that's rare in my leagues. Kudos.

 

[Judge Smails]

Holding Kelley. Ekeler owner. Still believe in their rushing attack

 

[JohnnyU]

The window to sell, other than to the Exeler owner, has come and gone for now. That could change, but probably not. You won't even get much from the Exeler owner I don't think.

That means the buy window is open!

Kelley had an excellent W1, let everyone down W2, and everyone is jumping ship. That sounds about right.

Whether worth it or not, the trade value, or lack thereof is real. So if you think he is a buy knock yourself out.

Last week was a terrible matchup this week is a dream matchup if Ekeler is out fire up Kelley with confidence.

That's what I'm doing.

Prob a decent matchup even if eckler plays

If Ekeler is out again, Joshua Kelley is going to be a smash play against the Vikings

Don’t let last weeks brutal matchup against the Titans deter you

The Vikings just let up 175 yards to D’Andre Swift last week

Kelley played 79% of snaps and handled 72% of Chargers RB carries

[TampaMike19]

debating Zack moss over him but honestly the matchup sucks and moss is basically what Kelley was post week 1. You’d just like to see it happen again for moss but this weekend is equally bad a matchup as Kelley had last week. These guys are nice matchup based rb2s

 

[Ilov80s]

With Saquon out, I pretty much have no choice. I couldn’t pull the trigger on putting Breida in against the 49ers.

 

[zoonation]

RB2 game incoming this week. Brutal matchup last week.

Smart move, he got lucky with the TD.

 

[TommyKramer9]

With Saquon out, I’m debating between Kelley or James Cook this week. Starting to lean towards Kelley in a soft matchup vs my Vikings

I think the bills will struggle to run vs wash. That seems like a low scoring game to me

Would you drop Tyjae Spears or Roschon Johnson for Kelley?

How is Kelley on waivers? Anyway, yeah sure Kelley is starting this week, those other guys aren't. So if you need an RB I say drop one of those guys and pick up Kelley. Either one is a fine drop but I like Spears more than Roschon in redraft.

OK, thanks. I pulled the trigger on that. He's actually not a FA till tomorrow so we will see. He's a FA now in my other league, but i'd nee dto drop Moss, JSN, or Akers to get him. Not much bench room there with both Kupp and J Taylor on IR for a couple more weeks.

 

[TommyKramer9]

Easily

What about Z. Moss, JSN, or Akers in my other league?

I’d rather have Moss since I doubt Taylor will be playing for the Colts this year which means the job is Moss’s to lose, but I’d take Kelley over Akers. It’s unclear how Akers will fit in to MN this year and if he’ll take over lead back duties from Mattison or not. Kelley seems to have a clear valuable role even when Ekeler is healthy. Think of it like Pollard (Ekeler) & Zeke (Kelley) on the Cowboys the past couple seasons. I’m not sure who JSN is

 

[jobarules]

Firing him up over Gabe Davis again even though it almost burned me last week. Tennessee is on a historic run as a run defense since last year plus I like how he played 80% of the snaps.

 

[Rubi]

I hear The King singing..."It's now or never..."

 

[LionOfGosforth]

Benching Swift for this cat, hoping last week was simply Tenn being very good at what they do.

Kelley will be a top 12 RB this week go with him

 

[Deamon]

RB2 game incoming this week. Brutal matchup last week.

I believe so too. 21 for 79 and a td. 5 for 33 in the air.

 

[Tanner9919]

absolute stud RB this week vs. Vikes. Ford is going to get his stats this season, but temper expectations against Tenn , at least a little bit. whats the over in the games, is is like a 15 pt difference? take the guy in the game with the higher over. Kelley has Minny and Raiders next two weeks IIRC. juicy gum

 

[bcat01]

Start him over Jacobs or Kyren W?
