Judkins did it in just 2 games and only 28 attempts.
No training camp, first game as a pro, he aint even warmed up yet ....beastGoing in this season, I was too concerned about Cleveland Browns' terrible offense with possibility of horrendous OL. I was worried that they would preclude Judkins decent rushing lanes or holes but man, watching him run angry vs. Packers last Sunday was sight to behold. I just hope he stays healthy with now on getting defensive attention.

I have liked Golden’s burst when he catches the ball, hopefully they start feeding him more. Judkins is a good back, but there are hurdles there. They lost a starting tackle for the year and their aging line line is aging. If Flacco gets sat teams will start stacking the line. Although he has performed (and I drafted him in dyno at six so have vested interest), he has a bit of an uphill battle ahead of him.He looked awesome. Really thought he would do well, but with the need for WR in my dynasty went with Matthew Golden. Regretting that move quite a bit at the moment haha.
Sounds like Godwin is back this week? If you can start 3 RBs, I might consider waiting a bit before making that move.Anyone that would trade Judkins for Allen in ppr raise your hand.
You have Gibbs , Kyren /Corum and judkins at RB
Ngigba and not much at WR. Godwin, Coker, Tucker, Tillman

Judkins - 19 touches
Ford - 4 touches
Sampson - 1 touch
This is in no way, shape or form, a RBBC. This backfield belongs to Judkins, and he is a must start unless you are completely stacked at RB.
True at last the two weeks you could say that Love has cost him some big plays due to some misfires/poor placement.I have liked Golden’s burst when he catches the ball, hopefully they start feeding him more.

Looking matchup proof. He’s a stud.Sat him for Hall because of the matchups. I don't think he'll see my bench again anytime soon.
O line doing him little favors alsoHe makes this team so much better. Too bad they have no QB.
Quinshon Judkins rushed 21 times for 82 yards and a touchdown in the Browns’ Week 4 loss to the Lions, adding four catches for 33 yards.
Judkins was once again one of the only bright spots on a dismal Cleveland offense. He paced the team in yards from scrimmage and scored their only touchdown. Judkins also led the way in receptions despite finishing fourth on the team in targets. The Browns gave Jerome Ford and Dylan Sampson one carry each. Neither of them gained a yard. Judkins is a workhorse back and the Browns should create a more favorable game script for him next week versus the Vikings. Judkins is flying up the RB2 ranks ahead of Week 5.

Hello, Quinshon Judkins#DawgPound

NFL Sunday Week 5 Play 5
My NFL Play of The Week
Quinshon Judkins 94.5 Rush+Rec Yds “O” (-112 DK)
Love the upside here for Judkins against this Minnesota defense who looked horrendous last week against a backup Gainwell.
Judkins has come in and taken over this Browns backfield seeing 18+ attempts in his first two games as the lead back. We all know how much Stefanski relies on this run game and with a Rookie RB who has shown his tenacity I see a big upside here in Sundays game.
A rookie also starting at QB gives this play a ton of upside as well for the receiving portion of this prop as they will do a ton of quick outs and screen plays that could lead to huge plays for Judkins.
Seen a ton of other cappers on his rushing yds, but the upside here for receiving makes this play even better in my opinion.
Gainwell rushed for 99 yds last week on 19 attempts we can expect similar numbers here for Judkins who is younger, faster, and stronger than Gainwell. He is looking to make a name for himself this season and Sunday is a great opportunity to do so against a piss poor run defense.
A rookie QB, needs to be comfortable in the situation Judkins will be utilized a ton in Sundays contest.
I like the optimism as I need to start QJ, but Pitt also had Rodgers and DK to contend with. Say what you will about AR, he can still make you pay. Will Dillon Gabriel present the same threat?@FantasyPros

Cannot complain about what I have seen since he took over as their lead Running Back, he looks like he could be a Top 10 RB going into 2026I really wanted that TD damnit! Still, he looks explosive, he's the real deal.
The one thing I hope to see is just a little pass usage. He probably won’t ever be. a fixture in the passing game but a couple dump offs and a screen would be nice.Cannot complain about what I have seen since he took over as their lead Running Back, he looks like he could be a Top 10 RB going into 2026I really wanted that TD damnit!

He will e drafted in the 1st couple rounds next season
Anyone who drafted him this season wherever got a good deal

He was pacing for 30+ carries, need some gas for 2nd half."They can't stop our young stud RB, so what should we do? I KNOW, take him out of the game!"
Kevin Stefanski I guess.![]()
He's got 8 carries? Now he's pacing for 16. After he broke that long TD that was called back he had 1 carry. Unless he got hurt it's puzzling why they went away from him completely. It's not like anything else was working.He was pacing for 30+ carries, need some gas for 2nd half."They can't stop our young stud RB, so what should we do? I KNOW, take him out of the game!"

We can hope. With the lead and Wentz questionable to return hoping for a favorable game script. Browns seem to shoot themselves in a foot a lot though.He was pacing for 30+ carries, need some gas for 2nd half."They can't stop our young stud RB, so what should we do?

Thought he had 8 at the end of first, maybe I misread. Not watching he game…now bummed he had a long TD called back though..He's got 8 carries? Now he's pacing for 16.

I assume they have some concerns still about his pass protection and ability as a receiver- especially given he has only been with the team a few weeks.There's no logical reason to have Ford in the game instead of him. Loved his usage in the 1st quarter. His usage in the 2nd quarter is a bit concerning. But hoping for big dividends in the second half
They were 3 point favourites.QJ sat for a bit after that long run (bloody refs). After that it looked to me like QJ was in there but often blocking. Rookie QB, no fault there, & they’re winning & people were expecting a Vikes blowout.
There's so many plays it seems he's just one guy away from breaking one. It's only a matter of timereally good vision.
Yep he is still getting his sea legs. By the end of this month, he should be fully comfortable and making some plays that he is just missing out on now.There's so many plays it seems he's just one guy away from breaking one. It's only a matter of timereally good vision.
He went 1.08 in my league. I had 1.09 and the person who took him just asked me for a late 3rd to swap Judkins for that 1.09 pick. Was a no brainier for me.Really glad I drafted this guy at 1.08 (rookie draft) when others were scared off. Can’t believe there are people who watched this guy play and somehow saw him as a JAG. Dude is so so explosive.
and they threw the ball his way a couple times in the 2nd half. Upside is obviously capped by the offense but he looks like a real safe weekly start.Three straight games of 100 total yards or a TD.
He is for real

Oh no, was a near-insta accept. Had a great draft. Got Hampton, Judkins, Golden, J Higgins and Fannin. Louisville QB was a wasted pick but it happens.He went 1.08 in my league.

The way I read your tone in that sentence I thought you said no to the guy. I was tell you to ask me next time or something
