RB Saquon Barkley, PHI (7 Viewers)

[Soulfly3]

potentially the best receiving RB in the league, who was brutally misused, is going to be a focus in the passing game?

i cannot believe my eyes

 

[LawFitz]

potentially the best receiving RB in the league

CMC, Breece and Gibbs in the mix, but yes, potentially.

Bijon a sneaker sleeper.

Kamara and Ekeler would be there too, but they have grandkids now. Supposedly.

CMC, Breece and Gibbs in the mix, but yes, potentially.

CMC the only guy I put at or above his level... But we've never gotten a chance to truly see his level in the NFL. All I know is he's run 1000 routes, 998 of them he's been open on.

 

[LawFitz]

he's run 1000 routes, 998 of them he's been open

Thousand routes aside, my one eye says Gibbs and I (maybe) think Bijon are on the level. Breece too, sort of.

None of this to challenge Sayquads on the Iggles. Downside is downside for weathered 27 (lol) yr old RBs. I agree his upside is RB1 overall.

I don't understand why people say Saquon is an old RB with high tread. He's younger than CMC and has 400 less touches than CMC who also has an injury history. Barkley's rush attempts don't even put him in the top 10 of active players. I think the Eagles are going to get at least 2, but probably 3 really good seasons out of Barkley.

From your lips to Barkley's quads....

if we are lucky we could get more than that but i would be good with 2-3

Out of curiosity, do we assume that rush attempts are much more taxing than receptions? Just wondering how to consider total rush attempts vs total touches.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Back at practice today after leaving early yesterday to get his back looked at; no concerns but hope we see a dip off this.

 

[Faust]

Eagles bucked a trend by betting big on RB Saquon Barkley. Here's why they're confident it'll pay off.

RB2 on MoP's late-May Rankings
Boys, you're majorly discounting the offense he is about to inherit
I'm sorry but other than CMC there isn't a RB that would excite me as much as Saquon

In 30 games last 2 seasons he has racked up 2,900 total yds, he's good for at least 100-120 yds rush/rec a week for Philly
2,000 rush/rec not off the table IMHO, there's not another RB on the roster in the same category with Saquon
Could be a Top 3 RB for touches this year, don't see him being pulled often

Maybe I am on the HIGH side but I foresee Barkley feasting a lot in this Offense, opp to take him on the 1/2 turn would be too much to pass up
And think of the pairings you can create with him and another RB or two to make an explosive RB tandem/stable depending on how many you can start

Nice start to the season

 

[BlackCrowes]

Seemed like he requested to go off and didn’t come back.

 

[Drunken Cowboy]

Seemed like he requested to go off and didn’t come back.

That was an ACL injury risky hit

 

[Dez]

Paul Charchian gives Barkley and 8th round redraft grade for this year. "Barkley is cooked I would rather have Zamir White, Stevenson and Johnathan Brooks" and he doesn't mean because of "value" he means he would take them over Barkley if they were all still on the board in round 8.

Aging well

 

[GreenNGold]

It's only less than 1 game... but he is looking like a league winner so far!

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Paul Charchian must love this game.

 

[The Frankman]

Saquon Barkley rushed 24 times for 109 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles’ Week 1 win over the Packers, adding two receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown.

The Eagles’ offense got off to a slow start with two turnovers through eight plays and Barkley had lost two yards on his two rush attempts. He then silenced the washed allegations with an 18-yard, over-the-shoulder grab in the end zone for his first touchdown as an Eagle. Barkley continued making splash plays for the remainder of the game, primarily on the ground. He scored his second touchdown from 11 yards and punched in a third touchdown from the two-yard line. Barkley nearly scored a fourth touchdown on a 34-yard dash to end the fourth quarter but was brought down by Green Bay’s final line of defense. You couldn’t have asked for a better debut from the former superstar and it’s fair to say he seems to have regained that status in Philly. Barkley will rank as a top-five fantasy back for his Week 2 matchup with the Falcons.

... well I'm going outside to climb a mountain and stare at the full moon for awhile..

*looks out window*

The moon isn't out tonight.

[RaidersAreOne]

Gulp. Maybe I should have taken him at #9 over AJ Brown...

 

[kutta]

Digging this start.
Now they just have to get away from the silly tush push and he’ll really rock.

@32BeatWriters
Yeah, I don't think we have to worry about Barkley getting sniped in the red zone.

took Hall 1.08 and Saquon 2.13....i was told Gibbs/Achane was a FAR better 2nd pick and I was hood winked.

And I’m trying to figure out the math of having the 1.08 and 2.13…

10 team, I picked 8th....snake, so 2nd round Barkley....3rd pick in 2nd....whatever the f that is 2.03?

My RB2 behind Bijan in auction.

I Missed that last long run last night and caught it on the highlights this morning. Not that I’m picking nits… but cannot believe he didn’t take that to the house by angling left or right rather than trying to go straight through the defender.

Easier said than done from my couch.

 

[Brunell4MVP]

Man that clip of Schoen smirking at Mara when he said he didn't want to lose Barkely to Philly ... woof. It's not so much he didn't keep Barkley. He probably would have been killed behind the OL Schoen put together. It's more how smug he was to his owner. I don't see him lasting the year.

 

[menobrown]

I’m doing 3 drafts today with retroactive stats and won’t be surprised if he goes 1.1 in some of them.

Thought the same thing. He had him on his heels and I yelled push him down live . Looked like he could’ve just stiff armed him over too

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Only have 1 share - never had a shot at him anywhere else. Took him at the 1-2 turn drafting from 12 in an NFFC league. Thought that was my worst team. Maybe not. Dude’s a beast.

All that concern about RBs changing teams and seeing a stat decline - yeah, no one told Saquon.

 

[cross1420]

Love this for Barkley, he did his best out in NY and all they had to do was pay him what he's worth. I knew the moment the NY giants paid Jones they were going to lose him. I wish he went to any team but the eagles or cowboys, but here we are lol. It's gonna hurt cheering for the eagles to score TD's this year as he is one of my keepers. But he looks like his usual great self. Strong burst and cuts while pushing defenders back. Almost hit 4 TD's in one game and critics had him only getting 5-6 for the year b/c of the 'tush push' lol. They are going to learn fast to abandon that tush push and just give Barkley the rock.

 

[need2know]

People laughed at me when i took him second overall in a redraft. Whos laughing now

 

[menobrown]

Update. He is, going top 4 in most of them.

 

[Drunken Cowboy]

He is going in the top 3 in FFPC drafts since the game. I have 1.3 in a few hours. I am thinking about it.

Saquon Barkley 'dropped the ball' in Eagles' loss: 'Let my team down'

Feel bad for him, but it shouldn't take away from the fact that he's a major reason why they are (almost) 2-0. As the article says, while the drop was brutal, it's not like he let the Falcons come all the way down the field and score.

In any event, a motivated Barkley is good for our fantasy teams.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Maybe he was expecting the pass to be a yard behind him, like the previous one

At this point he seems like almost a lock for #1 or #2 scoring RB this year if he stays healthy.

 

[BlackCrowes]

Imagine if they really start throwing to him

 

[Soulfly3]

he really deserves this after all those wasted years

Paul Charchian gives Barkley and 8th round redraft grade for this year. "Barkley is cooked I would rather have Zamir White, Stevenson and Johnathan Brooks" and he doesn't mean because of "value" he means he would take them over Barkley if they were all still on the board in round 8.

Un-Do The Opposite!

<p>Regular listeners know Charch has spent nearly two decades urging fantasy players to adopt a Do The Opposite draft strategy. But there's always a breaking point in which a runner's value is so good, he enters "must draft" territory. Charch and Mat break down the runners currently being taken...

player.fm

So if anyone wants to take a listen fast forward to the 26 min mark of this podcast from 14 weeks ago and Paul Charchian who is well known fantasy football guy for decades tells you how he Barkley is cooked and how he would take Zamir White, Stevenson and Brooks over him.
