To be fair, Perkins went out and Gallman was the last guy standing.I think gallman had more touches last week than darkwa has had all season

Same hereHad Gallman in all week, benching him for A. Jones right now.
This can be a silly gameAmazing this is happening considering the Giants reluctance to use Darkwa in the past. This ability has been there since last year, for some reason they just decided to rely on him a) off a back injury b) after the other RB had the best RB performance of the year.
Unreal.
There are reasons.Starting him bc of the match up. I don't understand picking up someone and then not starting them until they "show something". You might as well be chasing pts in that case.
That's fine. IMO it's silly, but YMMV. Your team, not mine.There are reasons.
Gallman definitely will have an impact in PPR leagues. Now he'll have another shot to cement a role.Darkwa is hurt and gallman looks amazing in the passing game
RZ here too.Only able to see little bits of this game when Red Zone switches over but he looks solid and catches the ball really well. Dakwa also was getting his ankle worked on during that last drive on sidelines.
Look at the actual game thread.RZ here too.
What's up with Engram? Anyone?
Big workload, can he do anything with it though? His passing game work elevates his floor IMHO at least, but he's going to be in a tough situation.Wayne Gallman rushed 11 times for 57 yards in the Giants' Week 5 loss to the Chargers, adding five receptions for 25 additional yards.
Orleans Darkwa got the start, and the two backs rotated evenly for the game's first 4-5 series. Gallman slowly took over as Darkwa battled a calf injury. Both backs were ripping chunk gains against the Chargers' soft run defense. With Darkwa's health looking uncertain for Week 6, Gallman could be in for a huge workload for an offense that lost four of its top five receivers on Sunday.
Don't know if I "like" him, but I'm rolling with him in a half-PPR league that gives nice bonuses for RBs getting over 25 yards receiving. I lost Burkhead. No other reasonable options.Anyone like Gallman as a desperation play in PPR this week? He seems to be the lead guy in this committee now and has 6 and 7 catches in the last 2 weeks...unfortunately, he does have a tough matchup, and no idea if this reception trend will continue.
Just made that move myself. Possible #1 back playing for next year's job over an entrenched #2 coming off a concussion.Considering over Tevon Coleman in PPR...
Yeah he's locked and loaded over Coleman. And, in another game, I may consider him at flex over Robbie Anderson and Demarious. I mean, this kid might catch 7 balls and hasn't looked half bad...Just made that move myself. Possible #1 back playing for next year's job over an entrenched #2 coming off a concussion.

Funny, almost made the exact same decision here. Ended up starting gallman and Coleman over Henry.Yeah he's locked and loaded over Coleman. And, in another game, I may consider him at flex over Robbie Anderson and Demarious. I mean, this kid might catch 7 balls and hasn't looked half bad...
I did. I lost Barkley and had to spend most of my FAAB to get Gallman. I didn't have much of a choice, it was either do that or overpay for a RB in a trade. I had Barkley and Henry as my starters, while my bench was thin...I lost Coleman Week 1 to a HAS, L Murray has been a bust so far and Barber is a JAG.Who just scooped this guy up and is ready... (for disappointment)
His situation has definitely improved: better OL and QB (hopefully), and a crappier D. At least that's what I told myself last night as I bid about 60% of my FAAB on him.Maybe he has improved? He sucked big time last chance he got
