What are the odds that Charbs overtakes Walker?

Listen to this and tell me what you think?

It seems like Walker IS the ugh bell cow.

We all do it, but it’s so funny how we hear what we want to hear. How do you get “Walker is the bell cow” from that clip? (I’m a Walker owner too btw)

The coach was asked about Walker, said a few nice things, then referred to getting the ball into THEIR hands, getting THEM involved, getting the ball to their best runnerS. Then went out of his way to mention that other runners compliment Walker well, “especially Charbonnet.”

And he’s right. Walker may be better at some, or many things, but the coach clearly likes and has a plan for Charbonnet as well, or he wouldn’t have felt compelled to mention him specifically. If anything, that clip infers Walker will not have a bell cow role.

Maybe I misheard what the coach was saying. I heard a lot of praise for Walker and zero about Charbs.

I’m actually a Charbs owner…how did you get that I’m a Walker owner?

I guess we all misinterpret things from time to time.

You did not mishear anything.

When the coach goes on and on about Walker and then mentions other RB's who compliment him, where he did say "espcially Charbonnett" that's crystal clear to me who the primary RB and secondary RB on the team is.

I'd probably not have phrased it as "bell cow" but that's subjective.

The coach was asked specifically about Walker, so he said a few nice things about him first. I wouldn’t say he went on and on. He actually shifted the answer to RBs in plural form (them, they, runners) relatively quickly, before specifically mentioning Charbonnet.

I agree that Walker is the lead RB. Everyone agrees on that. The question is how big of a “complimentary” role will Charb have? A 60/40 split could be considered complimentary. I don’t think that clip clarifies anything at all is all I’m saying.

Not exactly, the reason I posted that clip was in response to someone asking what are the odds that Charbs seizes the main job so there are people are people who are not so sure.

Yeah, I suppose that’s true.

Sadly the ship on trading KW has long sailed. This group of rookies and a deep FA class renders him worthless.

I am curious to see how things shake out with touch split this year. Charbs to me is consistent and deserves more touches. I don't hate KW but maybe he would be better in a more limited role?

Worthless? Dramatic, much?

I was referring to his trade value not his playing value. You coudnt trade him for a bag of chips right now.

I actually like the guy as a player but with the injuries I would like see see more of Charbs.

I’ve got a lot of interest in Charbs since I drafted him last year. Some of that is that I got him at a good price and his contract is attractive.
