It will take some time, but once he gets the pass pro down, he will be very fantasy relevant. He looked like the much superior running back tonight when the ball was in his hands.
This is probably correct but given that this team is constantly in a hole they need someone who can block and it sounds like that may keep Mason off the field.That fat plodder, stacy, is finally being exposed for what he is
A fraud.
A benefactor of volume.
I said Mason would take over this job by week 6-8. I was wrong
But it seems it may be soon regardless
Very nice!Tre La Soul
Yeah, not pretty. I think all we can do now is just see if he passes the eye test and compare how he does relative to the other backs on the team. I don't see him blowing up like an Oliver. This may be a long, gradual process.In their next 6 games they face 5 top 10 run Ds. Sea, @KC, @SF, @Ari, Den and @SD. :X
Fisher lost his starting QB and the schedule is brutal, yet they are still being competitive in their losses (except the horrific opener). The talent on the defense is there, but takes time to put together. Firing Fisher now would be a terrible decision.Tanner9919 said:superior talent,and possibly the only thing to spare Fisher's job at the end of the year, is for Mason to become a top tier RB the remainder of the season, and get this offense headed in the right direction..
it's evident they need a running game in the worst way,and they've finally found it in Mason...it's time to pound him at opposing defenses..

Making his NFL debut, Rams rookie RB Tre Mason rushed for 40 yards on five carries in St. Louis' Week 6 loss to San Francisco on Monday night, adding one catch for 12 yards.
Mason had been a healthy scratch each of the first four games of the season. He entered the game in the first quarter, taking the place of Trey Watts as the No. 3 back behind Zac Stacy and Benny Cunningham. Mason turned his first NFL touch into a 12-yard gain in the red zone. His first carry went for 27 yards and would have likely gone for a touchdown if Brian Quick hadn't gotten in the way downfield. Mason showed that it's clear he has the most talent as a runner in the Rams' backfield. Stacy and Cunningham are plodders in the Shonn Greene mold and haven't showed anything to keep Mason off the field. Mason is worth a look in 12- and 14-team leagues. This is the same time Stacy entered the fantasy picture last season.

Are you not sure it's not going to not amount to nothing? If not, How not not sure are you?This is not going to amount to nothing for FF. Get away from this entire backfield if you still can guys.
Like how RW talked up Stacy last season and this pre-season but now calls him a plodder.Rotoworld:

I'll add Mason for CJ Anderson in my last bench spot...why not.This is not going to amount to nothing for FF. Get away from this entire backfield if you still can guys.
who's to say what will happen RB wise...no one predicted Stacy would emerge last year. a guy gets injured, someone becomes inactive. You have to keep firing bullets at guys with upside and if doesn't work for a week or two you retread them. Snagged Beckham a couple weeks back who may help out my team, grabbed Oliver a week before he broke out....you never know but I'd rather be early and miss than be late. Unless you're at the bottom of the waiver wire you have no shot at Mason if he goes out next week and have 12-81-1 next week.What are your saying??Are you not sure it's not going to not amount to nothing? If not, How not not sure are you?This is not going to amount to nothing for FF. Get away from this entire backfield if you still can guys.

This is a mess. The Rams have a good group of RBs. That's great for the NFL, but useless for FF. Even Tavon Austin is getting carries now. By my count that's 4 backs in the stable with an unpredictable coach. You can't logically make anything more out of this. Mason looked like fresh legs( and a weak pass blocker), but he's not going to be a factor getting 3-7 touches a game. He's not Antone Smith.

Agree. All the same things were being said about this same team at this time last year.

I guess... I'd rather stay away. I don't see a reason for Fisher to change what he's did vs SF last night. It could have easily been T. Austin, or any of the other handful of RBs, with a big play or two and we would not care about Mason today.Agree. All the same things were being said about this same team at this time last year.

I don't know...what I look for are unstable situations and a guy with talent that could potentially emerge and the settle the situation. Fisher likes to have a guy and run with them but no one is running away with the job and week by week Cunningham is chipping away at Stacy but landing no death blows. Neither Cunningham or Stacy has a run for 20+ yards on the year in 95 carries and Mason runs for 24 yards on his first career carry.I guess... I'd rather stay away.

that was a dynasty league I'm sure, not a redraft and there's a thread on every player here. Tre Mason has an 11 page thread and he was inactive for 4 games and has 4 career carries. whatever. the point being that even everyone knows everything that once in a while there are situations that surprise people and players emerge that weren't expected to and that there's value on trying to get in early while they are cheap.Seriously?

It was dramatic lol. Cunningham is the best of the bunch to me so I won't mention him for the sake of being objective. Really? Austin looked fine. I'm just saying he is a factor in the run game as well. They seem committed to getting him involved in the game. We know he's a threat to take any touch to the house. Let's not ack like he's some fatass plotter too.cunningham looked fine on a 1yd carry?Cunningham look fine on a TD. T. Austin is at 11.4 yards a clip for his career.

Austin looked like crap yesterday... and he is NOT a running back.
Fine? Shotty sucks, always has always will. One reason he gets jobs and its not his talent.shotty is fine. Gregg Williams is terrible...terrible hire by fish....Yeah, I think Fisher is safe. Shotty should be gone though.Fisher lost his starting QB and the schedule is brutal, yet they are still being competitive in there losses (except the horrific opener). The talent on the defense is there, but takes time to put together. Firing Fisher now would be a terrible decision.Tanner9919 said:superior talent,and possibly the only thing to spare Fisher's job at the end of the year, is for Mason to become a top tier RB the remainder of the season, and get this offense headed in the right direction..
it's evident they need a running game in the worst way,and they've finally found it in Mason...it's time to pound him at opposing defenses..
Last night collapse doesn't bode well fo him either
No, Austin is definitely a player - but I cant see him ever being more than a 2-4 carry a game guy. He'll get destroyed
Mason, imo, is a better runner and talent than Stacy and Cunningham... I can see your argument for Cunningham, but I dont agree with your conclusion.
The cream always rises to the top... and Mason is whipping cream.
Dropping Davis for Mason seems a bit crazySomeone dropped Knile Davis for him. Some people feel he offers a bit of upside.
