Trent Richardson (1 Viewer)

I have a feeling this is the week all the fantasy doubters are going to see why college football enthusiasts were so high on Richardson.
Same. He's been an almost unanimous "sit" on many expert sites. I think it's a ballsy call seeing as how he's going to touch the ball 20+ times. Here's to hoping my buy-low doesn't stay low. :banned:
 
Seems to be a lot of over-complicating the situation. As someone said before the season started, the value of a running back (and players generally) is opportunity plus talent. There's probably only half a dozen or so running backs this year who aren't in some sort of shared situation. Richardson is one of them. And he has talent. So whatever you think of the team generally or the teams he's scheduled against, he should finish no lower than the top 12 of RBs at the end of the season.
I can't say if he has NFL talent yet (at least not upper echelon talent) but you are correct, he has the opportunity to be a 3 down 20 touch/game back which is something special in fantasy circles. He went 3.09 in my 12 teamer which seems about right to me. If he were on even a half way decent team he would/should have gone much sooner.
 
With Garcon likely out, starting him over Lafell in flex spot simply based on the amount of touches he's likely to get.

 
I'm sure GreenNGold will be right in here to own up to how wrong he was and to admit to the pitfalls of hubris. What a freaking #####.

 
Seriously would like to see that guy own up to his statements in this thread. About having to insult people to get their attention because they are so small-minded to believe in this guy. Mr Mega Bust himself. Dude should be banned just for his general #####-ness.

 
I was wrong about T-Rich. He wasn't quite as good as I originally planned, but he also wasn't as terrible as I thought after week 1 either. I think he ends up in the RB15 to 19ish range.

I've always owned up when I have been wrong. He's looking much better this week than I was expecting. He is not some homerun pick yet. You can't ignore last week and we still need to see how the rest of the season goes, but yes, he looks really good so far today. If that play holds up the next few weeks I am definitely wrong.

I can ignore last week, he mised the preseason after surgery. At least you are admitting you were too quick to bash Richardson.
 
i traded murray to get richardson in my ppr dynasty a few days ago. like i said earlier in the week, richardsons value will never be lower than it was this week for the next few years.

 
Yes, trade him while there are still some owners out there foolish enough to pay for him. Sorry to say it, but you got burned.
Every single one of your posts lately seems to have been about how little you like Trent Richardson, outside of being a #### in the QB having a baby thread. So I think it's safe to say that you're the furthest thing from an impartial poster that there is, and you're mainly talking to yourself. Nobody wants to engage you in discussion when this is all you being to the table.....ever.
No, I just know how easy it is for people to get caught in false hope with a nobody. See Mark Ingram last year. If I stopped just one person from ruining their season by drafting this scrub, or can convince just one person to trade this scrub while he still has some value then my job is done.
I hope you aren't planning on making a living with this job.
 
Looks like a top 5 back. What an absolute beast to bring down. He's gonna have some unbelievalble runs.

 
Impressive game by Richardson. I love the moves after the catch he made to score a TD.

I still have issues with the coaching staff but Richardson looks more than capable of overcoming them. I guess the window to buy closed early.

The Bengals defense does not seem to be playing as well as they did last season.

How about saying it was necessary to insult the small-minded people who believed he would be ok?

Of course you can and should ignore week 1. A rookie coming off a knee injury with no training camp and very limited practice time you should absolutely ignore. He's done more in this game than Ingram has done in his career.
 
I'm so glad I've learned never to read into these week 1 panic threads over the years. Richardson probably just saved my week 2. :thumbup:
