Yeah, I think Gio has gotten less usage this year than in past years with Mixon's arrival. Mixon had trouble cracking the lineup last year until about Week Six (I had him rostered). I thought Mixon was a second-rounder, but he definitely is 2nd in rushing this year, which is all that matters.
Eh, I drafted him last year so I was familiar with the back story and round, that's all. Still, that's essentially first-round territory for a running back, which sounds stupid, but it's a high pick to use on one.
Cole is the only "reliable" one on the list. Though Clement is probably the call with the roster.
Njoku has a 20% Target share through two weeks. Which one of those others is going to get that? If you have options to pick up at RB/WR I’d go that route first then shotgunning for TE TD’s.
I agree that Mixon will go right back to starting. However IMO this will become even more of a 50/50 timeshare for ROS. Bengals looking like legit playoff contenders and they will want both backs healthy. My guess is the Mixon injury has put a scare into them and will make them dial back his workload a bit. Just an opinion.
Yeah...Clement and Cole are the two Im most considering.
I think Goff is gonna be a high floor potentially high ceiling week to week. We know what Fitz has been over his long career, however, they do have lots of talent and some good play calling and no running game. My gut tells me this could continue. History say's it won't.
I do like Fitz this week. But that’s prob the last. I may actually drop Taylor for him. But I have Ben as my starter. QB is always the hardest position for me.
We should maybe be talking more about Tyler Boyd as a pickup. John Ross got the preseason buzz but Boyd might be the true #2 option on a team that looks very much improved and has a GREAT passing schedule.
Ekeler is a top 10 PPR RB through 2 weeks. I wouldn't wait regardless of whether I had Gordon.
Benjamin, while on a terrible team, is still the #1 there... so still warrants consideration IMO. Sure I'd take DJax over him, but is Callaway really "That" much of an improvement? maybe/ maybe not
fair enough and appreciate the clarification. After this week, I too, believe that all 3 of Ekeler, DJax and Cole should be owned in a significant # of leagues.
2 things concern me with Gio
I don’t know why breida isn’t owned in every league. I know we’re only two weeks into the season, but he’s the leagues leading rusher
I'd love to add him but I'm already rolling out AJ & Dalton every week (super-flex). Adding Boyd may be smart but feels like too big of an investment in the Bengals.
I dropped Burkhead for Gio. Debating if I want to drop AP and/or Peyton Barber for Aaron Jones and/or Ekeler. Thoughts anyone?
I dropped Mack for Gio (own Mixon) and Barber for Aaron Jones. Ekeler was not available. Barber has received several touches and done so little with them, that I just preferred to go with the lottery ticket. However, one of my league-mates immediately scooped Barber up.
Callaway all day every day.
I'm a fan, and owner, and I agree. The TDs are awesome but his target share overall has been incredibly disappointing. Not sure he got a target before the fourth quarter in week one then only two last week (again it's great he salvaged tlboth games with TDs).
If they were just calling up Adams to fill Sproles' roster spot, why didn't they do this last week? It seems like Ajayi is a very serious question mark to play.
Clement looked good. Maybe not a bad thing for those of us that handcuffed. Clement would have backfield to himself.
