Look out for Kene. He's ultra athletic.

Rico Dowdle anyone?

Roster-able, perhaps, but not lead dog.

I like him and he's good to have if you're a Pollard owner, but it's hard to depend on garbage time stats. Even though Pollard hasn't impressed, he's still the starter.

Noah Brown - after back to back 150+ yard performances he’s almost certainly going to be scooped up off waivers
Ty Chandler - at worst he’s showing he has standalone value, at best he’s unseating Alexander Mattison at RB, whatever the case may be now is the time to get him if you didn’t after Cam Akers’ injury
Rico Dowdle - has shown he can play, could be inching closer to standalone value, next man up if Tony Pollard gets hurt
A.T. Perry - (sleeper) if Michael Thomas is out for any extended period of time, this rookie is a big target, 56 snaps including a TD, be mindful of the upcoming bye week though

Rico looked pretty suave out there - better than Pollard.

Really .. In what 36 team league are you starting Juszczyk?

Bold move..he's not playing the Jags again this week.

I’m running a little thin at WR right now. Home league ww:
Rice
Cooks
J Reed
QJ
E Moore
I think I have them in order. There’s about 10 more that might do in a pinch. Mingo is getting targets but that passing game is anemic.
I’m not convinced Noah Brown is going to be a thing but hey, you could do worse
Chandelier obviously and Dowdle. Chandler short term and Dowdle desperation play and loads of contingency upside.
If McBride is still on the wire, blow it. I picked him up last week.
Jameis and Zap in SF.

Deep 16-team redraft where RBs are at a premium.... thinking of re-adding (I had drafted and dropped him) Jerick McKinnon. Andy Reid has a history of really changing things up (for the better) after his team's bye and I've heard through multiple channels that they plan on getting McKinnon more touches. It happened last year and McKinnon went on that insane run to finish up the season where he was catching a ton of balls (many for TDs). I'd have to drop Royce Freeman but don't see the downside there.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Gaskin back in MIN to provide depth. They'll want somebody besides Nwangu behind Chandler (who isn't ideally a primary back himself, IMO).
rockaction
Footballguy
Is he on the Rams practice squad or the fifty-three?
BobbyLayne

I'd put Reed above Cooks and I'd drop Elijah from consideration

Practice, Gaskin was signed back to Min's practice squad today.

And Ty Chandler is? Meh

I play in a FB-premium league (10pts/reception) so ... I'm still not picking him up

No, not really. That would be quite a league. Other than Juice, who else would even get drafted. Ingold?

J Reed passes the eye test more than any other GB WR-- I could see him emerging as the alpha the 2nd half of the year.
BobbyLayne

Cabinda.....provided you have a bonus for balls that clank off both hands.
There's probably twice as many long snappers as there are fullbacks these days. Or seems like it anyway.

In SF (assuming 4pt per passing TD) I'm starting a WR or RB over these bums. Maybe if Carr is out then I reconsider Jameis, but the prognosis sounds like Carr should be good to go after the bye.

Tough choice ahead, any feedback is welcome. I got some FAAB money, just need to know who to target.
Ty Chandler or Rico Dowdle or Zach Charbonet
1pt per 5 carries, 1 pt per 10 rush yds, 2 pts per rec, 6 pts TD
Watched Dowdle on Sunday and he's just out-playing Pollard right now, have no idea what's going on with Pollard.

If it's any help, I own Charbonet and right now I'm trying to drop inorder for 1) Chandler then 2) Dowdle.

I see it as Chandler has the clearer path to RB1 touches but plays behind one of the league’s worst run blocking offensive lines. Will probably be regularly ranked in fantasy RB3 territory if starting. Dowdle plays in a better offense and has a league-winner type ceiling (low end RB1/high end RB2), but needs an injury to Pollard to make it happen as I don’t see the Cowboys demoting their $10 million dollar man voluntarily to his previous role even if it may be for the benefit of the offense.
I own both in dynasty and my value of Dowdle hasn’t changed even with the garbage time stats. Chandler’s stock has seen the biggest improvement and I’d prioritize him even with questions about the run blocking. He brings speed that Mattison doesn’t have. However when Mattison is inevitably cleared from concussion protocol I don’t expect him to vanish from the game plan either. Could be a little messy depending on Mattison’s status. I’d prioritize Chandler especially with a tempting matchup against the Broncos and their league-worst run defense.
Edit - I'd still prefer Charbonnet over both of them, saying that as a Walker dynasty owner. He's still a handcuff but he's getting more and more involved in the offense lately, and if Walker misses time to injury Charbonnet becomes a must-start. The run defense schedule is rough but Charbonnet's game will still translate due to his pass catching.

He's been on the field more than Walker the last 3 weeks. I would hold.
Yes, more snaps. And it looks like he owns hurry up/2 minute. That said, Walker is still getting the carries.
SEA schedule is also a nightmare soon: SF, @DAL, @SF, PHI, TN, PIT.

That would be a massive mistake and I'm not even a huge Charb fan. Don't do it!
Why?

I own Charb in redraft and I'm holding. His upside is game winning for me. Sure it takes a Walker injury but he hasnt been the most healthy guy. I'm going all in on Ty this week just dropping someone else. It's basically for one start.
dipandglide
Footballguy
Talent and more upside (I'm a Walker guy and am still saying this!). I'd rank them Charb > Dowdle > Chandler in terms of floor/ceiling combo.
Fair enough. Just don't love SEA's schedule. There's a stretch of SF, DAL, SF, PHI, TN, PIT.
I suppose I could drop D. Pierce or T. Spears for either T. Chandler or Dowdle.

I know u don't want to hear it, because picking up a guy is always kinda fun, but I prolly wouldn't drop any of those guys. Tough call.

Spears = Charbs. Both have league-winning upside if Henry or Walker go down. They are both reasonable PPR flex's too.
Pierce is a tough call. He and DS should split carries if both are healthy. I don't have a strong opinion between him, Dowdle, and Chandler. I lean Dowdle due to Dallas being the better offense.

That’s in depth. If I’m reading right, when he is on the field with doubs his target share is just as good if not a tad better?
Good point, but if Walker were to have to sit I'd happily start Charbs in any of those games
