So here's how bad it's gotten for Derrick Henry. One of the owners in my main money league dropped him this week and I just saw it on the waiver report and I thought that was awesome and I'd put in a claim for him. Then I got to looking at the numbers and I actually don't think he's worth a waiver claim after all. Don't think you can get much more disappointing than that!!

The one team I have him on has super deep benches so I won't be dropping him....................anytime soon that is. Dude has absofuckinglutely ruined that team......well that and Howard's lack of usage.........I had so many better options when I took him it isn't funny.............I thought rolling out CMac,Howard and Henry every week was gonna be an easy winning combo........has turned into a shit sammich

Sure you can. You could have taken him 13th overall with aspirations of 1400 and 14.

4WEEK 7
Unprecedented.

Browns trade Carlos Hyde to Jacksonville.
Chubb becomes the starter in CLE and simultaneously spells the demise of the oft-injured Fournette in JAX.

Oh, and the Denver Broncos DST, who scored a TOTAL of 20 fantasy points thru 6 weeks, including two consecutive weeks of minus -2, trounce the Cardinals and score 33 fantasy points.

There was speculation Fournette may be headed to IR after Jacksonville traded for Carlos Hyde. The Jaguars view Hyde as insurance in case Fournette suffers another setback, but this doesn't change his timetable. Fournette looks on track for a Week 10 return.

I have a hard time trusting any reports. Could very well prove true. But to trade for a RB in week 7 seems like they're trying to put a positive spin on a negative situation.
:noidea:

I agree but who knows a 5th isn’t bad for an insurance policy

Maybe it's my inner conspiracy theorist but with JAX having a bye in week 9 and all this talk of Fourny coming back in week 10.... a trade now just doesn't add up to me. Promote a practice squad guy for 2 weeks, sign Darkwa, Forte or Lacy for 2 weeks.

Well consider that both Yeldon and Fournette have been dealing with injuries this season a third more healthy RB would seem like a good idea.

Played against the Broncos in two leagues.

Terrible way to start.

5th isn't much. That offense has gone seriously backwards without Fournette.
