Take a stand:
Breece Hall or Bijon Robinson?

Bijan, not even sure why it's a Q, imho

Bijan, not even sure why it's a Q, imho

just splitting hairs if you're claiming one is clearly ahead of the other

Breece led all RBs in receptions and targets last year and targets are more than 2x as valuable as carries in ppr leagues. I don't expect Cousins to checkdown as much as the previous Falcons regime but I also don't expect the Jets too either.

I think this year I'd go Breece over Bijan but really doesn't matter to me, give me pick 4 or 5 and I'll take whoever falls out of the top 3 RBs/top 2 WRs

It's a lot of personal opinion, no doubt, I just think Bijan is superior in every way, including supporting cast and system.

Personally, gun to my head, I'd place a wager that Derrick Henry ends up higher than Breece... thankfully no one has a gun to my head, and given ADP, it's possible one could choose both

Yeah. We've seen Breece do it. Before his injury, he was a beast. You saw the top RB in fantasy performances. Not yet out of Bijan. Now that's probably because or Arthur Smith, who is no longer there, but I'm just saying this is why I'd have Breece over Bijan. I expect both to be very good. I think Bijan will thrive under a new regime. But you still never really know and at least I've seen it out of Breece.

Not sure if it was a team event or not, he was there to sign autographs I guess.

Middle of a Labor Day Weekend Saturday afternoon.

Not much good happens after midnight, but a lot of regular things happen after noon. lol

Not sure if he managed to shoot the guy who shot him, or if the guy who shot him also shot himself. Both shot doh.

Guy tried to steal Pearsall's Rolex, Pearsall wrastled the gun away and shot the assailant.... not gonna lie, that's pretty badass

49ers released a statement saying Ricky Pearsall “is in serious but stable condition” after suffering a bullet wound to the chest.
This latest report contradicts the one we received earlier, which said Pearsall “was shot through his arm.” This situation remains one to monitor as reports continue to come out, but Pearsall, being in stable condition, has been consistent throughout the day. This won’t be the last piece of news we hear about Pearsall. We’ll be sure to check back in with any updates.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs said the Chiefs attempted to sign him during the 2024 offseason.
Jacobs says he declined to sign with the Chiefs, along with the Broncos, Bears, Cardinals, Dolphins, Giants and Texans. Jacobs’ statement perhaps most profoundly applies to the Chiefs’ starter Isiah Pacheco. The Chiefs’ front office allowed Jerick McKinnon to walk this offseason, publicly praising Pacheco’s three-down and scoring-position potential while adding only UDFA Carson Steele to the mix through the preseason’s conclusion. The Chiefs then signed pass-catching specialist Samaje Perine on Wednesday, in what was thought to be a likely depth-related move. The Chiefs’ prior pursuit of Jacobs, a capable three-down player, casts a slightly different light on Perine’s signing though; the front office may be less comfortable with increasing Pacheco’s receiving usage than it appeared for much of the summer. While Pacheco should still be viewed as a locked-in fantasy football RB1, his range of outcomes is now slightly wider than it was a week ago

Whats everyones thoughts on the bengals backfield? Regardless of who is back there. Burrow, chase, higgins, alone make that a high powered offense. Taylor doesnt get enough credit for his offense. He also uses a workhorse primarily. So whoever it is will be valuable. I think its brown. And hell be given that chance. Moss is the security blanket.

I think whichever RB is better in pass pro for Burrow will get more snaps and touches, and I think that's Moss

That workhorse was always Mixon, so I’m not sure we can generalize now that it’s Moss/Brown, both smaller.

About the same as my thoughts on the Dallas backfield. Although they might TRY to run a bit more often. But I sure don't trust anyone in it, like I do with Zeke, at least I know he finds the end zone

 

[SmokingMonkey]

They did not trust him to protect Burrow or Browning last year, so if Brown got better on that end, I do think he gives ya more pop than Moss, but we all know RBs that don't block usually don't get the rock when they aren't plus athletes to begin with

I don’t look at that backfield until round 8 or 9. I favor Chase Brown over Zack Moss because of the way he’s projected as a receiver.

I have to say though as a former Joe Mixon owner, that team struggles to run the ball. Mixon is better than either Brown or Moss and he was meh as a fantasy back. Now you’re taking Meh and breaking it up between two guys.

Putting all things into perspective, he got really lucky. A gut shot woulda been a different story.

Erin Pearsall, the mother of Ricky Pearsall, said he is “in good spirits” following Saturday’s shooting.

There were previous reports of Pearsall being shot in the arm, but more recent reports have said Pearsall was shot in the chest. Per Pearsall’s mother, the wide receiver “was shot in the chest, and it exited out his back.” She also noted that “no vital organs were struck in the attack” while adding, “My son was spared today by the grace of God.” It sounds like the worst is behind Pearsall, as we continue to hope for a speedy recovery.
