Fantasy Football News and Rumors

watching the game... he looked like he shouldn't have been out there in the first place.

Always seems to be something with him

Dalvin Cook was walking gingerly off the field

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Mariota has a hamstring injury. Injuries are piling up.

 

[BrockForBroglio]

Cook is done for the day....good news for me, hope he isn't hurt too bad tho

he is

 

[BrockForBroglio]

Clay, 4 catches for 78 yds in the 1st half, not even targeted in the 2nd half. I know they are running the ball fairly well, but shit.

 

[Trudem]

Nearly complete tear of ACL for Cook. That sounds awful

It does. I’ve dodged a bullet with Cook as I ended up trading him in leagues I’ve owned him, except for one and at least I own Murray in that league.

 

[Hambombs]

Wow lucky you dodged that bullet

 

[SteelersPride]

Did gordon get hurt I already lost cook

Loving all the little blurbs about D. Cook/Murray, they all say Murray is a zero in the pass game, but he averaged over 3 catches a game in a vertical passing attack his entire carer. He can, he has, they just haven't asked him too all that often

@TREFF , you get two cakes for that!

Thoughts on Chris Carson; and I'm kinda bummed, 'cuz I thought he was a pretty cool crapshoot:

He doesn't have that extra burst, or push, if you will. Decent enough RB if he gets the carries and I'm rootin' for him, but from what I see he just doesn't have that little 'extra' that separates the decent from the good or great.

I think it’s hard to tell what anyone is behind that god awful OL

To be fair though I said it for years when they overinvested in their defense.

Fair enough, but watch him once he gets past that OL blocking; the great ones nail it, and the good ones at the very least get that extra yard or two that are needed. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see it with him.

 

[Chef99]

That said, I'm still crazy about Tyler Lockett, so...

 

[Trudem]

I think he is more than serviceable but stud he is not. I’m glad I got out of that backfield in D1

I think your seeing it right. I found the little line in his nfl.com draft profile more than a little eye opening..in 212 college carries, he never had a run longer than 26 yards. Considering he played in the "we play no defense" Big12, that's pretty telling to me. He's serviceable, obviously has some talent, but he's missing anything that would make him special
