Sush it, and come trade for Pacheco in Bandits! Buy the hype!
Except that Gordon is a aging vet on his third contract who signed a one year contract for peanuts. He's got a lot of mileage on him. Dillon is young and still on a rookie contract and very little mileage on him. Guess we'll have to see how this plays out.more fuel to the fire
Broncos OC Justin Outten said Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon will be on a "pitch count" throughout the season.
It's another dagger to those drafting Williams as a surefire RB1 at the top of fantasy drafts. Signs continue to point to the Broncos wanting to split duties between the sophomore and veteran Gordon, who was re-signed to a one-year deal deep into free agency. Williams can still get to top-12 status among fantasy backs, but he's going to have to do it with big plays and touchdowns, something he's capable of, though Gordon will be in the way. Outten and new coach Nathaniel Hackett came from a Green Bay offense where Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon pretty much split work right down the middle in an effort to keep both fresh.
Gordon will get usage, there's zero doubt. But Hacket and Wilson will quickly tire of sub 4ypc and more fumbles than one should have when they know they have a superior option around.more fuel to the fire

Wouldn't it be great if all these day 3 supposed to be wunderkids fell on their faces against said car washers and insurance salesmen, and then we wouldn't have to worry about it?
You should have tagged @averagejoe in this...
What the hell Monkey? Insurance Salesman = car wash attendant?
hahah I always like ot go with Grocery store stocker..but then that pisses off Kurt Warner
FWIW, I actually thought the WR depth in last year's draft was good. The issue, imo, is that teams drafted WRs about 5-20 spots before they should've gone almost across the board so the expectation curve is all screwed up.
I want to say there was an announcer who would say that during preseason games back in the day. Would probably be someone on the Redskins broadcasts, since there was little TV coverage back then during the preseason. But downplaying some 2nd half preseason "stud" because he is playing against "guys who are bagging groceries next week" has been my go to for years and I am pretty sure that's where I picked it up from.
