Assuming he plays every scheduled game isn’t something I’d do.


You can if you’d like. But I’m not.

avg RB miss ~2 games per year, so still looking at 240-250 touches at his Bama usage rates, where he was splitting roughly 60/40 with McClellan. Could easily end up the 40 in the split with Monty tho, so your reservations are legit

I think he'll be utilized enough his rookie season, whether that equates to rushing att or receptions, just to rationalize the draft capital used on him

I’d be thrilled if he gets 250 touches.

Williams had an exceptional season last year and was just over 270.

40% seems about where I’d guess. Maybe 45%.

Dont know what the rest of the country hears or speculates about the Bears? But locally, there is not one mention about the RB. Zero. All talk centers about Fields improving as a passer and an improved passing game.

Here in the Denver market, rarely does any team outside the Donkeys ever dare be mentioned...but, on those rare occasions, if it's a Bear reference..%100 of the time it's Fields, and generally followed up with a 'we shouldve drafted Fields not Surtain'.

It's not sexy to talk about RB's.

But even if they did, I wouldn't buy anything these yocals say anyways...they're butthurt that their RB room of Sam Perine and a bunch of schmucks, along with a one legged J. Williams, isn't 'respected' properly nationally. They think they have a top ten RB room.

got 7 today, thankfully they put Bama in for the college, a school that I'm very familiar with their players!

I screwed one of my guesses up and thought I was supposed to put a Bama RB that cleared 10TDs at Bama vs in NFL, damn you Najee!
Too many late nights recently (wife and I trying to finish Ted Lasso s3 after the kids go to bed...they just drop too many F bombs for toddlers, imo)

Spoiler

on the laptop vs phone so I'll type my answers out:

XXX - Rodney McLeod - B Westbrook
Fat Albert - XXX - Portis
Mac Jones - Amari Cooper - Ingram

FYI to you fantasy buddies-
Going on a guys trip (10 guys that I play auction in two leagues). Fly to Green Bay for the Packers/Lions game on Thursday September 28. then drive to Chicago for the Bears/Broncos game on Sunday October 1. We have an AirBNB next to the stadium in both cities. It should be epic, particularly if I survive it!

we should maybe move the dynasty daddy gridiron thingy to Joe's trivia time thread? just a thought

I definitely messed up and thought it was 10+ rushing TD’s at Bama. I guessed Yeldon then realized I did it wrong I'm not sure if I get WASH-NE regardless, I was going blank

Mahomes has 3,500 non-Kelce yards to throw to someone. Toney is inline for a lot of work.

Aaron Rodgers rips ‘Hard Knocks’ for picking Jets: ‘Forced it down our throats’

Rodgers - “They forced it down our throats and we gotta deal with it.”

I doubt Erin is complaining

you mean like what you did to GB, your teammates, and the league and it's fans for 5 years every offseason?

I have to admit I'll be watching "Hard Knocks" this year.

A big fuck you to Hopkins owners

I dunno...lateral move at worst imho. Murray was doing him, nor his owners, no big favors in ARZ...not to mention NUK himself having his own issues.

Tannehill got AJ Brown numbers with few problems.

I think once you come to terms with the reality that NUK isn't what he used to be in 2020 or prior...he's got just as good of a shot at producing there, than anywhere else he was likely to end up. At least Henry is still the defensive focal point on that team, that'll play to NUK's advantage

All bets are off if they turn to Levis or Willis

Oddly enough. I think this is a good place. The titans are going to be a bad team. And they are relying on old man Henry to save them like he always has. That’s fine. And could work. But either way it is nice to have a 2 Wr funnell. Especially for fantasy. We should know where all the fantasy points are coming from. Kind of like the Vikings in the past.
