It’s a toss up. Armstead is gonna come back. What that does to the jags backfield......I dunno. He needs some
Passing work too to be more effective.

Conner isn’t even ruled out for this weeek but is so fragile. If Conner misses snell is an immediate rb2 with rb1 upside....

Think I’d rather have snell

Drop Tyler Boyd, Diggs, or Marquise Brown for Sanders? I know Burrough talked Boyd up but Brown has big time boom potential imo. Kinda leaning toward Diggs

Haven’t really tried yet. It’s an 8 team league so there aren’t a ton of weaknesses to exploit.

Would you drop Robinson for Snell?

Jacksonville may be a dumpster fire, but i think Robinson is their guy. You dont just cut Fournette "hoping" Robinson can do the job. Also says to me Armstead is an afterthought.

Sanders?
Snell?

How ironic we were talking on this board in the off season how neither was gonna live up to their hype. What changed?
An injury to Conner? A poor showing in Philly?
I wouldnt waste my time on either. They arent long-term answers.
Unless this is keeper, Sanders is worth the waiver priority.

I'm still of the opinion that as far as returning players, Ozigbo is a bigger threat to Robinson than Armstead would be. But the fact that both are going to be back, and eventually JAX will have all three plus Chris Thompson, makes me a little Leary of any of them, unless Robinson takes command. 70 rushing and 30 receiving ain't quite there yet.

For his first game and against a decent defense I thought he had a solid game. If he is your Flex start, he performed admirably.

70 rushing yards is on pace for over 1100 yards. That is generally considered a good season.

If he adds another 30 receiving that puts him on pace for 1600 all-purpose yards. Still considered good if not top 10.

I get not fully trusting it though. Jags had no business winning that game. Rivers gave it away with two AWFUL INTs. They got outgained nearly 2-0. I think the Titans bring them back down to earth. However, if the young Jags manage a win this weekend watch out. Their fans will be unbearable...all three of them.

Well thats the thing though, its nice, but it ain't great. It ain't, "the job is yours" good, ya know?

Having not seen a single play where he had the ball yet, ya know, was he getting what was blocked? Was he creating yardage? Was he a hard tackle? Did he finish runs? I dunno any of those answers, just his finalnal stat line, which, again, was nice, but is it real?

Well i subscribe to the Jurassic Park's Dr. Ian Malcolm on this.
To loosely quote him... "they (i.e. Armstead and Ozigbo) had their shot." NFL teams cant wait around forever.
Maybe if either was elite, i can see how Robinson might be considered a placeholder. But they have proved only that they need time and get hurt. Not exactly the kind of resume you want in the NFL.
Go Robinson!!

I just read that Shanahan said that Kittle will not practice all week, but that Kittle could still play this weekend. LOL, this gives me no confidence. I'll continue to roster Hockenson.

 

[cwalke3408]

Landry to play tonight

Packers have struggled to cover TEs for years. We have a more athletic LB now but who knows.

He looks good. That OL is not good. With that said, the Jags have no investment in him so regardlesss of how he is playing there will always be a little concern over his longterm stability.

What do you guys think? Is it worth having Hunt as a handcuff to Chubb in an 8 team PPR or is it just going to be frustrating not knowing what’s going to happen with those two? Chubb is clearly the guy, but Hunt is obviously capable of carrying the load and is the better pass catcher.

Hunt carries standalone value IMO.

I agree. My point is, he could be even more valuable to me as I currently have Chubb

Usually in 8 team leagues I would think its a waste of time to cuff players but Hunt is worth a roster spot.
