Random FF Thoughts

They aren't picking 2022 Chubb up off the streets, he's 30 and destroyed his knee 2yrs ago.

Looks like the rookie they drafted isn't any good or they wouldn't be bringing Chubb in for backup duties

So an overreaction to send the 2.10 for a handcuff in dynasty?

Personally, I wouldn't be buying 30yr old Chubb, but if you're trying to cuff Mixon, late 2nd isn't lopsided. I was out 2yrs ago when this would be the first fully recovered season for him.

I view cuff RBs without any standalone value around 3rd rd pick value. If they get enough touches or show some pop, late 2nd is absolute highest id go. Can't argue Texans RB TD potential tho, so if you think hes taking RZ snaps from Mixon, easy to do the deal.

Today's nfl not a slam dunk that the backup becomes the unquestioned workhorse when RB1 goes down. Just another thing to consider when buying cuffs

But what about Damon Pierce??

19 for 176 in week 18 last year..

That's almost as many carries he had weeks 1-17..

The threat to me is the workload. With a decent RB2, Mixon is probably taking a hit from his 75% snaps, 20+ carries a game workload

well he did miss four weeks with a hammy, and 2 more with a groin issue.

besides, Joe Mixon ripping off a combined 4.7 yards every time he touches the ball, why would you give Peirce the rock?

I'm no fan of Pierce, his rookie season was a fluke imho, but he's a perfectly fine back up RB. At least good enough that you don't need a pedigree like Nick Chubb to come in and take his job. (assuming Chubb can)
