I saw this morning it was reported Wedgie is going "all in" on Cobb. Not surprising, since if we are going to pay for a FA I'd expect it to be a former Packer. If we get Suh and Cobb I'll almost not hate ol Frankenberry
also, I think J-Stew is a really nice back. If more people are scared off by injury concerns, that means I get hella value on J Stew. I think he will be a top end RB2 in the late 3 early 4 rounds. I know he is never healthy, but they are committed to him as the starter and bell cow if he somehow does stay healthy. I know over the years I have gotten tremendous value on certain guys that others shied away from due to injuries. A slight steal, but getting Murray in the 2nd/3rd rounds last year is a perfect example when all signs pointed to him having first round value, but many were afraid of his injury history.
When I wrote that, it was because of
A: age, which doesn't really matter in this case since he's
B: overdraftedness, may be an early 3rd
C: how much work he'd get since lol @ carolina committing to one guy. Tolbert will be used
but you may be right. If there's two things we learned about running backs in fantasy last year, it's
-injury prone-ness doesn't matter. Remember when we let Beast Mode fall to you in the 3rd last year? And Demarco Murray, in most leagues Arian Foster...
-starting role doesn't matter. For example, you'd rather start the Colts "backup" RB than like 10 starters
Draft running backs with talent: now that J-Stew is getting a shot, lets see how this goes.
Also lol @ KC signing Maclin
.. I guess.. he's relatively cheap and had a nice year last year.. I could live with Ingram, Polk & Sproles heading the backfield.
