I know I'd take a grab at conner in 7 8 or 9 perhaps and just roll with it. Connor is a huge reach in rounds 7-9, especially if youre drafting him over a guy like Tevin Coleman. I dont think he's that good. Not really good at hitting the right hole and cant pass block, both which are strengths of Bell. I think he's more of a RB2 if Bell misses time.

Sure maybe 7 but id happily grab him in 9 or 10 based on the current situation. And I think conner is actually pretty solid overall but needs to work on some things Link to post Share on other sites

The James Conner I've seen is a hard-hitting RB who avoids being taken down after one hit. Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone here is pretty much thinking that this ship has definitely sailed and like I said even if he plays I don't see him risking injury pushing for those extra yards. Alot are pretty much over it and if bell would miraculously sign people would be cool but overall most are ready for next man up and start looking forward Disagree. I see it if Bell plays he plays hard, I just don’t see him doing it any other way. He knows injuries happen on noncontact plays, he is going to do what he has been doing. no way would I pass on Bell. 1 hour ago, CABLE87 said: Only one league drafted him late, and it wasnt the bell owner smh. You got some smart people in your leagues. But we did draft a tad bit earlier. But still he should be owned in all formats. I don’t know about that ... in no particular order Connor in three leagues with picks # 164, 156 & 160 Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly right, this guy is a late round flier right now. R7-9 is crazy. I'd much rather pick up guys like Peyton Barber, Crowell, and Hyde in that range... even Jamaal Williams. You take Conner in the last round or two instead of a kicker or defense and see what happens week 1. That said, I still think he is a good stash because IF something happens with Bell this guy is probably at least a RB2. Link to post Share on other sites
Savatage79 2,427 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 A few days ago yes I'd agree, but with this theme now that bell might truly not report I say it's worth a reach. To each their own, I'm confident in my season I'll get a few other waiver gems that make up for a few reaches in the draft. The draft is not the be all end all to a season but that's just me Link to post Share on other sites

ValyrianSteelers 43 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 So, with all the talk at the moment, how high would you estimate his current value? I think of making a trade for Conner. On my bench are Ingram, Breida, Morris, Murray, J. Hill and Stills. Is there anyone you would give up for Conner at the moment? Link to post Share on other sites

brockpapersizer 11,559 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 1- Leveon reports tomorrow 2- Conner gets enough Sunday hype to warrant some calling him a flex, even though he probably shouldn't 3- Unless he scores a TD, he was probably has a useless/low end start 4- We forget about Conner unless Bell gets hurt Won't guarantee it, butI feel like this is the most likely outcome we're looking at.

whitekenyan24 147 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 If Bell is declared out at some point in the week, where does everyone feel he slots in with the Week 1 RB rankings? In the Barber/Williams/Carson/Hyde tier? Higher/lower? Link to post Share on other sites
