jamesisharden 230 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Well that is more more "concrete" news that i expected. Gonna be hard pressed NOT to start him now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StevenSC400 1,002 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) He’s been playing with the shoulder issue all year. He sat out one week had a positive mri result and it’s still doom and gloom in here. He was itching to play last week the raiders playoffs hopes are still alive arrow is pointed in the right direction. Grab Washington if you can just to be safe but I don’t even think that’s necessary. Edited December 11, 2019 by StevenSC400 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But you do realize Rapaport is a moron and has tweeted plenty of inaccurate news right? I concur, just saying if the MRI is clean, you really can't misreport that. He was begging to play the point of tears to come in last game and also its about setting up a culture of winning to entice free agents. I think he plays and does well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is the last game in Oakland this week and they have been campaigning for OROY for him. Playoff chances are slim to none with 2 games back of the wild card with three to go.

Bish0p 133 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I have nothing to add to this convo except the fact that he was in tears cuz he couldnt play, now compare that to someone who calls in sick to go bowling... how can you not root for this kid?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IMO He'll play because I'm playing against him in both my leagues lol. Seems logical to think he still could be a little risky for in-game aggravation if he takes a big hit or falls wrong on that shoulder. And the Raiders clearly have nothing to play for and zero reason to push him if he does aggravate it. So I'm not sure how automatic a start he is if you have comparable options. It's a great matchup for sure though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't own him but I remember they did an interview and story on him before a SNF or MNF earlier this year and he seemed like a really humble, nice guy. Also had a rough upbringing where I believe his dad raised a bunch of kids in poverty. Very hard not to root for him 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dalton Gang 161 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Dream match up against the Jags. Hope he plays cause he should have a huge day. And yes I saw the story on him as well and seems like just a great kid. Completely rooting for him in fantasy and real life. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LongBalls 1,193 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Welcome back young man. Good news as the MRI seems to indicate low or no probability for making the injury worse. He should be out there per normal. Last week was clearly precautionary by the Raiders. Word is Jacobs was pissed they made him sit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mtx 122 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 is JJ playing or not? What is everyone here rambling about?? I just dropped DW thinking I had the fantasy pickup of the year and now you're telling me there's a chance JJ ain't playing even though he's healthy?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yup I think he's 100% playing, at least I have him in a best ball, oh how I love thee best ball. In redraft, I think you have to roll with him unless you have a RB2 with enough upside (maybe a Freeman type?) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The word on Bell was that he wanted to play last week, but the organization told him to stay away from the team so he didn’t get everyone sick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
