kidsgotsoul 343 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I think if you subscribe to the belief that RB checkdowns can be a QB stat, it makes sense to believe that this role is not going away. Taylor will obviously be involved but look at Woodhead during the years he played with Rivers... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always get his satellite back wherever he's going. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My gut is saying yes because the pass catching back in a Rivers offense is usually an RB2 in any format, but especially PPR and Half PPR Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's the best receiving back on the team and it can't be overstated how much Rivers loves throwing to his RBs. Snell could be anything from a RBBC back to completely irrelevant if Conner comes back next week without incident. Not my ideal budget breaker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My RBs are my weakest position. Hardest part is deciding who to drop 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

M brown owned, so it's basically Snell and kelley after Hines. I guess *insert jets guy here* as well. I'm not big on Snell, PITs RBs a mess. So for me, its either Hines or save it. Dont really know who would be better with an injury in the future though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phillyball 61 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Torn between Hines and Kelley. I start 2rbs and 2 flex and need an rb with a floor. I do have Taylor so locking up colts are appealing but if Kelley is Gordan in this offense I have to think he’ll have a solid floor and weeks of rb 1 upside. I get that Hines could be a poor mans Ekeler, but JT has serious draft cred and I have to think he runs away with it. planning to drop $50-70k, which way would you go?

It’s gonna be a 50/50 to a 60/40 split with JT/NH. No way they risk overworking one over the other after the Mack injury. Kelley I’m shying away from due to Ekelers presence and Tyrod leading the offense Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think Taylor is going to be getting 20+ touches a week very soon. He’s a game-changer who proved to be an asset in the passing game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Freakin Marlon Mack was the starter over this "game-changer", and even in his absence Hines got more work. I agree JT will get more action, but he will not become that 20+ touches guy. If he was that level of a RB, he'd have been the bellcow from the jump. 1 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
