n4sa 684 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I love this guy, especially in Dynasty/Keeper leagues. This team looked totally different than last weeks Tyrod and this guy is heavily involved. He's getting GL carrries, getting work in the passing game. Amazing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In what world would JJ take over as the #2 with Kelley/Ekeler doing what they’re doing?? I would trade you JJ for Kelley in a heartbeat and then come to this forum and brag about it afterwards. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FO regime changes are real, and so is draft pedigree. JJ is a fringe day 2 pick, from the old Chargers regime. Lynn has no allegiance to him, and has relentlessly praised Kelley (4th round current regime pick) since June. He's also much better of a complimentary back to what they want Ekeler to be. I think JJ will get his change of pace carries mixed in, but he shouldn't get more than 2-5 carries a game. The remainder of this VERY run heavy offense, with a former RB head coach and a rookie QB (who looked pretty good all things considered), is a piece you want to be a part of. You will see people blowing 50-70% of their FAAB on him once he has a ceiling game, where he goes 110 and 2 TDs. Could happen next week or two, but I think it'll happen sooner than people think. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for misunderstanding. i honestly don’t think JJ would even be worth giving up much for as a handcuff to begin with though. If Kelley goes down, then I would imagine Ekeler would be featured more with a little JJ sprinkled in. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

USWAY 366 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Shout out CBS for putting me on this guy before the draft. He was my 142nd pick and I'm loving it. Has that Melvin Gordon role locked down. Edited September 22, 2020 by USWAY 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juke 425 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I'm surprised there isn't more talk about Kelly with all the injuries around the league. Anyone else confident in starting him this week vs. the porous Carolina defense? SIGN ME UP. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SkinThatSmokeWagon 215 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I am targeting him in FAAB this week. I am prepared to spend a majority of my $100 FAAB on him as opposed to any other waivers this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

spd2base 161 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Yea: all this Mike Davis/McKinnon discussion and I'm curious about the guy who had over 20 carries above Eckeler this week 😨 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have him as my RB4 behind Cook, Chubb and Taylor and haven't even had anyone reach out for a trade of any kind. Guess they're just sleeping on him. There are plenty of teams in my league with RB injuries. I grabbed him in 3 of 4 keeper/dynasty leagues and am more than happy to have him as depth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
