MetsSox 57 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) Anyone think he's worth a dart throw in case the Bengals want to keep Gio in his regular role? I know Samaje Perine is there too but maybe they would like to see what they have in Williams. Edited October 24, 2020 by MetsSox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KennyWoo 3,319 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 As a start week 7, no. As a deep league stash, definitely, especially if you think Mixon is at risk to miss substantial time. To give you an idea of how deep a league we're talking about though, I just stashed him in a deep dynasty league where like 80+ RBs are owned. In 12- or 14-team redraft with standard bench sizes I doubt I'd bother. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtywater97 1,070 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Yeah, if you are looking for a bye week filler go with Gio. Long term? Ab-so-frickin'-lutely rather have Trayveon. Bengals have given the highest usage to one back in league in Mixon I believe. They use Gio for a pass catching role which he is great at. However, we know he sucks between the tackles. Perine is a plodder and primarily used on game day for special teams purposes which is why he is active over Trayveon. Trayveon will be 100% active this Sunday because they finally have need for his skill set. Do not forget this kid led all of the SEC in rushing yards just last year. This reminds me and is very similar to JaMychal Hasty's situation in SF. The difference is there is a lot more certainty as to how long Mostert will be out. With Mixon there has been little to no information, which really makes me wonder about the severity. If any news leaks he is out for a prolonged stretch you could have yourself a gem here.

The Bengals also might bring up Jacque Patrick from the practice squad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like his talent, there are plenty of reasons they should involve him more now--but we'll see. In 16 teamers I think he could be worth a FLEX look, but more so for WK16.
