I think it's a solid play. He was already trending a bit upward, and he's done well with Deebo at RB. Good matchup too this week. It still feels weird to say that against the Seahawks.

They're kind of like the Vols to me now. The hate went to amusement, then to apathy, now to borderline pity.

I’ve essentially been operating with 12 roster spots instead of 15 for several weeks, because I refuse to release Derrick Henry, AJ Brown, and Michael Carter in hopes some or all will be back for a deep playoff run.

I’d definitely hang on to Henry also. Not really sure on Carter. Depending on your league and if you don’t need another active body it may be worth waiting.

I have Taylor on bye so there goes a guaranteed 25 points. My other RB’s are Antonio Gibson, Eli Mitchell and James Conner so could be worse.

It’s been working fairly well so far. I’m currently 7-6 and in second place… in line for a bye if I win this week. Problem is, teams 3-8 are all 6-7 lol. I do have more points scored than everyone except first place, which I believe is the tiebreaker if I lose and there are other 7-7 teams.

Actually, I’m not sure why Yahoo doesn’t have me clinching a spot yet.

Would dropping any of them be a potential value add to another team?

My main league is fairly similar overall, but I’m in like 6th place at 6-6 with the most points scored. Just a weird season.

I would say yes; there isn’t much out there as far as FA. Certainly no RB1s, which Carter was playing like before injury, and Brown is a stud too - especially with Julio out for the year now.

Sometimes that’s the best reason to keep someone.

I don't think Carter will produce like he was with Wilson at QB. Flacco & White could throw to a RB.

I have the most points in my league by a wide margin. I've also had the most points scored on me, by a wide margin. I've somehow made it to 7-6 after starting 1-6. FF is so stupid I'm so glad I do it every year.

You get it.

I'm in first in two of my leagues. One was autodrafted and I've forgotten to set my lineup 2-3 times in the other one.

I’m second in points scored and have had the fewest scored against me, and I’m also 7-6 lol.

In other news, I picked up Chase Edmonds as insurance in case Deebo can’t go. :?

:peace: Crap just realized I need a few things to happen to make the playoffs. I’m 6-7 and there are 4 other teams ahead of me at 7-6. First, I have to win. Second, since the tiebreaker is head to head record I still need a few teams to lose since they got me earlier.

Horrible week for JT to be on bye.

Maybe.

The Patriots are also on bye and their DEF has been big for me.

At least I’m killing it in my other league, despite a lot of injuries and some underachievers. I’m looking at you, Mahomes.
