People cooled on the zero-RB strategy because RB's were getting such a share of the passing volume last year but it is looking good so far. This is why I said I wouldn't be so quick to abandon it and it can still work if you get the right pick.
Zeke, DJ in horrible offenses
Freeman, Fournette, Mixon all injured. McKinnon dead (although this was flukey, last day of practice so doesn't really support my argument)
Drake, Collins both sharing a lot of work.
And that's after 1 week. Some of those banged up RB's can turn it around and Zeke/DJ won't struggle all year but it just shows how hard it is to pick RB's.
I like Jordan Howard a lot this year but wouldn't want to take him over a top 12ish WR in PPR.
Like I said, I've got at least 8 RBs that would be better at that spot than Barkley. I'm looking forward to comparing notes with you on Barkely and Green vs Adams as the season progresses.
AJ green over halfway through your TD projections two games in
Heading into week 2 are you still feeling good with Drake over Barkley
Barkley with 100+ and a TD in a brutal matchup. Most talented back to enter the league in a very long time. Guys going to be a stud.
