soopanuts Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Deserving? Where is he going in your drafts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 All over the place...I have seen him go anywhere between mid 2nd to mid 4th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I think very deserving to go as early as 2nd round. Sky's the limit for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanhooters Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I picked him up in round 3 in my draft yesterday.I was picking from the middle in a 12 team league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Feels like a 2013 Spiller sort of pick...I am having a hard time getting on board this wagon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Feels like a 2013 Spiller sort of pick...I am having a hard time getting on board this wagon. Totally agree. Lots of shiftiness and speed here, but will never carry a full load. I'd only feel comfortable with him on my squad as my #2 RB, which would mean I'd probably need to spend my 1st pick on a RB... which would mean my WR1 would not be as studly as I'd prefer.

soopanuts Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 I see both sides of the argument but his upside is hard to deny. I have an opportunity to keep him at very good value (later round) so just looking to take pulse on how Huddlers feel about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Stanky Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 The difference to the Spiller comparison is no F-Jax to contend with. My concern is him not holding up for a full season, or his effectiveness being zapped due to being overworked. I like him in the 3rd, but too many question marks to take in the 2nd, IMO. I am hoping to get him in the 4th. Great value in the 4th, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I don't think he is quite as talented and explosive as is being portrayed. Nice player but never falls forward. Just too small. They'll try to work him a bunch in AZ, and I don't think the body will hold up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I don't remember the round I got him in last night. It was a new league with at least 2 people that's never played before. I got him as my flex behind Ball and Demarco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delicious_bass Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 3.06 in a 12 team PP2R league I am in. Agree with others who have opined he is being counted on to do what he's not done before and may not be capable of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heehawks Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Totally agree. Lots of shiftiness and speed here, but will never carry a full load. I'd only feel comfortable with him on my squad as my #2 RB, which would mean I'd probably need to spend my 1st pick on a RB... which would mean my WR1 would not be as studly as I'd prefer. 1st pick in 12 man ppr draft last night, picked Forte (debatable but not for this thread!), then on the turn 2.12 and 3.1 took A.Jeffery and A.Ellington. So likely a product of draft position, and who was available. So he's my no.2 back and Jeffery is my somewhat of a studly WR that you mentioned above. Feel pretty comfortable with that.

soopanuts Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Thanks all. I kept him as my RB2 in a 12 team, 1/2 pt PPR. Kept at 12th round cost in draft, good value even if he performs like a 6-7 round RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfer Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 1st pick in 12 man ppr draft last night, picked Forte (debatable but not for this thread!), then on the turn 2.12 and 3.1 took A.Jeffery and A.Ellington.

Interesting heehawks. I'm in a 10man ppr with 3rd round reversal picking 10th. I'm thinking of starting wr wr and then I get pick 21. To be honest I'm hoping for a Few other rbs to fall to me here, but Ellington feels like a reach at pick 21 especially if Dwyer snipes some GL work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megatron11 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Lot to like. Looks very good in space. Solid #2 RB in most formats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzrdkng14 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Here is my dilemna. I am in a 12 team PPR keeper league. My keepers are A Brown (4th rd) and A Jeffery (15th rd). I also do not have a 3rd round pick as I traded it last year for Marshawn Lynch.... I pick at 1.11 and 2.2, so almost back to back... Here are the available players: OVR PLAYER 1 McCoy, LeSean PHI RB 2 Charles, Jamaal KCC RB 3 Peterson, Adrian MIN RB 4 Johnson, Calvin DET WR 5 Forte, Matt CHI RB 6 Manning, Peyton DEN QB 7 Bryant, Dez DAL WR 8 Green, A.J. CIN WR 9 Rodgers, Aaron GBP QB 10 Lynch, Marshawn SEA RB 11 Jones, Julio ATL WR 12 Brees, Drew NOS QB 13 Nelson, Jordy GBP WR 14 Martin, Doug TBB RB 15 Foster, Arian HOU RB 16 Cobb, Randall GBP WR 17 Thomas, Julius DEN TE 18 Morris, Alfred WAS RB 19 Stacy, Zac STL RB 20 Ellington, Andre ARI RB We only have to start 1 RB, the other is a flex spot... So, I really want to get D Martin or Ellington with one of my picks. Lynch might be there, but I doubt it. If I can get two of those RB's I would be happy. I don't really like Foster, Stacy or Morris. If Julio Jones or AJ Green are there at 11 I might take them. J Nelson is interesting too....
