Mag112 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Ok, Powell is on WW and Projected 15(standard). When did he become David Johnson????Did I miss something, Is Miami Defense resting their staters this week ????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylcook13 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 He put up over 37 in my PPR last week. If he is projected like that they are either over compensating the projections based on that 37 points or more likely Forte is injured.

Montana is da Man Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Forte got injured after 3 rushes this past week. Powell is a very capable back. 15 may be over estimating a little but if Forte is out this week Powell will probably be getting 95% of the touches out of a backfield that is starting a rookie QB. The opportunity for success will be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Forte is out, Powell is arguably a top 5 RB this week against Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mag112 Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 Â You really made yourself look silly here. If Forte is out, Powell is arguably a top 5 RB this week against Miami. I guess I did. I was just taking back when I first saw that projection. I mean David Johnson was only projected couple points higher last week @ Mia . I thought it would have been like 11.9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the outlaw Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Yeah, I'm looking for a contingency back-up plan for Gordon, and I'm highly considering Powell over Farrow - I'm liking both match-ups this week, but Powell is clearly more proven than the rookie UDFA, but that doesn't always mean anything, especially w/RBs...we shall see...

Montana is da Man Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I would expect Miami to stack the box against Powell and make Petty beat them with throws to his WR and TE. It may not make for an easy day but again, if Forte is out I can see Powell easily handling 15 - 20 touches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its so tempting to put Powell in my flex, BUT Mia going make Petty beat them in the air Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdko Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I wonder what Robby Anderson's value will be this week. He's had 23 targets over the last 2 games, which is pretty nuts. I'd have to check, but isn't Miami way better up front than in their secondary..?? Anderson could be an interesting flex play (moreso in PPR) for these championship weeks.

Crazysight Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) I would expect Miami to stack the box against Powell and make Petty beat them with throws to his WR and TE. It may not make for an easy day but again, if Forte is out I can see Powell easily handling 15 - 20 touches You'd think San Fran wouldve done the same too though. Neither Miami nor San Fran boast good run defenses at 29th and 31st ranked, respectively. With Matt Moore starting at QB (and the Jets boasting a decent run defense, unlike Miami) there should be lots of opportunity for the Jets to move the ball, assuming that Miami is unable to do so on their end.
