I like my handcuff picks to have star potential if they get the starting job. Corey Grant fits the bill. With how Rod Smith has been looking... and behind that Cowboys OL... Smith fits the bill too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Rod a lot. He has little competition as backup and he has the body to handle 20+ touches per game if Zeke were to get hurt or suspended. It would be impossible not to be a top 10 fantasy running back while getting 20 touches a game behind the Dallas offensive line. Corey Grant, on the other hand, would probably be in an equal timeshare with Yeldon if Fournette were to get hurt. But I think Grant could do special things will his 15 touches per game. A lot of people don't like drafting handcuffs unless they own the starter. I love drafting handcuffs. I like my players to have star potential even if they are on the bench. I don't like wasting roster space on wide receivers that have a ceiling of WR3. And you know what you have in a handcuff. If the starter is healthy, the handcuff is dropable. If the starter is hurt, you have a potential stud. When you draft a wide receiver late in the draft or pick one up in free agency, you never know what you have. Even when they do well you don't know what you have. It makes them tough to drop and also tough to start.

gilthorp Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Watching the Bears is just as painful as it was last year. They play these pre-season games and 2 of their top draft picks over the last few years can't make it through Q1. And Mitch ain't that good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
