gijoerock Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Jaylen Hurts and Josh Allen posess the same amount of fantasy points. However I had no luck trying to trade this guy to fantasy managers with worse QB's. Anyone else seeing a similar trend.

League_Champion Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I think it's because his starter status is so up in the air. He's just not a good NFL QB, great fantasy QB though. A lot of people believe Gardner Minshew will be the starter before the year is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gijoerock Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 Here we are in week #11 and he's still starting. I don't see how benching Hurts would help the Eagles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 This is when fantasy and reality don't match up. He has been playing better recently, they have to keep playing Hurts to see he if he continues to develop. This is really like a rookie year for him.

Shaft Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Hurts also hasn't had his bye week, so Allen is averaging more per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His numbers would be a lot better if the refs would be a little friendly to the Eagles offense. I have watched over 5+ TD's nullified by the officials. The Eagles record doesn't reflect their capabilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Eagles record doesn't reflect their capabilities. This is exactly what they have to do with him. You can't ask Hurts to do too much. The o-line is allowing them to run the ball and execute their short yardage offense. They were asking him to do too much the first 5 games.

It has worked for the Patriots and now its working for the Eagles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is confident Allen will finish the season with the same production to this point? Philly isn't asking Hurts to throw the ball. He only had 13 completions today. When he gets into shootouts is when he's in trouble. He's fine against lesser competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gijoerock Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 I expect his fantasy numbers to remain even if not more than Josh Allen. The Bills are not asking Allen to run and he's thrown a few picks in the last 3 games. Buffalo is wearing down while the Eagles are discovering their blueprint.

The coaching staff has finally realized that there's just some things that he can't do, and they've gotten away from that stuff. If you watched those early games they were asking him to throw it 30+ times a game. He's just not accurate enough to be a high volume passing QB.

stethant Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Hurts is gonna be on a tear with their upcoming schedule. Not sure I would trade him for Allen, to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 He's definitely keeping a lid on the fantasy production of anybody on his team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would package Hurts/Mattison or Hurts/Darrell Williams for a solid RB #2. Damien Harris, James Conner or Cordelle Patterson. All rejected. Keep in mind I have Josh Allen as my starter.

I tried to trade Allen once and the manager came back with a BS counter offer. 3 of his trash guys for J. Allen. I just let it sit and allowed him to ponder.
