Haha that's awesome. I've never gotten into best ball, but I feel like it's something I should do for practice and some extra entertainment throughout the season. Where do you find your leagues? All on Draft Kings?

Now we only have a 7 game sample without Adams but his targets went from 3.7 per game to 6.7 and his rec yards from 20.6 per game to 55.43. Now of course he has AJ Dillon stealing a ton of the ground work but I don't think it's a worse situation for him than Javonte and Gordon which I see as just being the same as it was last year with maybe a slight increase for Javonte.
With Swift I'd love to see a massive breakout for him but the team is still so bad that i'm mainly concerned about a lack of TD's.
Love AJB still in the top 20. He's been one of the best values in the 3rd at the moment as everyone is down on him for obvious reasons but he was already playing in a run 1st team so don't see how things will be that different.
I actually just did a trade for him in a super deep IDP league where I traded Tlaw for AJB + a 4th. Like it just now , should probably of went for a higher pick, but if Tlaw shows any promise this year it could be a shocking trade
I'm a little confused what you're saying in the first two paragraphs. I think you are talking about A Jones in spots where you're saying Adams haha. Now that I'm looking at it again, I think I need to move Chubb and Jones above Keenan and Diontae, but I don't think I can go any higher right now.
I expect both Javonte and Swift to get at least 60%-70% of the snaps in their respective backfields while being the lead backs. I think the Gordon signing was more insurance than a return to a similar role, especially with him looking at other teams, how late the Broncos signed him, and then the meager contract they gave him. Javonte gradually increased his snap % throughout the season. He had less than 50% 7 of the first 9 games. He had less than 50% only once in the final 8 games. Add in an insane QB upgrade, and the ceiling is sky high for him, imo.
I expect Jones to get maybe 45-50% while gradually becoming the 1B. 4 of his last 6 games played last year, he had less than 50% of the snaps and rushed for single digits 3 times and for 10 one time. He legit has a range of outcome of finishing in the RB25-30 range if Dillon pushes him down in the backfield. I just don't see him having the same upside as Javonte or Swift. I respect the point about Adams and all of the targets that will need to go elsewhere, however, his rushing volume has continued to diminish with Dillon's increased role. And I'd put his target per game o/u at more like 5 than 7. Dillon will probably be my target in that backfield, especially since he will be able to be had rounds later than Jones. I don't think I'll have any of Jones at his ADP this year. Looks like Fantasy Pros data has him at 22 right now. Dillon is at 62.
I think the Lions offense will be better than we expect. Swift was pretty damn good in the games he played last season. He was 10th in average points scored per game among RBs, and I think that's his floor.
I definitely love the AJB discounts too. I actually think he sets a career high for targets in a season this year. The Eagles are going to feed him, especially with their JAG backfield. A lot of things going his way like the trade, the contract, the fact that Hurts wanted him badly, Hurts improving efficiency last year, etc.
