12 team PPR currently rostering Cam Akers who would likely never see my lineup even if Mixon is out again. Holding until we get a Joe update obviously but which of these guys has the highest stand alone as a handcuff?

BAL Hill
GB Wilson
CHI Johnson
NYG Tracy
BUF Davis
SF Guerendo

Would probably be better off RNG'ing lol.

But I guess I'd rank

Johnson
Wilson
Hill
Davis
Tracy
Guerendo

Johnson is the only one on the list with a chance to actually win 50%+ of his backfield without injury, and it look like he might be on his way. lolSwift. Wilson is good for now, especially with Jacobs not looking great and Lloyd on the shelf, but not sure what Wilson's end of season upside looks like.

I guess in a league that deep. But Warren has really disappointed so far, which I think is mainly due to his injury. First the hammy and now the knee. Hopefully he can get healthy.

Najee is one of the backs who somehow never gets injured. The guy has never missed an NFL game. It's remarkable.

It’s crazy . His arm was in a sling and he’s still out there.

I guess I shouldn't say never gets injured haha. He just plays through every single one. He's at 1,040 NFL touches. He had 718 touches at Bama. Never missed a college game, either. 2x national champion.

Honestly, he doesn't get enough respect. The best ability is availability. And while he'll never be the flashiest, fastest, most athletic, best metrics, whatever, he just continues to grind.

He hasn’t been amazing this year, but he’s been ok. Last year he was pretty decent. I think he is just so negatively viewed bc of how much he failed 2x as a high fantasy pick, which is completely reasonable

I never drafted him when he was that high so I guess I’ve never felt the disappointment haha

Yeah, I perceive him as more valuable irl than for fantasy, which is a tough thing for us fantasy players to differentiate lol.

Only 5 career fumbles on those 1,040 touches.

Definitely a plodder who gets by on volume. Warren, Patterson and Fields should be enough to keep his numbers on their current downward trend. Guy just doesn't catch enough anymore to truly be valuable in PPR.

I took Moss over him and never gave it a second thought (also took Javonte Williams before Harris but that's not gonna help my post)

I wish I had continued my Javonte fade in best ball. But I FOMO’d some after Payton’s comments about him losing weight and looking good. That dude is toast.

Yeah I had a 2week pause on Javonte and then I went back to hammering him. I’m at 19% in best ball

I have a strong opinion on FAAB and dynasty. To me it should be waivers reverse standings every week. I don't think the best team in the league should be able to empty the clip and get better. Need to give us scrubs a chance to improve our team. I'm a minority?
