McKinney fantasy utility >>>>> Hightower's fantasy utility. I love Hightower in real life, and I'm a Chicago guy. He's the epitome of selfless hard-nosed, quiet grinder. McKinney shows all of those traits AND has youth and IDP utility working on his side. Gimme McKinney all day.

I own him in plenty leagues and he's already paid back on the investments.
Same, here brother. I love having him plugged in as an auto-start for two of my teams. McKinney came with >50% of analysts saying he'd never be a 3-down 'backer. He barely came off the field last year. I always had him comp'd to David Harris.
Get a room, you 2... :wink:

Hasn't he already developed into a better IDP than Hightower....he had a really high scoring last year. And if I recall other than 1 great year Hightower has been middle of the pack?

Revitalize this conversation and wonder can Bowman find the right job for the next 2-3 years? Or will he be a stopgap for the team where he lands?

I don't like Bowman anywhere he lands. Said this in my Bowman trade update but will repeat since there are so few of us on IDP forum. NFL teams determine "assists" and 49ers award lots of assists. I don't remember the exact percentage but they were one of a handful of teams with significant higher percentage. Bowman looks slower, has to learn and fit in a new defense, and the knees are always easier to injury after the first surgery. Add that likely won't get the number of assists and he seems likely done.

I hear Bowman is visiting with the Raiders and Cowboys this week. The Cowboys seem like an odd fit to me...unless he is going there for depth.

Does Bowman signing with the Raiders kill Corey James value?

Not really a question for me. I'd say a three-putt bogey. A par 5 green in 2 or a 4 in 1 are more impressive than a 4 in 2 or a 5 in 3 and at least your still hitting a par.

PS:
If this was some kind of joke that went over my head, I totally got it. I'm just playing along.

At this point, I wouldn't start ANY Raider ILB for at least a week or 2. They are looking like the Giants from the past several years (or the Titans this year), with a very gross rotation of snaps and no one startable.

Raiders seem very loyal to vets
I think he has a good chance to be LB2 the rest of the way

Looks like Bowman is starting the game tonight. Not putting him my line-up, but be good to see him out there so quickly.

Have had him in one league and traded away Beckwith for him in another this past week... Benched Bowman in both leagues. Looks like I may've made the wrong lineup decision there.
