This is the most ignorant comment I have ever seen. Comparing a guy who walked out of a weight room as a personal trainer off of family relation and a guy who has busted his butt to make it in football his whole life is a pretty horrible thing.

It has begun! Any movement is good movement when you start at the bottom!
Devante Mays: Works as No. 2 running back (RotoWire) Mays has worked as the Packers' No. 2 running back in practice this week, ESPN.com reports. Analysis: In reality, Mays is more like Green Bay's third running back, but with starter Ty Montgomery (leg) sidelined, the rookie is showcasing what he can do. Mays could well be poised to move past Aaron Jones on the team's depth chart, and could see increased playing time in Saturday's preseason game against Washington.

“Talented runner,” coach Mike McCarthy said. “He not only will make you miss, but he runs with power. Very natural with the run instincts. He’s got more to learn. He’s not comfortable 100 percent on some of the things we’re doing, but I’ve been very impressed with him when he has the ball in his hand.”

Picked him up in quite a few leagues because of your original post lol, knew nothing about him. If it pans out, I have you to thank!

If he starts the season as their rb2 somehow, i will look to sell!

Picked him up today. Just looking for another underdog to root for in preseason, since Rico won't play this week.
3x teams in 32-team standard PPR + IDP leagues

It doesn't matter what we want. Once we get it, we want something else.

Awesome! And if you do, you know there will be buyers as I believe it is the Constitution that states all dynasty leagues must have AT LEAST one Green Bay homer

Not leagues from MN. There are plenty of GB fans that are tolerated in MN but we don't have to allow them into our leagues!

Im in a bunch of MN leagues and there are at least a few Pack fans per league. Though the couple all MN redrafts I play in you get the best value on Cheese head players. Border towns are the best....

Nice post. Is it me or does he ram his head into defenders a little much?

https://youtu.be/nJR1ZGSapcI

Seems like the first half of this video is him running his face into the defender. I like his running but man you got to protect those brains.

Has to be regional... I've been playing a long, long time and not sure there were ever any in my leagues. Always a Steelers homer tho. One season I played with three. And almost always a Cowboys one too.

Well that would be neat, then you would have some Viking fans that are men, and not all little schoolgirls. Lol!
