Let's compete the exercise:

1. Paul Perkins
2. Rob Kelley
3. Terrance West
4. ?

If you did not sell him after he actually performed, you did it wrong.

Hey that's not fair! Lewis isn't better than Kelley or West. Just because they're two of the worst starters in the league doesn't mean Lewis is better than them.

Lewis might be better than the combo of Blount/Smallwood, but probably isn't better than Sproles who is the RB to own in Philly whether or not he "starts."

[/quote]I tend to agree with you. I was just trying to entertain the thought of who might have less sheer talent than Dion Lewis. Because I do think he has real TALENT that is above average, but not consistency and DEFINITELY not durability. And those things matter hugely.

He was cut in my PPR performance scoring dynasty league about 25 minutes ago and I scooped him up 30 minutes ago. I dropped Alfred Morris to get him. I'm hoping for a lotto pick here. The kid is clearly good at football just needs an opportunity in New England or elsewhere.
