Barkley is strange to me - at his weight I would expect him to be a more physical runner.
Obviously; there is a lot of success for the top end agility runners and that seems to be Barkley; just weirds me out with his weight - but I guess it probably helps with his durability (maybe?).
From watching his tape - I worry that a lot of what he does will not work at the NFL level.
That said - if I had the 1.01 and could get the prices I'm seeing him go for, I would be selling. I am not sold on him as an elite NFL running back. Will he be good to great? Potentially, but I don't see him being the gamebreaker he is made out to be.
Nonetheless, will be one of the more interesting things to watch unfold.

Re: Saquon Barkley - RB - THE RB Y'all
I just landed the 1.01 in a league's lottery where I missed the playoffs by a tie breaker this past season. So, now he is definitely GOAT material in my opinion. Seriously though, I probably agree with Phaded in that he will be good to great, but I have the gut feeling he will not be a league winner. Is that a bad thing? Depends how you look at it, or what you pay for him. I will hold unless i get these awesome offers that i see on here, just too good of value to pass up. My leagues generally do not get those types of offers though, so we will see. I only have to start 1 RB (but can start up to 3), so that factors into my thought process. Watching BIG10 games frequently, I likes the flashes, but the games of being completely shut down left a lot to be desired. The bad line play helps the optimistic outlook, but he did have solid playmakers around him at qb/wr/te, whereas a Guice had a good line with an awful QB. Plus stout SEC defenses a lot of the time. Not that I am arguing Guice over him or anything, though I had the two very close coming into this season. I am holding til at least the NFL draft.
