Is AP’s success in 2018 primarily due to system or talent?

Postby ajf235 » Wed Oct 31, 2018 12:38 pm

As a Guice owner in a keeper league, seeing AP light it up this year is making me think I’ve been underestimating Guice’s true upside (despite already believing it to be sky high). The Washington o line looks excellent and despite a “split” backfield between Thompson and AP, AP is getting bellcow touches at 33 and I have to imagine a fully healthy 22 year old Guice coming off an ACL tear 12+ months prior is at least as good as AP at 33 and should viewed as at least a high end RB2 as early as next year (assuming he’s fully healthy by preseason) with top 5 upside.

Am I crazy to think this or do you guys agree with me? And do you guys think AP’s success is more a product of the Redskins’ system/o line/gameplan or more a product of AP’s talent?

Washington's o line was very good until they got murdered by injuries 3 weeks ago

Guice owners should be tap dancing to see what he can do next year on that team. Even if Guice is a bust of a talent he's still a top 15 fantasy rb, and I do not think tbink there are any ability concerns of Guice

I'd try to buy, but no owner is ever selling.
