Worried about M. Gordon?

Postby jojo5151 » Fri Oct 06, 2017 10:08 am

Looked pretty slow last week & we know he's dinged up. Is it time to worry or is he still considered a stud? I just traded for him & got zip last week..

Idk if he's necessarily a stud player, but he's a fantasy RB1 mostly based on volume.

He's been dealing with a knee bone bruise so it's not worry for long term issue, it will heal up soon enough.

Low end RB1. That line of theirs is really bad, but he most certainly is very up and down. I'd be worried when they bring in a complimentary battering ram to take 6-8 carries away which I thought they'd do with someone like James Conner last April.

I'd be shocked if he didn't finish as a RB1 as long as he stays healthy.

He was battling a bone bruise. Guy is still a stud in fantasy.

Not a stud. I think he'll average around the 10-12 in his career. I actually think the chargers bringing in a battering ram helps Gordon. He looks like he needs a break at points and a breather could help his game

I felt for sure the Texans, Vikings, Chargers and Eagles would grab a RB in the first four rounds. 2/4

I agree, I was saying don't expect Lev Bell production, but he will be a set and forget for years to come

I'm a little worried. He should finish as a RB1 as long as he stays healthy but I don't think he will ever be the stud he was drafted as. Drafted him a lot in redraft but not very excited about his longterm outlook. I had two shares of him before the season and sold both. Gave him up for Michael Thomas and gave Gordon, Treadwell, Tate and a 2nd for Arob + Cooks.

I'm worried, but I've already sold. He's overrated. 3.7 yards per carry....yikes
