So.... Kenyan Drake is legit?

Postby Rtreilly81 » Sun Dec 03, 2017 1:47 pm

I’ve been shopping him the past week but have only been offered bleep in return. Is he the real thing? This kid just keeps producing. Am I crazy to think he has legit 2018 potential as a RB2/flex type guy

If the offers aren't worth it, I would just hold him

Watch some tape on him. There are some nice things to see. I would hang a bit longer. I have a few shares on him. Offers are low if at all. He may continue to rise. Good luck!

He probably won't do much after this run and I do think they'll draft an RB next year.

I (and I can't imagine anyone would) wouldn't pay much for him but I wouldn't take less than 2nd for him (after yesterday atleast)

He'll probably never be worth a 1st, if you think about the type of player you could get for a first - he's not on the list.

I'm going to respectfully disagree. They absolutely may draft a RB next year, I would if I were Miami. But I am a big Drake fan. They took him in the 3rd. He's got some darn good wheels on him, he often bounces outside, but if that gets cleaned up a bit he is absolutely the real deal.

Agree with most of this. He'll probably be in some type of RB by committee next year and I wouldn't give up a 1st for him. If I owned him, I'd want at least a 2nd. Reminds me a little bit of Steve Slaton from several years ago.

Our trade deadline was a month ago and I flipped him for a 2018 3rd/2019 4th as that was the best offer i could get and i didn't have any use for him. Kind of wish i just would have held...we only keep 11 and i just dont have the room to keep him.

I think he's a legit talent; but I suspect he'll be in some sort of timeshare next year.

I agree on the RBBC on Drake. He is not a bellcow imo. A 1st would be an accept for sure.

what are you giving for "potential rb2/flex"? that is why your offers are bleep. as mentioned....you either take a little something for him or just hold.

im an owner in a few leagues, and like the potential, but i cant imagine that he's a 3 down rb....at this point....will sell if i can get a wr prospect that i like for him.
