Kendre Miller vs Charbonnet

[Jcedwards]

I think these are the 2 that I’m targeting at 1.09. If both are available, which one would you take:

Miller- 3 down skill set; great opportunity this year with AK possibly suspended and an old Jamaal Williams ahead of him; bellcow in 24 possibly?

Charbonnet- 3 down skill set as well; better talent than Miller IMO, but landing spot is terrible; can be a league winner if Walker goes down/ if he overtakes him

Miller seems to have the much better opportunity in the short term. Both are good stashes and while Seattle could split touches, I would still bank on Miller in the immediate on value and potential value gain. Both are solid prospects as well.

Kendre is a more explosive player. I like both players, but I drafted Kendre over Charbs everywehere. Junior, a year plus younger. He left after 3 years to get day 2 capital, even with an injury. Charbs in 23 in January, had to return to school to get day 2, as a senior. Not a death knell, but that extra year, for RB's especially, adds value, in life time value, and just prospects value coming into the NFL. Underclassmen that get day 2 capital with a skill set and body type that are like Kendre's, are tough to get.

I think Kendre is the better runner, and the RB I would take in Standard leagues.
Charbonnet is more valuable in PPR leagues due to his receiving skills, IMO.

Appreciate the input. I actually had the chance to pick between the 2 and I went Charbonnet. Think he is a better athlete. Time will tell if I made the right decision.

I mean, Kendre hit 21.9 MPH on the football field last year, I know he didn't get to test, but he's faster than Charbs. I went the other way in all my drafts, but I've been wrong before.

Agreed. Kendre never gets caught from behind, he has great breakaway speed imo.

I'm a huge Kendre Miller fan, I probably over drafted him at 4 overall in a recent rookie dynasty draft. I just see a pretty clear path to being the future RB1 there.

I love Charbonet as well, he would of been my pick if it wasn't Seattle who drafted him. I still think Walker is the top dog there.

16 to 15. Seems consensus is split, pretty evenly.

This poll is closer than what most other places which have it as clearly Charbonnet.

I haven't budged and still like Kendre more until I see otherwise

Yeah, me too. Charbs upright style concerns me, and didn't impress me at all in the pre-season. Walker is the vastly more talented player, so I think his upside is capped. Kamara is obviously a great player, but I have more belief Kendre can get a sizeable role in the future. He moves better, IMO. Charbs just doens't look like a fluid player on an NFL field to my eyes.
