How concerned are we about Sony?

[ColdZealDonkeyStrike]

It's alarming to me that none of those other guys followed up on their one good season in NE.

I agree. Just for record keeping sake, it looks like you screwed up the quote because I didn't say that

Sorry. I'll fix it.

edit: Fixed.

Thanks

I think Ridley may have had a shot but he started off 2013 with a fumbling issue (or rather concerns with his fumbling carried over into 2013) so he got benched for Blount (his first NE stint before going to Pittsburgh) then the next year he tore his ACL and was never the same.

I definitely think White will maintain his role - but so long as Michel can remain healthy, due to the volume likely to be provided by the Patriots offence - they almost always reach 400 rushing attempts (and usually at least 430-450) - that he could be their first back-to-back 200 attempts guy since Dillon.

Highly concerned

Only if you are an owner. If you are not, you're probably thinking or writing "told ya so."

On the bright side it does give him time to promote his new EP.

I kneed to hear this!

Im a HUGE pats fan but so happy i traded him for Josh Jacobs. Sony is very talented and ill never forget his 2019 post season that helped us win it all but for fantasy he is not looking like a great investment.

Traded Michel off the last of my teams a week or so ago. Very relieved even if my last two deals weren’t great, I wanted to shed the risk regardless. For now, those last two deals seem to be a plus & maybe he’s available for a steeper discount in August or September. Wonder what kind of pick comp he’s traded for in September if he’s on the shelf during the opening of the season.

Perfect time to buy Sony

I expect very solid numbers. Maybe he misses some games....im not concerned. There are enough touches when healthy. For what its worth, im quite a bit higher on Harris than most and wouldnt be suprised if he has his moments aswell.

[Sriracha]

I'm really not concerned about Sony's health. It is what it is, and he'll likely have a short career but it won't stop him this season.

I do think Damien Harris is a bigger threat to eat into his workload than people are giving him credit for, though... so I'd be looking to move Sony once all of this clears up.

[sugbear65]

I like Harris too, I would have said more than most but it seems like a lot of us seem to be behind him. I don’t dislike Sony either, I’d be a little concerned for career longevity but not a huge short term concern for me, though it will grow with the amount of missed time. My biggest worry is that they both play for the Pats. On nearly any other team as a 1a or 1b I would probably like these guys more. But the weekly game of “duck, duck, goose” for touches doesn’t translate as great to the fantasy world like it does in the real world.

2018: Rex-5th round, Michel-8th round, White-11th round (if I remember correctly).  White finished highest in PPR, Michel close behind and better in standard.

2017: Gillislee was the highest drafted, followed by Rex, followed by Dion, and Dion Lewis ended up being the most valuable.

2016: Dion Lewis was drafted highest after a great 2015 (cut short by injury), followed by White, followed by Blount.  Blount was the most valuable.

2015: Blount was the highest drafted, followed by Jonas Gray.  Dion Lewis was the undrafted cheap pickup who stole our hearts.

Am I misremembering anything or is the most expensive always the worst, and the cheapest always the best?

Pats RB is the only position in all of dynasty that I will blindly reject.

Agreed.

Probably not many RB's in the NFL without knee problems. When he misses 8-10 games in a season or 4 in consecutive seasons because of it maybe I get concerned
