Most teams don’t always start their starters week 1 of preseason. Think it’s smart to save him for the season.

Mike Boone's TD run was awesome. I think he can beat out Mattison.

Washington did look great. Just like last year in preseason. Hopefully this is a confidence booster for him and this can start translating into the regular season.

I thought Mattison looked pretty awesome today... seems to be embracing that Latavious "smash big" role.

As a vikes fan, season ticket holder -

I’m really used to seeing the backup RBs look really good in the preseason, seems like a trend. Hell, Abdullah looked good and we know what he is.

Was really hoping to hear anything about Bruce Anderson since Tampa acquired him, but it’s been so quiet that I had to cut him when we slashed our taxi squad from 10 to 4. Still hope he gets some show, but he appears to be fully buried at the moment.

Remember Arians kind of hid David Johnson a bit too, like didn't give him full run until late in the season. I would add Bruce near midseason if I had room just to be safe ..

Trent Taylor with a broken foot... Seemed like he had taken the slot over. Curious to see who steps up.

Richie James is getting a lot of run here early .. more than the slot though. Don't forget the big slot, JMatt

His stats weren’t great but how’d he look?
He looked very explosive. But it was after the starters were out on offense. So it'll take some time to leap frog at least Edwards and Dixon. Unless however, the Ravens were attempting to showcase either for a trade.
Hill will definitely get the nod over Dixon. Dixon has had his chances. Ravens will move onto the younger guy that they have under contract longer

agree with this. But Im solidified in my stance that Ingram is the guy this year, very possibly beyond even.

I got a hunch Ingram will be fantasy useful (not a stud) for several years yet.

At 31 years old? I would not take that bet. In fact before Kamara showed up, wasnt Ingram busted up all the time when given a big workload? Someone can correct that if I'm wrong.

Id operate under the caveat that he wont ever have a big workload again, yeah. The QB will be involved in the run game plenty, and the guys under him are serviceable enough to spread it around some. I just plain dont see: A) any of these guys passing Ingram on the chart, this year for sure, next year probably not. B) the ravens investing in someone who will for the next year or 2.
