He had a few flashes in preseason, but I can count the plays on one hand. With digits to spare.
He's terrible. He's literally terrible. He was cut by the Saints, and he's not coming back.

I'm guessing he's going to their practice squad, so.
To all those who asked me on these forums for help acquiring him, and I said avoid at all costs, I hope you listened.
"Help acquring him"? Did Ozigbo even have an ADP in 6-round rookie drafts? Were you giving them a video tutorial on where to click to add players off a waiver-wire? Who were these people? :eh:

Your manner reminds me of another guy that used to post a lot here.

That shouldn't say "asking me", that should just say "asking". And tbh that sentence should be deleted. I just hated the guy so much that I went too far.

If you read the Dynasty Team Advice forum there were maybe a dozen people asking for price checks and what to spend to get him. The hype for a guy that was never going to amount to anything was insane.

I attributed a lot of it to preseason broadcasters calling him the rb3 in NO while Dwayne Washington sat out with a concussion. DW seemed pretty entreched, so I never really got the hype.

So Saints twitterverse was right; Ozigbo didn't make it through waivers.

In terms of fantasy upside analytics there was no place better than NO for Ozigbo (and most RBs) in the league, but Jags are a solid landing spot for any deep sleeper RB candidate, what with Leo's apparent inability to remain healthy.

Of course, I don't see Ozigbo jumping in and usurping Armstead for the #2 job quickly -- Jags actually drafted Armstead, afterall -- but in college Ozigbo demonstrated moderately better 3-down utility than Armstead, and I think the tape shows he's more athletic, too. Plus, Armstead struggled in preseason until the annual fourth game stats inflation.

Three teams made waiver claims on Ozigbo. I guess his preseason flashed more than I thought. https://twitter.com/FieldYates/status/1 ... 0811583489

Jacksonville is a terrific landing spot for him. He's a great Fournette handcuff. Armstead had UDFA tape to me and followed that up with a lackluster preseason.

Ozigbo is a borderline must own for Fournette's owners in 12 teams or more.
