He had a high grade on him. Right there with Dynami and Eskridge. WTH happened here? I liked him a lot.

Chubb averaged more YPC and was second in the league in rushing DVOA despite handling more carries.

Sanders is good, but he doesn’t have the skill set to be a RB1 without significant receiving work. This isn’t some damning criticism, it’s true of most RBs. I listed Henry and Chubb because I think they’re exceptions.

I’m not panic-selling Sanders or anything, but I think pretending like this doesn’t matter is short-sighted.
Top 5 ypc for RBs in 2020 were 1. Dobbins (134/6.0) 2. Chubb (190/5.6) 3. Jones (201/5.5) 4. Henry (378/5.4) 5. Sanders (164/5.3)

Not saying hes a better runner than Chubb and Henry, but he looked a lot better on the ground in 2020 than people have been giving him credit for and it shows in the stats. I wasn't trying to sell Sanders as being a top 6 RB but low RB1/high RB2 is fair. Gainwell is a great receiver but I dont think Sanders targets evaporate to the point I'd fade him to a low rb2.

Not trying to start an argument or anything. Just my 2 cents.

Yeah, and I don’t think Sanders is bad on the ground. He’s good!

I just don’t think he can maintain that efficiency over the number of carries that he would need in order to compensate for losing receiving work.

Sour grapes
I dont think you know what that phrase means. But yes I'm coming for an angle of a disgruntled Jrob bagholder. Still right though.

Sour grapes would be me saying the Jacksonville backfield wouldn't be good for fantasy to begin with, and that I didn't really want it in the first place.

"The grapes are probably sour anyway." = "Jacksonville is bad for fantasy anyway."

Yup, been thinking the differences in SF pick values are huge this year. Lawrence being the 1.09ish says more about what's after Pitts, the top few WR and 3-4 RB to me. After that it just feels like a decent drop to WR like Marshall, Bateman, E. Moore and then and even bigger drop to more QB, WR under 5'10 and day 3 RB

I was thinking the same thing. I love players in the 6-10 range but outside the first, IDK about depth. Feels like late 2nd is weak, and 3rd/4th are ALL fliers. I may actually move my later picks to try and get back into the 1st.
