Running backs

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

I think Drake will be Top 20 this year, maybe top 15. I understand why many on this thread have ranked him last. But to say "who cares" implies it's either an extremely shallow league (8 team?) or folks are really underestimating his worth in 2019.
"Marathon Square" - 16 team full PPR league with 24 player roster. Keep 16 per year indefinitely, draft 8. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Team DST
QB: Jordan Love, Deshaun Watson
RB: Travis Etienne, Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams, Kendre Miller, Jaleel McLaughlin, Sean Tucker, Deuce Vaughn
WR: A.J. Brown, Garrett Wilson, Tee Higgins, Calvin Ridley, Michael Wilson, Kendrick Bourne, Tutu Atwell, Allen Lazard, Isaiah Hodgins, Justin Shorter
TE: T.J. Hockenson, Cole Kmet, Kylen Granson
K: Didn't make the playoffs in 2023 :cry: , and don't usually hold one in the offseason
Team DST: Cowboys, Lions

Picks:
2024: All my picks except 3rd rounder

Disclaimer: My one and only Championship in this league was way back in 2011. Therefore, take my replies with the appropriate grain of salt. :lol:

Interesting views. Thank you all.
I have to admit to being a bit concerned about Michel, but the past week has seen his value drop precipitously. I was thinking of what players I'd target and these were in the range. Of them all I think Mack has most upside, but still has had his injuries and losing a lot of passing down work to Hines.
Maybe it's best wait til Michel is back in practice as I think I may be more comfortable still with him over the other options on this list given his talent, fitness permitting.
One could add Carson too, but he too is out which was why I excluded him. I also think Seahawks would be prepared to move on fast from him
