Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
Why? Howard is probably locked into their 2-down Blount role no matter what. Ito is a Freeman injury away from a lot of targets and carries in a good offense.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
This has to be Smith. You are in trouble if you are relying on Howard to "Win now". Smith is going to be a nice flex play once Freeman goes down.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
Win now, I would go with Howard pretty easily but neither or good options for a win now team.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
He's probably just as likely to hold up as Freeman (which isn't that likely).Chwf3rd wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 4:07 pmDo you really think Ito is capable of handling the load if Freeman goes down?ColdZealDonkeyStrike wrote: ↑Fri May 10, 2019 5:32 amWhy?

But Even if he can't hold up more then a few games, a few games if Ito in the #1 role in Atlanta is worth more than anything Howard will give you. Howard is just a desperation "start and hope for a goal line TD" option unless he magically finds another John Fox offense.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
i very much doubt ito is a lock at n2 for the falcons. he's nothing special.
and if freeman goes down it's likely they'll bring someone else in (unless ollison turns out well).

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
No one said he's a lock or special. I just said he's a better bet than Howard. Give me the bum who can get targets over the bum who can get GL carries.killer_of_giants wrote: ↑Mon May 13, 2019 1:48 am i very much doubt ito is a lock at n2 for the falcons. he's nothing special.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
let's put it this way: i see ollison as a better bet than ito.
Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
If you are in a win now mode and end up having to rely on either of these RB's you're unlikely to be "winning now"....Jordan Howard was a nice flash in the pan and has shown he can be a good thumper behind a solid O-line but his fantasy outlook is looking bleak in Philly and I think Ito Smith is nothing special in any way and I find it hard to believe he would even be a decent play if Freeman goes down.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
I gathered that. I would think Atlanta continues some sort of split, even before Freeman goes out. It's what they have done for years.killer_of_giants wrote: ↑Mon May 13, 2019 9:27 am let's put it this way: i see ollison as a better bet than ito.
They're both kind of turds, but targets are worth at least 2 carries to me (even before PPR) and Ito is in an offense that throws to RBs, utilizes multiple RBs, and has unproven depth. I just think their are several more paths to him having some fantasy relevant games than Howard. Even if Sanders gets hurt, I don't see Howard being used in the passing game.

Re: Ito Smith Vs. Jordan Howard
i get that, we just disagree: i think ito's role will shrink fairly rapidly despite the unproven depth at RB.
howard will not be involved much in the passing game, no. but i can see a couple of multiple touchdowns games from him.
