Cam Akers Dynasty RB Rank

Postby Jigga94 » Mon Jan 24, 2022 11:45 am

Lots of debate around this guy... I am somewhere in the middle of everything. No way I pay top RB prices, but would buy if an owner was selling low. So wanted to get a poll and see where everyone was at on ranking.

24 of the other top RB in no order... figured Akers wasn't outside of anyone's top 25 at least...

11 - 15 range seems fair to me. It is incredible he is back and producing while carrying a big workload. I would have interest in buying for the right price but in reality, his rushing stats have not been great at all and his hype is out huge. He is a risky buy still and a set back or injury could be very costly.

I have 11-15 area. I am ok with him as my teams RB2 but prefer him as the RB3 with upside. Depending on how the draft plays its possible I would rather have Hall or Walker as well.

Bump. Interesting to look at this. The Poll closed in April.

He looked awful again opening night with very limited touches. He could still rebound but I am very glad I have zero shares.

I don't see any justification to put him in the top 30 right now given the incredible risk and seemingly capped upside.

They just signed another RB might be a bad sign for Akers!

Terrific! What did I win????

In one of my 12 team Dynasty leagues I just traded away James Robinson, Cam Akers, and a 2023 late 3rd round pick for Breece Hall.

That was the one and only share of Akers that I had, and I picked that team up as an orphan before the 2021 season started.
So now I am Akers free.

A Cam Akers rookie card. Scratch that, a Cam Akers year 3 card, to better coincide with his dynasty value. :wink:
