Antonio Gibson passes Ezekiel Elliot in consensus dynasty value for good by mid-season.

Zach Wilson will be a ROY finalist at year's end.

I feel like Gibson already has passed Zeke. He has for me anyway

Yes, Gibson is already significantly higher than Zeke in ADP anywhere I've seen.

This guy really going out on a limb with his flag plant.

I do like the Wilson call. I'm rooting for him.

heh that's me the limb walker lol - I don't think it's anywhere near consensus yet. surprised at how many of my league mates still revere zeke & underestimate gibson. To wit, one guy offered me zeke for the 1.02, and when I declined agreed to give me gibson to move up from 1.07 to 1.02. doh! Wish I had zeke in some of those leagues so I could trade him away.

RB Position

Every top 6 2020 RB finishes top 16 this year--Swift and Akers mid RB1s, Taylor and CEH low RB1s (Taylor because Wentz's suckage drags down the offense) and Gibson and Dobbins high RB2s

Zack Moss pulls a 2020 David Montgomery and strings together enough TD heavy games as the Bills primary back to provide an RB2 finish despite not being anything special as a talent

Zeke still sucks and shows what anyone who has watched him has known for a while: that he is washed. Pollard starts to get more work over the course of the season

No rookie RB finishes above mid to late RB2

Myles Gaskin doesn't finish the season as the Dolphins starter

Joe Mixon has "low RB1 on PPG" finish that has 3-4 massive blowup games and a bunch of garbage games that aren't even RB2 caliber

Wayne Gallman is the most productive 49ers RB

David Montgomery is again more productive than Miles Sanders (though only a mid RB2)

Philip Lindsay is the featured back in Houston and actually a pretty usable FLEX

Javian Hawkins shows some Darren Sproles esque versatility in Atlanta in a change of pace role

James Conner is the lead back in AZ and a pretty decent RB2 when healthy

Dalvin Cook is the overall RB1

What am I missing here? Everyone knows what a dumpster fire the Cowboys were after Prescott went down. Still, during the weeks he played Elliott was the #2 RB in fantasy. Then, he finished #9 overall, well ahead of Gibson. And he outscored Gibson 12 out of 17 weeks. This included the last 4 weeks so you can't even say that Gibson finished stronger. And yes I also go by the eyeball test and not just stats. Also, the O-line is returning 3 starters. Why do you think he's washed?

[gunzwil guinea pigs]

-Robert Woods is still undervalued and will be a top 15 PPR WR yet again (for the 4th time in a row)
-Jalen Hurts lands outside of the top 15 QB range and looses his job to the Nr. 2 overall draft pick in 2022
-Julio Jones has 11 total TDs for the first time in his carrer
-JuJu finishes as the best WR in Pittsburgh

This is you planting a flag, but I do not see eye to eye for a lot of these

This essentially

"Bounce backs" for 26 year old RBs on their second contracts after historic usage is something I laugh at people fooling themselves into believing in every year

He is not good in real life

A bunch of volume stats propping him up fantasy wise--like David Johnson being "a mid RB1" in 2018 (the year before he was totally finished) or Le'Veon Bell a "high RB2" his first year with the Jets--isn't fooling me

Sam Darnold and Mo-Alie Cox will finish in the top 10 at their positions.

[murphysxm]

Sam Darnold and Mo-Alie Cox will finish in the top 10 at their positions.

As a Colts fan, let me be the first to say the Cox prediction isn't bold, it's a tad cra cra. He's already falling behind the rookie and Doyle will start. Hope I am wrong though

Well, O'Doyle rules.

I'm not sure why Mo always has to put the Allie in between his name. I feel like he's missing his true calling on a duet with P. Diddy and Mase. Mo Money Mo...ahh nevermind.

I'll see myself out now.

You still get an A for Eifert.

Lots of Wentz hate so I'll plant my flag in opposition.

- Wentz finishes top 8 and looks more like his MVP caliber self.

- Hurts however ends up looking every bit of the negative parts of his scouting reports, and loses his job to whoever the Eagles draft.

- CEH finishes top 10.

- Newton starts the season for the Patriots but is out of a job by the mid point of the season.

- Lock beats out Bridgewater and puts up a QB2 type of season.
