Deep, Deep Sleepers?

Fixed it

You’re probably right. A guy who was a state champion in 110 hurdles, long jump, and triple jump (and javelin) isn’t going to have a good athletic profile. After all, 40 times are strongly correlated to NFL success, right?

But then again that state was Rhode Island (we kid !!! )

In the Sleeper-App I see, that Mekhi Sargent is trending up. Honestly I have never heard of him but is there anything to see?
In my 16 Teams/40 Roster-League it's hard to get to any RB soooo... is there potential? BackUp to Henry? Or just temporarily because of Covid/Injury?

I think, for right now, he is the back-up to Henry. He has seemed to pass Evans for that. If Henry is ever out, he will probably split touches with Evans or another back. Sargent is a competent back that can catch and runs hard. Not lightning fast or overly strong, but a very solid back that showed well this pre-season. He actually wasn't the main back at Iowa when he was there, but able to take a lot of carries when he needed to.

I don’t think he passed Evans as the backup to Henry, but Sargent is healthy right now. Evans is out at least 3 weeks on IR to start the year.

[RheinlandChief]

hm okay, thank you.
so I don't think, a pick up will be helpful right now. Longterm I don't see any value. But I will put him on my watchlist.

[Pullo Vision]

Brian Hill getting cut and Darrynton Evans going to IR makes Mekhi Sargent a watch target, for me. In deeper RB heavy leagues, can definitely see adding him.

In related Tennessee angles, if you're not sold on Firkser, they signed Mycole Pruitt to their practice squad. Always saw him as a good receiving TE prospect, though it's probably unrealistic to expect further development at 29.

If you believe Julio will continue to be injured, what WR(s) are you targeting? Marcus Johnson, Josh Reynolds, Chester Rogers or someone else?

In a league that deep he is a no brainer add. I have him in a 12 team league with smaller rosters than that

[RheinlandChief]

yeah, as I was thinking who to drop for him another guy picked him up

Well, at least I have Tony Jones and hope, that he is going to be the guy behind Kamara...

Ty'son Williams gets a nice bump post-Hill injury.

Yep that's a good one.

Some TEs to look at with injuries and players getting traded:

Jarwin, Blake DAL TE
Arnold, Dan CAR TE
Everett, Gerald LAR TE
Herndon, Chris NYJ TE
Conklin, Tyler MIN TE
Kroft, Tyler BUF TE

Gerald Everett plays for the Seahawks.
And Chris Herndon is a Viking.
Also, Tyler Kroft is on the Jets.

LOL sorry that's what I get for grabbing this off of old stats. My bad.

This is a really good call!

Personally I don't see much of a bump. Mostly because Tyson was already the #2 back and also because he won't take over pass catching duties, unless he's hiding some pass catching ability I don't know about.

I wasn't even sure they'd be using Hill as a pass catching back, he was mostly going to be ST

Have to think Lev Bell is going to be the third down back at some point. He's probably still a good pass blocker, and receiver, even if he's not the same explosive player he used to be.
