I’m the Barkley could finish RB1 guy. This is the first time he’s ever had a capable o-line on an above average offense. May see less goal line tush pushes without Kelce. This feels to me like when CMC went from the Panthers to the 49ers, the sky is the limit.

[childofkhem.]

Barkley mid to late round 2 is a smash and Pacheco is the best value in fantasy rn in round 3/4

[josephjuba]

Barkley will have a big year. Offensive lines are everything. Thats how i determine the rbs i draft and also volume and teams that should be playing with a lead means more running to drain clock

[daneaton]

Rams also told us Cam Akers was going to be very involved in their offense.

[dbarller]

London has definitely gotten the bump in adp this year with cousins

[francois]

if philly had cmc, would u say the same thing u say about barkley? i my opinion, barkley be a RB12 or better.

Do not watch any advice that thinks Saquan isn't one of your top fantasy backs this year. The numbers he put up just last year if you watched how terrible that New York offense was, that O line...I could see Barkley having his career year this season (barring injury). Dynasty he might be a little less impact. These guys aren't really saying don't pick Barkley I get that, but "risky" pick...everyone in the NFL is risky because you NEVER know. If you want to go for homerun swings, or get certain guys that will be solid, bigger chance of being healthy, then usually if you don't take the chance you end up mid pack, or maybe 3rd in your 14 man league. Just my experience. I'm taking Barkley somewhere in the 2nd round, if I'm getting the WR I really want in round 1. I just traded Kyren Williams for Saquan, and Kyren carried my team last year.

I won my Fanasty championship chosing Kyren and i heard so much good about a guy name Puka in camp. Took Puka too.Heard Corum will be used as a receiver too and has been impressive in camp . Rams did use 2 Rbs in the backfield before with Akers and Henderson .

[DJDonkeytron]

I don't remember Bijon tearing it up last year I remember the other back getting way too many touches...

[jlockz]

I just got Achane at the 5.6 in a dynasty superflex startup 🔥

[Joel_Aleman]

50:00 Kyler Murray had prime D Hop, Larry Fitzgerald (old but solid) and Christian Kirk. That's was so far his best WR core. But this can be the best if players live up to the hype

[jeffthevideoguy]

I have Bijan, Kyren, JT and Derrick. Which RB should I sit week 1?

[YouTalkSports]

This was great take on J Gibbs I like him in same category as Bijan & B Hall as a first round pick

[thomasdodson]

I also have Kincaid ans LaPorta in dynasty TE premium...what WR could i get for Kincaid?

[closequarters]

Can the Eagles pull off the tush push without Jason Kelce? That’s the difference of him going at the end of the first or end of the second.

[codybehr]

In my Dynasty, I have Gibbs, Achane, and Kyren! Also have 4 first for my rookie draft Saturday!!!

[mathewpeters]

Is kamara worth trading away to get Brooks?

[torstenburkhardt]

Kyler Murray had the best receiving corps years ago:

WR1 Hopkins
WR2 Fitzgerald
WR3 Christian Kirk

[MikeW_is_entertained]

I drafted Lawrence as my QB1 last year. Definitely noticed how many near misses he had. But most of them were his fault. If he learns to throw the balls a little bit better, he’ll be a top 5 QB easily. But it’s highly dependent on his own personal development.

[daniglesias]

Corum is better rounded RB then Kyren.
