7 Running Backs You Need to Trade for BEFORE Week 2 (Fantasy Football)

You don't know a thing. Stop acting like you know more. There's 5000 fake fantasy gurus that just rinse and repeat the same info..

[@MrCjalex1]

I do not understand the Jaylen Warren love. He is in a RBBC. A lot of experts faded Rhamondre even after the contract he got. Now it looks like NE is committed to the run. Buy Rhamondre!

[@svendragon8139]

Everyone avoided him in my league, so I scooped him in round 10 and decided to drop him after week 1...for Jordan Mason

[@richardsanchez5267]

Not only is this video fire 🔥 but your haircut is fresh!! Keep up the good work Sal!

[@philstill2244]

Sal, my dude. I've been watching and winning since you were under 10k subscribers. I took Mason in the 13th rd and Mitchell in the 14th. Great advice. Keep up the great work!

[@ruffles2967]

The way I see it, Zack Moss is only there for 2 years. Bengals are going to make sure they get their 8,000,000 dollars worth out of him. Chase Brown is on a rookie contract and the way the RB market is, the Bengals would feel better about giving Chase a big contract in 2 years if they are able to conserve his health and develop him as much as they can before resigning and letting him loose. Kinda like Raheem Mostert. It'd make sense for teams to want their RBs peaking during a legit NFL contract and not during their rookie contract like 99% of RBs do today. Moss is in his prime and Bengals don't need Chase Brown to win games, so why not wear out the temporary RB instead of the long term one. That's probably why the Bengals signed Moss anyway. It's why I'm sticking to Moss over Brown. 8 mil for a backup RB would be a bad investment

[@CookDaddy29]

I'm Bengals fan, they will play who ever they similar gives them best chance to win & I expect both of them to get banged up & Trevion Williams to be a rostered player if on gets injured & he hasn't proven to beable to stay healthy either that's what I'm worried about as a fan. I think both are bench players for now.

[@stevencamp69]

People forget the Titans managed Henry’s carries his first two years and then unleashed the beast his 3rd season

[@Deci.]

​@@stevencamp69 yeah they didn't manage shit, they just didn't know how they had a lambo in the garage

[@kalybcarter6721]

Ya'll gotta stop with the Chase Brown hype man.. he just isn't good. Moss is simply the better back.

[@eduardogalvaorj]

The field in Brazil wasnt shitty, the players themselves said that they just had the wrong type of cleats on to start the game, when they changed them it was all fine (as you could see with barely any slipping in the second half)

[@kopes28]

Had Brandon Aiyuk, Kincaid, Tank Dell, and CMC..... Had no one to replace him with for the last game of the week so that was 1 RB position wasted. So those 4 and my kicker combined I had 16.8 pts. Lamar Jackson, Mike Evans, and Travis Etienne were my only ones that had double digits points. Was a bad week in all 3 of my leagues.

[@jackdanielo4941]

Rough!!!

[@roberthess2015]

You got a whole season bro! You got this

[@drsev61]

I had Kincaid, I was shocked with his lack of attention from Allen. Luckily my opponent had CMC. I pulled off the win, but it was close.

[@astralmindny9055]

Lol!! It'll get better. I put up 175, 154, 144, and 141 in my 4 paid lead

[@Therealyaygrr]

Why would you get Josh Jacob’s if they don’t have a pass game to balance ?

[@TonySopranosDuck1]

Zach moss - good usage/majority of the usage in a game they were basically losing the whole time. Chase brown, even when they were trailing wasnt out there. Moss should get more usage in winning enviornments and redzone

[@5280OutdoorsCO]

Was able to pick up Baker Mayfield, Jk Dobbins, and Jordan Mason from the waiver wire 🔥Had to drop Caleb Williams and Joe Burrow, but with CJ Stroud as my starter and Baker Mayfield as my #2 I feel like this was a great decision.

[@antwontennis5751]

Those are good pickups. I’m just confused why you had 4 QBs on your roster. Superflex I’m assuming?

[@5280OutdoorsCO]

😂 I'm a Bengals fan, I have Chase Brown. I'm worried both will get injured & Trevion will be carrying the load by end off season at least be splitting work with 1 of them.

[@kevingipson5356]

Chase is droppable.

[@MetalGear69]

​@CookDaddy29 yeah I'm a bengals fan and I never draft benfals running backs. Their run game is always so inconsistent. Also, Zack Taylor never used Joe Mixon correctly, imo.

[@78town]

Week 1 makes me higher on Corum, because that's a lottttt of work for Kyren who has been known for injuries.

[@oOLiLXaNOo]

Corum is returning kicks. So now what?

[@bobchob7950]

@@Whynotntn no. no one drafted corum for his early season role. he's a rookie in his first game, and coachs like McVay, McDaniels, Shanahan, etc almost always opt for the more experienced guy early in the season, especially in a big game against Detroit. Corum will take rivers's roll by week 5

[@raiderswish]

Agreed on jalen warren. He's got great value pick in ppr, but know when to start him....

[@obix1632]

how do you always have a fresh fade? do you cut it yourself ?

[@jakemcdonald589]

I dropped chase brown for JK Dobbins. Dobbins already has an established role in his offense with way better environment and offense line.

[@Brizbayn]

I am looking at cutting Hollywood. I have McBride and Ferguson was cut. I only have one tight end. I have Anthony Richardson and no backup QB. Mayfield is available and I have Mike Evans. Jaylen Wright is also available. My backs are Walker, Robinson jr., Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Jaylen Warren. Jonathan brooks on the IR. I have lamb, Harrison jr., evans, Ridley, Moore, mclaurin. I also look at Lazard out there too. Not sure if he is fools gold. What would your move be?

[@franklinphillips8059]

[@briandibble2234]

Just wondering if I could ask a quick question.... Do u trust J Reed this week with the new QB or should I start lazard in his place

[@VeHe-k4n]

I got 4 of 7 * In 10man league Henry 2nd Rd, Conner 8th Rd, Warren & Brooks (Both wk1 Waviers)

[@mokane86]

Henry looked good when he lowered his shoulders and burst through the line 5 yards airborn. He looked open with room on his pass plays which his timing was slightly off on to secure the catch. Besides being in trailing gamescript; he was probably most indirectly hurt by the EIGHT bs “alignment” penalties dropping yards and downs. Plus like you said line can almost only improve. With mostly softer defenses. Not worried. But I did just drop Blake Corum for Justice Hill.

[@joshs2733]

Hey guys; Would you replace DJ Moore with either Tanke Dell or Jameson Williams? Thanks

[@paulgraves4605]

You are a good egg Sal. I wonder how you feel about feel about Singletary after week 1? I believe you had him on a must add to win your fantasy leagues. I don't need him and no one in my league currently has him rostered.

[@mo_ahmed18]

So tough, jones is gonna be really good, and as a packer fan i love him and think KOC is gonna maximize his talent. Tough thing is that he faces niners defense, but KOC could draw up plays that can get jones involved and producing despite the defense, but still it is a too defense, so its such a tough choice. How u got mixon gibbs reek AND kupp, wow good for u

[@CentralMood]

I would start JK Dobbins, safer floor against the Panthers

[@luisgalvez4303]

I'd just rather have Bucky Irving or Tank Bigsby over Chase Brown. He lost marginally in every split possible to Moss giving us absolutely nothing positive to take away from drafting him. Moss is consistent, and for whatever reason I was hoping a new offense would stifle his progression to seeing more opportunities early but he's already running away with it. Getting topped in every game metric by your positional competition is honestly worse news for Brown than if he got injured.
