[@davuhn2]

I feel Gibbs has every right to be in that first tier he’s a PPR beast

[@KFBALL247]

Monty gets most the goal line work. Gibbs had some dud games.

[@williamlarese3010]

I love Gibbs! Dude is electric!! Especially going into his second year, BUT they play Montgomery wayyy too much. He started every game he wasn’t injured last year and got a lot of the early season goal line work. He’ll still have a huge roll! More than those other rbs rb2’s anyway. Takes too much away from him.

[@spencer8860]

I've been hammering RBs round 1-2. Those round two receivers are just such a flat tier, I can't rationalize taking MHJ, Aiyuk, London over JT, Saquon, and even Kyren.

[@Willburrrrr]

Agreed, I had Kyren JT and Saquon which won me the chip

[@KFBALL247]

Barkley has a chance to be the RB1 or 2 next year. You could have drove a truck through the holes Swift was running through last season. It will all come down to his receiving usage. And injuries.

[@Nutssofast]

Can you guys do a show on what the top rosters of best ball last year won ie what was the 1.5 mil winner

[@MichaelHawkins-yd6ge]

Grand prize was 3 mil last year i think they adjusted prize pools so not so top heavy

[@paulgraves4605]

people who had Raheem Mostert and Josh Allen did pretty well and some backup qb's late in their drafts when other guys got hurt.

[@darrenhill3514]

I'm hoping to be able to go top 5 WR in the first round then RB rounds 2-4, then will start snagging a couple other receivers and go from there. I was lucky to be able to get Bijan in the 1st round then Amon-Ra in the 2nd round and that's not going to happen again this year lol

[@JerryCardigan]

Why exactly is there no way for Javonte Williams to finish as an rb1 …? Likely? Maybe not. But at all? I can’t buy that, especially at a 100ish adp and 2 years removed from his injury. Great dart throw imo

[@adamclevenger5562]

Denver won't score enough for him to be a rb 1 imo

[@JerryCardigan]

@@adamclevenger5562right that’s why I said likely not. However, Sean Payton can not afford to put another bad offense out there, Nix strengths are near the line of scrimmage and Javonte has 3 down ability + stronger knee. Sean Payton is gonna try like hell to make the offense work and Javonte is better positioned to take advantage of that. For a round 7/8 pick I think it’s a really good bet to make.

[@williamlarese3010]

I agree great dart throw to finish well above adp but that’s it.

[@quietstorm5293]

I love spears man but you guys are right I should settle down

[@timcloe]

Agree with Jacobs. Ge could easily get more points than 2/3 of your S class guys even. He can catch, run and will handle the goal line on a team where the QB doesn't steal them. Green bay likes to feed RBs too. One of those teams I like having fantasy RBs on. Subscribed! Great video

[@tylerrodriguez9233]

The packers will give Dillon just enough work to piss you off all year as a Jacobs owner

[@andrewmurphy6689]

I’m old enough to remember you guys shorting Gibbs because of his weight last draft cycle. Now you’re eating crow in the bed you made, but not enough to have him in tier 1 (big fan)

[@masontapp1607]

[@andrewbracht7939]

Swift at RB27?!? Tier 5? Behind Jones and Brooks and Edwards? C’mon. And Javonte at RB32 in Tier 6 with all those fliers?! No.

[@ssx3godlevelrunner]

i feel like the josh jacobs take is an odd one... with how much we talk about RBs falling off fast, wasn't his year last year significantly worse than the one good year? And when you say the raiders was a bad environment for him i feel like thats just not true.. he always completely dominated touches when healthy and they ran it at the goal line with him when the were able to get there. And he's a player that has been reliant on heavy and consistent volume, which LV has given him. Obviously you're correct in that that Oakland was a mediocre offense in general, but yeah. And i totally get it that being the packers RB1 is definitely a very valuable and potentially lucrative position to be in if he hasn't fallen off yet. My only harps are more that if there's any RB to just fall off and be meh or injured this year i feel like it could be him. Also, correct me if i'm wrong but the packers usually have been a team that isn't afraid of the1A 1B approach with splitting up the backfield, and we need to see what we hear about Lloyd. Tell me if I'm incorrect but I thought i heard jacobs was a lot less of an efficient rusher last year.. which if he's not efficient, and the scenerio happens where he doesn't dominate the touches, he could be in yikes territory

[@Matt-og6qv]

Agreed brother. Also other than his league leading rushing year he has been mediocre his whole career other than that one year

[@gregorypontasch1385]

When it comes to handcuffs that could have a week to week cooperative role, what do we think about Charbonnet??

[@VaperWare]

Can you play best ball in Maine? It’s gold but I know players that say it was removed this year. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@CookDaddy29]

I get to keep Breece Hall & would like to get 2 from the C-D tier. Those 2 tiers seem important!

[@carlv7227]

My two cents........Kyren a tier lower and Etienne a tier higher just behind Jacobs. Probably swap their rankings. Great content keep it coming.

[@patwalsh1045]

tiers 2-3 will bust your team unless you get lucky and pick the right guy and he has a great season but you are having to pass on some of the best wrs in order to take those guys. draft 5 or 6 good wrs early and just scoop up the bargain bin rbs they are just as likely to stay healthy as the top 1-3 tiers, and if one hits for you youve got a great rb and loaded wrs

[@LO131713]

Josh Jacobs is too high. Every interview with LaFleur has him mention the importance of using multiple backs. I don't think Jacobs will have the volume to be top 5.

Yeah just not happening. Pollard is going to start. May just rest for spears. But that's pollards spot

[@mustyantel0pe]

@@GardenHood lol Spears isn't going to "just rest." You're not even paying attention to what these two players did last year and if Pollard is poopy pants like he was last season as a first round pick, then Tyjae will get more run. You need to listen to what the head coach said on having those two in his backfield.

Why is Kamara so low? Guy would have been the 3rd best RB statistically if he played all the games but was suspended the first 4. He catches the ball out of the backfield a lot too

[@silverknight876]

Because it was ALL off of his receptions. He was terrible as a runner last season and would’ve been even worse had Kendre Miller not been hurt most of the season. Kamara’s workload is going to drop off this season because they’re going to try and see what they have in Kendre Miller assuming he stays healthy

James cook is too low imo. We know the bills want to run more and they lost Diggs. I can see Cook getting more passing game usage as the bills try to change their offense to a less explosive pass offense in exchange for a steadier passing game for Josh since you’d be asking Keon to be a high level X right away. Cook was top 3 in rushing yards last year I’m pretty sure too. Low A Tier RB imo

How many games has dobbins played the last 2 years? Dobbins has talent, but has never stayed healthy, and the best trait is availability. If he can’t stay healthy, he can’t be higher ranked than Gus. Edwards had more TDs last year, than dobbins had carries
