Q & A
Who does the speaker recommend as the first 'buy' at the running back position?
-The first 'buy' at the running back position recommended is Zamir White of the Las Vegas Raiders.
What was the reason for optimism regarding Zamir White's performance in week two?
-The reason for optimism regarding Zamir White's performance in week two was a significant increase in workload, with over 60% of the snaps, over 50% of the team rushing attempts, and 53% of the team targets.
What does the speaker suggest about potentially trading a wide receiver for Zamir White?
-The speaker suggests that if you drafted a zero running back team and have a wide receiver like Khil Shakir sitting on your bench, you could trade them for a guy like Zamir White to increase your running back touches.
Who is the expensive 'buy' at the running back position mentioned in the script?
-The expensive 'buy' at the running back position mentioned is Jonathan Taylor.
Why is Jonathan Taylor considered a good 'buy' despite the Colts' negative game script?
-Jonathan Taylor is considered a good 'buy' because he had 95% of the snaps in week one and is expected to have more red zone opportunities as the Colts' offense improves with the return of Michael Pittman Jr. and better play from Anthony Richardson.
What is the speaker's opinion on the Carolina Panthers' offense?
-The speaker is quietly optimistic about the Panthers' offense, noting that the offensive line has performed better than expected and that Andy Dalton could provide stability at the quarterback position.
Who is the gritty 'buy' suggested for the running back position and why?
-The gritty 'buy' suggested is Jonathan Brooks of the Carolina Panthers. The reason is that despite the team's poor start, the speaker believes in Brooks' potential as an rb2 level appeal once he returns from injury and the offense stabilizes.
What is the speaker's stance on trading for Travis Etienne?
-The speaker believes Travis Etienne is a good buy because he averages good PPR points and the Jaguars' offense is expected to improve, especially with the potential for more passing plays which could increase Etienne's receiving workload.
Why is Alvin Kamara considered a 'sell high' candidate according to the speaker?
-Alvin Kamara is considered a 'sell high' candidate because he is currently performing exceptionally well, but the speaker believes the Saints' offense, and by extension Kamara's production, is overperforming and due for regression.
What is the advice given regarding JK Dobbins' current market value?
-The advice given is to sell JK Dobbins if his market value is that of a top-five running back because his current usage does not match that of other top-five running backs, and any potential negative incident could significantly devalue him.
