I would take a chance with Hillman. You could be sitting on a gold mine.

VIkes just said they are going to up Asiata's touches... its on Roto. Me thinks this points to maybe not liking/trusting something in McKinnon as lead back... just a thought.

I took a flier on HIllman. I think he's the guy until he screws up.

McKinnon has a higher floor and could very well be a rb2 or flex at worst. I think he sees no less than half the touches.

Hillman is swinging for the fences. He is a Peyton Manning rb. It all depends on what happens when Montee Ball returns. If Hillman plays good at shite and keeps the role or Ball is out for at least a month (expected 2-3 more weeks), then you can have a high end RB1. We have seen how Moreno was a stud last year and how Peyton made Joseph Addai a first round fantasy pick.

I honestly think that Ball doesnt regain starting job upon return... if he does, ill come back and apologize for being a dumbass...

Broncos are most likely to be a committee and soon

Jon fox has a history of the rbbc, he actually was a trend starter in this regard

I don't think he does either. He wasn't doing to great before the injury. If Hillman doesn't get a case of the fumbles and he is an adequate pass blocker, he's the guy from here on out. Can't ask for much better off the waiver wire at this point in the season, especially if you're in a deeper league.

he may not, but if not Ball, its going to be Juwan Thompson. He's looked good. Hillman isnt fit to carry the load.


Id take McKinnon ROS.

He just had 24 carries for 100 yds against a stout Jets d line. It's not a coincidence that Ball went out and they gave the majority to Hillman.

CJ Anderson played 1 offensive snap last week.

Thompson 17

Hillman played 52

Through weeks 1-3, CJA looked like the best back. They've said they'd roll with the hot hand, and fox has a history of doing that

Spill man won't keep it up for very long

Just my take from watching a few games, CJA is the best back there

Regardless, I'm not touching that situation and McKinnon will be or already is a starter and after buffalo has some great matchups

Hillman came out early in the game with some nice runs. Hit one for 12, one for 10, then another one for 12.

I think it was more he ended up being the hot hand. Not sure that workload was planned.

Plus he has fumbling issues, 1 fumble and it may be the end of that.

Anderson has played 24 snaps all year.

Thompson 27. But he has gotten more carries lately. Anderson was a healthy inactive a few weeks ago. Thompson has passed him.

Hillman IMO. The Broncos D will keep running lanes open.

Who knows if Bridgewater will pan out with his spotty o-line?

I owned ball and every time anderson got it, I started thinking he'd take the job regardless

It's a tough situation to predict. In all likelihood it will be the ultimate rbbc soon

I just remember hearing Peyton raving about Hilman the minute Ball went out with his appendix. Hillman is the back.
