Who are some of your sleepers/lottery tickets/handcuffs you are targeting in the later rounds? I have a few that could potentially end up starting.

Ryan Matthews, Cameron Artis-Payne, Duke Johnson, Montee Ball, David Johnson

Deep sleepers: Jay Ajayi, Roy Helu, Chris Polk and Jonas Gray

I like Abdullah but I think he's creeping up past sleeper in the rankings now.

Joique Bell sure as hell isn't going 1,200 yards rushing this season.

I don't know how well the new staff likes him given the fact that they drafted a rb in the 4th round.

Yes, especially with Stewart's track record for injury.

Duke Johnson
Feel like he will probably start sooner than later

If I don't end up with C.J. Anderson I will probably stash Hillman late over Ball. At least he proved he could perform, Ball is hot garbage.

Ryan Williams from Dallas has me intrigued.

I think I'd rather have Theo Riddick than Abdullah. Riddick has more potential to take over the role as primary back should Bell go down.

I see abdullah filling the RB role, so I value him more in a PPR.

Bell failed to ever impress me at all with his chances last year. Sorry LE.

Bell was always a sneaky PPR play and not much more. I'm not really on him this year., he's had some injuries

Duke Johnson is getting rave reviews in camp but I suspect Browns will frick it up, given that shite show committee last year.

Jay Ajayi is the most talented back Dolphins have. He will win that starting job if his knees hold up. Knees were the only thing keeping him from being a late first/early second round draft talent.

Bump

1 for 9?

Matthews - extremely obvious, has not produced
ArtisPayne - nope
Duke Johnson - outside of one game, nope
Montee Ball - wut?
David Johnson - could be considered a hit, we'll see how that continues to play out
Ajayi - no
Helu - no
Polk - not now, could be with Foster injury
Gray - definitely not

Other than keeper/dynasty value for the two Johnsons, I say 0 for 9

My buddies were at a bar in Madison on NFL Sunday earlier this month watching games and Montee Ball was there watching the Broncos.

How sad is that?

Props to Brodeur, though, on Theo Riddick. In PPR, he's a solid RB.
