He only missed 5 games in the last 4 years. He's got 39 TDS in the last 3 years. Yes, he had over 300 carries in the last 2 consecutive seasons. You know why? Bc he fricking durable. He's the one who's doing the punishing.

He's only 28 people.

Most carries in the nfl since 2011.

Has three consecutive seasons of 250+ carries. Lynch is a great talent, so he could buck the trend, but I would rather own Lacy or Ball instead.

I want to say td's are slightly variable, but he is a strong bet for double digit scores.

Maybe they give Russell more responsibility this year. I don't know. I don't own him in any league. In my two snakes, he still went before I picked and went like top 5 in both.

I don't get it either. I took him in the 3rd round for my 8 man league.

Most are expecting a regression and SEA to throw more. Doesn't mean he cannot be a good fantasy RB

I still think he finishes in the top-12 and a fine RB1 in any league. Especially if you're getting him in the 2nd or 3rd.

3rd round Jesus. I saw him go 4 and 5 in my leagues.

To me, that is an overpay. Obviously, I would still include him in the tier of elite fantasy players (I think have 17 this year), but I understand the likelihood to bust.

I picked 2nd and 3rd in my leagues. If I'd fallen past 5 I would have taken him in the 1st.

Because Christine Michael is the best 3rd string running back in the league.

I got him at 17. Picked Calvin Johnson as my first pick.

I'm still not sold on him, I may be wrong.
