Dude looks like he hasn’t lost a single step and is the same player that was being drafted in the second round just a couple years ago.

Now the offense looks more efficient, and you were able to get him in the 12th round or so.

He’s gonna ball all year.

I’ve got a waiver claim on him. Dropping Pacheco for him if I can grab him. Pacheco doesn’t appear to have it since coming back from his injury last season. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Hunt take over the RB1 role in that offense.

He was on waivers in dynasty and I didn’t bother to pick him up, kicking myself

Hmmm. If you're stacked at RB, and needy at WR, then maybe. But, in my league, there is an extreme shortage of viable RBs.

Keenan is still the 3rd option at WR for Herbert, and he's not going to get a TD every week.

I thought Pacheco looked good in preseason. The whole game for the Chiefs seemed to slip after Worthy went out. Missing Rice at the same time probably contributed to a limited game plan.

Dropping Pacheco after one meh game seems short-sighted to me.

I drafted him as my WR6. He may be moving to my WR3 if he has similar target share weeks going forward. He’s currently behind Zay Flowers, Deebo Samuel and Ju’uan Jennings, but that may change quickly.

As someone who has McHonkey in two leagues, I would say Allen looked like the first option in an offense that looks it could be a pass first offense.

You may be right. Keenan looked great, but so did all the receivers. Most times Herbert was hitting guys shockingly wide open.

My comment was really directed towards dropping Pacheco. RBs are at such a premium in our league, I can't imagine dropping him just yet.

As an owner who jumps on the week-one overreaction band wagon most years, I may not be the source of the most sage advice on the issue.

Also, this would really depend on my other options at RB and WR.

I agree 100%. I'm not dropping the lead back in a good offense for Allen. Especially considering they just lost Worthy for what looks like multiple games. They may lean on the run more now.

Both pacheco and Allen were on my bench this week. Allen won't be staying there, Pacheco likely will.

Nah Ladd will still be WR1 in the long run

We truly have no way of knowing this.

Quentin Johnston looked good too and had more fantasy points than Allen. If Allen is on waivers I’d for sure grab him. But as a Ladd owner in one league, I’m trying not to overreact to week 1.

Because he had 2 TDs which won't happen often (or at all) for the rest of the season. K. Allen out targeted Q. Johnson by almost 50%. K. Allen is the right pick up after McHonkey (sorry, but I liked that so much I had to reuse it).

I have Joe Burrow and McConkey, Kupp and Pearsall in 3/5 WR slots on a team.

My team name is Joe and the McHonkey’s.
