I think he's a locked and loaded RB1 until Langford comes back. Once Langford is back I think he's still a legit RB2 with RB1 upside.

The trade was Carr/Gore/Moncrief for Wentz/Howard/Sharpe

Looking at this trade and your team, I think this was just a fancy way of trading Carr/Gore/Moncrief for Howard. Sharpe is droppable and is at best your 5th WR right now. Wentz is essentially useless for you since you have Brees.

That being said, Carr was mostly useless for you as well, Howard is a big upgrade from Gore, and you have two good WRs already to start, so it wasn't a bad trade.

Tevin Coleman for TY Hilton 3 weeks ago

This was a great trade even if done today. Very surprised you were able to do this 3 weeks ago, so congrats on that one.

Howard has been playing at such an effective level since taking over. Fox was very publicly frustrated with Langford and his overall production going back to even last year.

At this point it is Howard's Job. Unless he starts missing holes, fumbling, and doing dumb things I expect them to feed him at least 20 times a game.

I love his draft profile and the way he is running and producing against NFL competition. Him and Hoyer are feeding off each other and the Chicago offense is somewhat thriving. The fact that Hoyer is playing so well IMO makes him more valuable than some of the 1st to 2nd round RB's that were taken in the draft.

I do not think he is matchup proof but I plan on playing him almost every single week.
