Who are you taking in a full point PPR league, if you can just pick one?

I'm actually leaning towards Crowell.

I lean slightly to Miller. Crowell is a solid choice too, but the Browns are such a dumpster fire it makes me a little nervous.

I'm guessing this means you'll be picking somewhere around 30? If that's the case you may even see Montgomery come back around to you in the next round. Maybe.

Keeper league, 2 keepers, picking 12th, so essentially yes.

They are all in the same tier

Miller: should get most usage

Crowell: 200 carries + goaline + fewer targets than last year imo

Montgomery: most upside as he could catch a ton of balls

Lynch: not really interested in owning tbh

Didn't Miller suck last year?

I'm scared of Ty Mont because all I hear from GB is that he may not even start.

No chance I'm picking Lynch.

he didnt live up to his draft position, but was one of 12 RBs to hit 1k yards and he missed 2 games. QB play was putrid and should improve this year.

Crowell and Miller are just guys I won't be owning this year, marginal talents with too high of a price. The nicest thing you can say about them is that they're getting carries. Best case is you're drafting both of those guys at their ceiling

if I had to pick between the two, I'd go crowell

I would love to have McCaffery available there, but we have a guy in our league that almost only picks white skill players, so he will be picked in like the top 5.

A lot of Crowell value last year was from pass catching and i just dont think he see that same volume. However he averaged 4.8 YPC with a terrible passing game. Their OL is improved. I think you're short changing him.


Miller, had he played 16 games, was on a 1220 pace rushing which would have been right below where David Johnson finished. I think he can catch more balls too. I dont think he is marginal at all.

Pretty much every fantasy place is like "Hey Lamar Miller is total garbage" and then have him ranked in the top 25 RBs.

Wel he's one of the few RBs not in a timeshare. He's a solid enough RB2 w/ slight upside just based on that. That offense shouldn't be that bad this season

I think that is more a product of poor passing game.

If you go back to 2014 in Miami he was the 3rd graded RB in the NFL that year.


He has been quoted this offseason as saying he wasnt comfortable with the blocking schemes last year, but is much more comfortable now.
