I don’t know what to do as far as start/sit him, his trade value, etc. I don’t get how the Cardinals are using him. He’s had a couple TD’s vultured by Murray and they refuse to throw him the ball. Yesterday, they have the ball on the 1, first and goal and they do a HB toss out of shotgun which proceeds to lose 5 yards. Frustrating as hell. Luckily I have RB depth with Mixon, Conner, Robinson, and Gibson so I will at the very least sit him until he proves he can eclipse 12 points.

What is his current trade value?

Right now, he's a HOLD.

RBs are dying out there, so maybe you can find someone who needs one badly otherwise you won't get a lot in return.

From FantasyPros...

Player to Hold


Kenyan Drake  (RB - ARI)
It's ugly, there's no question about it. However, this is the classic "do not go overboard" mode. He's still totaled over 70 percent of the running back touches in the Cardinals backfield. Kyler Murray having three touchdowns while Drake has none is flip-flopped from how things were last year. Things are bound to even out. Remember Joe Mixon and how much his owners were panicking last week? Well, he's once again in their good graces. We must dial back expectations for Drake into the low-end RB2 range, but he's still a starter in fantasy.

Chase Edmonds vs. Kenyan Drake 2020 is an add now, ask questions later proposition.

All Drake owners should already own Edmonds.

I dropped Edmonds this past week for MVS since I have D Adams (who’s a no go tonight).

Should I waste my #1 WW position and pick him back up. Besides Kamara my RB’s are very bad.

he turned back into a pumpkin, his snap share is the best thing you can say about him...but if he's not getting the valuable touches (RZ, passing work) then who gives a frick?

not saying you cut bait on him but I'd be looking at moving him while people still think the name is good

Edmonds looks good to me, 17 targets so far and he’s hardly playing

I'm at the point where I'm just rooting for Drake to suck bad enough that they bench him and name Edmonds the starter. He looks better and I'm itching to play him over Drake

I need you to be right. And I need this train to pick up steam this week.

If you're like me and own both Drake/Edmonds then a small part of you is hoping Drake gets injured and you can start rolling out Edmonds with confidence.
