Don't think this really helps his value, time share plus Blount Dr. will get goal line carries

No way

Blount is deemed useless, IMO

Ajayi will be the workhorse in that offense

one of the biggest myths of the year is that he's been terrible.

his o line is bottom 3, he hasn't had a chance to do anything. he gets contact behind scrimmage on like 98% of runs.

Seriously?? Lol....I'm trying to trade Fuller for Ajayi as I type. This trade boosts him BIG time.

I have Julio, Cooper, Parker, Funchess, and Fuller as of now. Haven't had Fuller in my lineup to this point. Don't like his playoff schedule at all, which is my main reason for trying to trade him high. I, personally, don't think this TD streak keeps up for much longer.

LF7 and D. Martin are my only 2 legit RB's as of right now.

Dating back to start of 2016, there are just 3 instances of an #Eagles RB playing 60+ percent of snaps in a single game. All were Sproles.


quote:

The max amount of touches an #Eagles RB has received under Doug Pederson (24 games) is 22. Just four instances of a RB getting 20+ touches.


quote:

While Pederson favors RBBCs, PHI is in top-half in carries inside-ten (RZ) with 13. MIA is last (4). Big potential boost for Ajayi there.


quote:

Volume-wise, this is no where near a boost for Ajayi. Trade is about scheme versatility as @FG_Dolan notes. LT a bigger need without Peters.


quote:

LeGarrette Blount is averaging 4.7 YPC this season, including an NFL-best 2.9 after initial contact (min. 80 carries) #Eagles


quote:

Only 14% of the Eagles targets have been directed at running backs this season - the league's 4th-lowest mark



quote:

Eagles are not moving Blount from what I gather. He'll have a role there even after this trade



This is a passing team w other RBs playing different roles. Will be interesting to watch

Drake or Williams, with I think Drake being the lead for early down work if I'm looking at it right.
