These have just been mocks. I'll find out tomorrow in my high stakes live draft.

I may aim to get him in the 6th. It's a keeper league, I think getting him 5th rd next year will be a huge steal.

TY went 5th round in my league, waaay to early imo, but who knows?

Also, I took Ray Rice at #11 and was very close to going Morris or McCoy. Those 2 went in order after I took Rice which was a solid play by the #12 guy.

I hope I don't regret passing either one, but I like Rice.

So getting back to Morris here, is anyone worried about Helu stealing a good portion of his carries? Helu was just on the field for all the redone plays on their 2nd drive. I know, I know it's the preseason, but just a thought.

I know it's stupid but Shanahan scares the shite out of me. I'd still take Morris as my 10th ranked rb though.

I like Morris in a standard league, but a lot less in PPR. In PPR, give me bush/Sproles/Sjax/forte/MJD over Morris.
morris went 10th overall in our pelicans talk ppr league

I got Morris and Megatron with 10th and 11th picks in a standard league and feel like I stole both. Got Graham and MJD at 30-31 also. Love my team

You don't think Morris disappoints this season?

Of any of the top backs I think he has the most bust potential

I concur, add that to the fact he doesn't do much catching

To drop him to the 20th or 24th spot in a draft? Not that much of a drop off in production.

I could end up being entirely wrong but it's just my opinion .

I kept him in one league and have him in TDFL, so I'm invested, but I like him better than other pass catching backs in ppr that are going in the second round like SJax and Chris Johnson.

I would personally much rather Trent than AM in PPR.
