I have demarco and his injury bothers me... is d Henry worth trading for? What sort of value do y’all think he carries?

10 man PPR

Thinking about it; I would have to drop Ameer Abdullah or Doug Martin to pull the trigger though.

That's 5.0 yards per carry.

He's fantasy relevant.

Let me ask you something.

Do you EVER make a prediction or just stay safe with your pansy arse statements like, "Ameer Abdullah isn't a thing?"

Monday night was tailor made for a running back to grind the clock and Riddick was still in the game late. If Abdullah couldn't go for 100 and a td on Monday, he's not going to be very valuable the rest of the season IMO.

I have him on my bench. If Murray doesn't play Sunday, I'm putting Henry in

Fellas, fellas can we stay on track please???

Back to Henry... is it a bad idea to have him on my team if I also have Demarco? My other RBs - Bernard, T west, crowell

So, you would drop him for Derrick Henry?

I'm asking because I'm kind of on the fence. And D Henry is available on my ww although I pick 11th.

TIA

No. It's called a handcuff and people do it all the time.

Henry is Murray's handcuff and probably the most important handcuff in fantasy. You need Henry if you have Murray.

Detroit hasn't had a 100 yard rusher in 54 games

Their RBs have the lowest rush TD total over the last few years

Abdullah has had over 15 carries 3 times in his career

86 yards is the most rush yards he's had

Doesn't catch passes

Doesn't score TDs

Detroit averages 600+ pass attempts over the pass three years

Ameer Abdullah isn't a thing

I'll repost from another thread, but this is a grown arse man. He hasn't had a carry this year that's gone for negative yardage.

Here we see Jalen Ramsey making a valiant effort

And here we see Jalen Ramsey making a business decision


Here we see grown men getting tossed aside


Here we see a 315 pounder getting tossed aside


And here we see Jack Conklin blocking the hole, so he gets moved too

Honestly, I don't know the injury info on Murray. But, if Henry is gonna get carried and you need a win this week and need a quality rb to get one, I think Henry is better than Abdullah if they get anywhere near comparable touches.

Murray will be in the squad sunday but I'll be shocked if he out carries Henry. The titans fas are clamoring for a switch, Henry has vastly outperformed DM over the last 7 games ad it isn't even close...but Mularkey is loyal to vets to a fault

I answered your question. Probably twice in this thread.

Settle down, Nancy!

So, ROS, you have Henry?

It's a semi best ball total point league. So, i would carry Henry as one of my ONLY 3 RBs.

No need to start anyone either. 2 highest score weekly and count toward year total. Each team can only carry 3 which is why DH is out there to begin with.

Handcuffs don't carry much value in BB.
