Something told me to put in Melvin Gordon for him last week since I knew they were going to be easing him back and he wouldn’t get more than 15 carries but I told myself I was over thinking it. Gordon scored 19 and Barkley 3 and it cost me the win

Barkley will be on a short week and on the road this week and I don’t expect him to be any better. I understand Gordon’s 19 was probably a fluke and he’s splitting carries with Javonte but I also have Jamaal Williams who scored 19 as well and Ronald Jones on my bench who arians just announced would start this week. Am I crazy to bench Saquon for any of these 3?

I only have him in a dynasty

Starting Aaron Jones and Josh Jacobs

99% of people don’t have that luxury in redraft. I think you have to start him unless you have a seriously good alternative

I started him last week unfortunately and I have him on the bench currently. He'll probably stay there unless reports come out that they're going to give him a full or near-full workload tomorrow night which I doubt.

Week 3 is going to be shite or get off the pot with Saquon for me. If they rest him or limit him tomorrow and he's still not healthy after 10 days rest for week 3 I'm looking for alternatives.
