Ricky Seals-Jones, you buyin'?

I have started Hunt every week possible up to this point. I agree he's going to bust loose at some point (he should with the fantasy playoff schedule he has) and my decision has nothing to do with Hunt as a player, but his situation has changed dramatically. He hasn't topped 50 rushing yards in four of his last five games and we aren't talking about a host of tough run defenses over that time. He's carried the ball 20 times over the last two weeks combined. It's the lack of commitment to him along with the fact West steals too many passing-down snaps from him now.

 

Granted, I wouldn't be making this move if I didn't feel so great about RSJ the rest of the way. The Titans have been getting gouged by TEs lately and RSJ isn't exactly a normal tight end. (He was running routes against Trumaine Johnson out wide last week and creating separation. It just feels odd to roll with him over a player I know should be getting more love but isn't. It's been a long time since I've been this torn about a lineup decision.

I've been considering this but Hogan over Hunt.

I'm going with RSJ as my plug-in for Ertz today.

Usually when an up-and-comer like Seals-Jones has a downward blip in production (hard not to without a TD in his 3rd game), you'll see him show up heavy on the drops side of the Adds/Drops the following week. But in RSJ's case, his numbers have been heavily tilted towards the Adds side every day this week since the WW has been opened for FA transactions. It may be a sign that folks are still seeing something special in him ...or could also be a reflection of TE woes elsewhere in FF land

Lean to the later....now that there is film on the guy I am curious to see if his drop last week was who he really is or not. Fwiw I'm facing him.
