RedzoneMonster 102 Posted September 21, 2017 What do you all think Allen's outlook rest of the way is? Even when West is back 100% do you think Allen gets enough work to retain at least RB2 value rest of the way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted September 21, 2017 He could. Better all around RB. BMore won't play Cleveland every week though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobSanders_33 127 Posted September 21, 2017 RB2 is reasonable given the volume he can get. It also wouldn't be surprising if he got moth balled once Woodhead comes back. I might try to trade him when he is near peak value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted September 21, 2017 Wow tough question. I'm not so sure if I can trust him being a rb2. But I guess if he keeps the job he could be. I'm guessing more of a rb3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WR Guru 31 Posted September 22, 2017 Can't trust him for anything more than a flex Woodhead will be back, Collins looks solid, West has been steady West is barely average and already dinged up. Woodhead is a situational player and already dinged up. Allen has a very good opportunity here to become a weekly 15-20 touch guy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderHaters Revenge 3,579 Posted September 22, 2017 West is barely average and already dinged up. Woodhead is a situational player and already dinged up. Allen has a very good opportunity here to become a weekly 15-20 touch guy. you must be an Allen owner Allen has had 3 years to separate himself and become the guy. They didn't like him so much, they signed Woodhead to fill the best role Allen could do West had 4.3 ypc last year as a 1000 yard rusher, and is their 1st and 2nd down guy. Allen is averaging 3.8 YPC for his career. Allen is a solid fantasy guy right now, but lets not get carried away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WR Guru 31 Posted September 22, 2017 West had 4.3 ypc last year as a 1000 yard rusher, and is their 1st and 2nd down guy. In what league did T.West have 1,000 / 4.3 rushing last year, the California Penal League? Because it wasn't the NFL. Point is, there is nothing special - and now nothing healthy - ahead of Allen on the depth chart. It's all about opportunity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xxxdog 23 Posted September 23, 2017 Collins is the speculative Add at this point imho Agree....I think the most talented of the 3-backs,runs very physical {3-yr college avg.5.3 yds. per carry} it helps Harbaugh thinks highly of what he has seen so far in game action......My guess, mid-Oct. he will be the starter.....

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted September 24, 2017 Collins is ok. Looked terrible in the preseason and early in the year in Seattle. Played much better end of season. I like Allen the best out of all Ravens backs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flgatorguy87 160 Posted September 24, 2017 I like Allen. He's a good pass catcher and suitable between the tackles. Truthfully the former is the most important part for that offense because of Flacco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the s is ilent 69 Posted September 24, 2017 What happens when Dixon comes back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 589 Posted September 24, 2017 honestly the backfield in Baltimore is a mess. the only guy I wouldnt worry about is Woodhead. hes an injury prone scat back who is too old. not many players are productive on the wrong side of the age of 30 and Last I checked, Woodhead didnt look like Gore. for the record, Gore is the oldest player to get 1000 yards rushing in aprox 30 years. That does not mean you should go out and buy every 30+ player out there who has some talent. Usually these guys get injured or their skills deteriorate to the point where they are adequate backups and nothing more. Woodhead I would argue was more of a never has been. he had two seasons where he put up 1000 total yards and the receiving totals in those years were 605 and 756 yards. That tells you how well he runs the ball in general. When healthy he can give you spot starts, and to me that makes him an RB3. in PPR he may have occasional RB2 upside if the matchup is right but majority of the time he should be sitting on your bench.

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,579 Posted September 24, 2017 What happens when Dixon comes back? Dixon is out for the year NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon's meniscus injury required a full repair, and he will be out for the season. Dixon was expected to need only a "trim," but a full repair was required upon closer inspection. It's a brutal blow for the 2016 fourth-rounder, who had a golden path to playing time once he returned from his four-game suspension in Week 5. It leaves the Ravens in a lurch, with only pass-catcher Danny Woodhead and fourth-year plodder Terrance West available as legitimate options. We suppose Buck Allen could also get another look. The Ravens could be forced to dip into the wafer-thin free agent market, which is currently "led" by Rashad Jennings and DeAngelo Williams. Still only 23, Dixon is worth stashing in Dynasty leagues, but he's now little more than a 50-50 proposition. Woodhead, who could seize goal-line work, is the preferred Ravens own, even in standard leagues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChinaCat 21 Posted September 24, 2017 1 1/2 hours before game time and no update on West/Allen? Is West a go? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pee-diddy 27 Posted September 24, 2017 Terrance West RB | BAL Ravens' Terrance West: Active for London game by RotoWire Staff (1 hr ago) West (calf) is active Sunday for the Ravens' Week 3 matchup with the Jaguars in London. West had been listed as questionable after the calf injury confined him to the sideline for all but one of the Ravens' three practice days this week, but after getting in a full session Friday and testing things out early Sunday without complications, he'll be cleared to take the field. While West may retain the starting designation, it's still expected that he'll cede ample work to Javorius Allen, particularly on passing downs. Alex Collins, who was promoted from the practice squad last week, may also get some touches when West requires a breather. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AintNoStoppinMeNow 68 Posted September 24, 2017 This is seriously ridiculous. Even in desperate catchup mode with Buck Allen as your primary passing back he's barely in there. Full blown 3 way RBBC.
