IGotWorms 3,366 Posted October 19, 2016 Muscle Hamster still out? Jacquizz worth anything? What if Martin is back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oriole8159 86 Posted October 19, 2016 no word yet on Martin, so hard to say there. I'd pickup Rodgers just to see what happens over the next few days, but I wouldn't waste a waiver on him. He's just not big enough to be an every down back, so I'd think they'd sign a complimentary back to pair with Rodgers in the event that Martin misses significant time. very low upside on Rodgers, outside of maybe this week if you need a filler.

BobSanders_33 127 Posted October 19, 2016 No word on Martin and reports where that he wasn't seen at practice today. You would have hoped that he would be ready to go after the bye but it doesn't seem to be the case. I know a lot of people are getting overly excited about his schedule and NO in the playoffs but I'd temper that with him being an injured RB that got paid.

I'd beg to differ on Rodgers' upside over the next three weeks. Facing the Niners, Raiders and Falcons should give Quizz an opportunity to put up high RB2 (if not RB1) fantasy numbers. He got a whopping 30 carries against the Panthers; clearly Koetter isn't afraid to give Rodgers a large workload. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brutal Brutus 182 Posted October 20, 2016 I'd beg to differ on Rodgers' upside over the next three weeks.

He got a whopping 30 carries against the Panthers; clearly Koetter isn't afraid to give Rodgers a large workload. Traveling across the country, plays for a mediocre team, and is a career journeyman, who has never had a large role in an offense. I see opportunity and that's about it. Sometimes that's enough, but I would set mid to low RB 2 expectations and be happy if he produces more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RepoPatrol 14 Posted October 20, 2016 Martin re-aggravated his injury in practice and is out for Week 7. If you need a filler than Rodgers is your man. Just about guaranteed to have 20+ touches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,489 Posted October 20, 2016 Agree 20 touches at 3.3 per rush = 66 yards and no tds. So is that enough for you to start him , thats the question you need to ask yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antiramie 50 Posted October 20, 2016 Traveling across the country, plays for a mediocre team, and is a career journeyman, who has never had a large role in an offense. I see opportunity and that's about it. Sometimes that's enough, but I would set mid to low RB 2 expectations and be happy if he produces more. Anyone saying he's an RB1 or has RB1 potential this week or any week he's the starter is out of their mind. Rodgers has a career 3.7 ypc. SF has played against 5 juggernaut rushing offenses (DAL, ARI, CAR, BUF) and 4 of the top 7 RBs in FF (DJ, Zeke, McCoy, and C-Mike). SF has played about as tough a run schedule as possible up until now. Their run D WILL get better statistically. Also, TB's rushing offense nor Rodgers' ability are remotely close to what SF has faced so far. Does Rodgers have upside this week? Yes. Will he come close to 30 carries again? Hell no. Prediction: 17/64 yds, 1/2 yds, 0 TD Total: 6.6 pts standard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,366 Posted October 20, 2016 I would be happy with RB2 production Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
