Matt Mueller 146 Posted October 1, 2019 What's the outlook ROS? He was a later depth target for me in a lot of leagues and his lack of invovlement early was not encouraging. Was last week a breakout game and a sign of a more consistent touch count or a one-off game plan? JuJu did nothing last week which won't happen often. Connor's ankle tweaked.

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted October 1, 2019 I don't think anyone can tell. He's not scoring a td each week which really boosted his fantasy points. I think the Steelers have been screwing themselves by going exclusive Conner. He can't handle a full load without getting hurt imo. It makes no sense not to go 50 50. The week before slow and terrible Benny Snell got 3 carries to Samuels 0. Wtf was that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It appears the only players of value in the Steelers is Samuels and Connors since Tomlinson wants to play cute high-school-level trick plays and dink and dunk all day long. You can forget about any receivers or TE's in this ghey offense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He seems to have very little upside unless Allen goes down. White is solid but he isn't a stud. I kind of prefer Diontae and Thompson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shutdown 40 Posted October 1, 2019 Given that Rudolph has one of the lowest air yards per target, I'd say Samuels has a solid floor with his receiving game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AxeElf 787 Posted October 1, 2019 In leagues smaller than 16 teams with rosters smaller than 20 players, forget about Samuels. In all other leagues, grab him immediately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwentyFourSeven 23 Posted October 2, 2019 If you're patient, Samuels will pay off. Connor is nursing his ankle injury still and it would appear it is not getting much healthier yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted October 2, 2019 In our FFTODAY IBL league I have an offer to sell Samuels and get McCoy. Hmm younger upstart or older horse? I’m not really clear either way who I might like more. Ekler, Mixon-Gio, Samuels is my basic core PPR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuJu hasn’t done much all season so far and that was true even before roethlisberger went down. I think we have to conclude he’s just not that great without AB taking the heat away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Talk about your rookie leagues... Axe Elf led not one but TWO different boards to victory in the IBL back in the day. Hopefully the competition has improved over the years, but reading this trade offer... yeah, probly not. Most of those guys just want to trade for trading's sake--makes them feel like they're really managing the heck out of their teams--but then you can burn them to ashes when you get trade offers like this.

DEEZNUTS 18 Posted October 3, 2019 If Conner is out this week (missed practice today), Samuels becomes a top 10 RB in week 5. I picked him up and will definitely start him if Conner misses time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is going to lose his lock on the job if Samuels steps in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,653 Posted October 3, 2019 Are the Steelers playing the Bengals at home again this week? Then by all means, get him in your lineup! We all know how well the gimmicks work a few weeks after the leauge sees them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 3, 2019 I wouldn’t be shocked if Conner misses this game, if he can’t play he can’t play. And I don’t honk it really matters if he misses this one game due to injury, he’s still going to their best rb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
