chochoking 2 Posted October 7, 2019 Full PPR 12 Team QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/TE What’s your opinion on having both James White & Sony Michel on the same team? Is it advantageous or a negative? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chochoking 2 Posted October 7, 2019 I was just asking in general, like last year with Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram. If you had both James White & Sony Michel would you keep both or try to trade. NE RBs has the best schedule moving forward and I feel like you cover both the rushing and passing TDs with having both and Burkhead is hurt currently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 7, 2019 I would try to trade one of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ehlana 25 Posted October 7, 2019 I'd try and trade both. Michel doesn't catch enough passes for ppr and White doesn't score enough touchdowns. Maybe keep White for bye weeks but now that you're probably not getting more than 10-12 points. Or keep Michel for the bye weeks and hope he scores a touchdown.

chochoking 2 Posted October 7, 2019 isn't NE RBs majority of the offense plus Edelman? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cavern 70 Posted October 7, 2019 i have michel on one dynasty. right or wrong my sense is he should help me as cold weather comes in. until then he can be a sometime plug in. like yesterday when the rex news hit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted October 8, 2019 If Rb2 and flex I’m cool with it but as top 2 RBs it’s not a great look Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sderk 1,040 Posted October 10, 2019 Michel caught 3 passes on 3 targets last week for 32 yards. This could be a big deal. Defenses will be even be even more confused if Michel can get 4 targets a game, which will also help Michel's run game. 3 for 32 is a big deal in fantasy for a starting #2-3 running back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chochoking 2 Posted October 10, 2019 Well, I'm a play both tonight and then sell high on Michel, I'll keep White, since I'm in a Full PPR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was with Burkhead inactive. When Rex is back Sony will go back to his non-targeted self... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burkhead being out (hardly a rare thing, BTW) certainly helps Michel get more overall touches. But the Pats would like him to be involved in the passing game regardless. That way it’s not blatantly obvious that they’re running when he’s in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While I appreciate that's what Sony owners would like to believe, the data doesn't support that position. In weeks 1-3 when Rex was healthy and playing he out-targeted Sony 17-1. Is is just a coincidence that in the one game Rex missed Sony got a boost in targets and catches? Perhaps, but not bloody likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
