Is Barkley a 1st Rounder? Not in 2021

Be on the field?

Not really news.

Takes 20 touches?

That would be news.

for the record, Barkley was cut loose by someone in my keeper league (we keep 3)

Its a 2 QB league (so the equivalent of superflex)  meaning QB's have more value than most other positions.

That said, It was still a surprise move from a team who was hoping to contend this year and didnt want to hold him knowing that the first half of the season may be subpar as he's still recovering from the injury.

at least that was the rationale I got from his comments.

Not sure I'm buying that, but if he felt this way chances are good that others out there feel the same way.

Every league needs 11 also-rans.

It depends who he chose to keep in his stead, but yeah he will likely regret it…

Doesn’t make since to let Barkley go

I have not looked at the roster, but Barkley is generally going top 15 in most redrafts.

In a keeper league at the very least, dude would need to have three top 20 players to keep to even make this remotely make sense.

not saying it cant happen.  just saying its unlikely.

Barkley just went 2.07 in a competitive 12 team PPR league that I have been in for 25 years. That OL is scaring the crap out of everyone.
