easilyscan 558 Posted October 21, 2022 The Drake J.K. DOBBINSRB, BALTIMORE RAVENS ESPN's Adam Schefter reports J.K. Dobbins "is expected to undergo arthroscopic knee surgery next week that would sideline him 4-6 weeks." Dobbins came back from a torn ACL plus extra damage throughout his knee in Week 3. The Ravens limited his workload for four weeks, but he appeared to re-injure his knee last week. John Harbaugh said Dobbins' knee "tightened up", but the issue was likely worse than initially expected. Baltimore will likely play things even safer with Dobbins this time around. Until he returns, Kenyan Drake is expected to start with Mike Davis serving as his backup. Drake should be good for FLEX-worthy fantasy numbers as the lead-back on a strong offense.

The ravens are to rb's, what the giants are to wr's. Avoid unless absolutely necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One benefit of autodrafting is that you're not necessarily emotionally invested in the players on your team. If someone isn't performing, it's a lot easier to cut them for someone who is, rather than keep starting him for three weeks because "you just know you're right about him." So sometimes autodrafters are in the best position to pick up early-season waiver treasures, while everyone else is still invested in "their guys." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People that I know that draft online in those free leagues say this happens all the time , and those auto draft teams generally go unmanaged through out the ff season.

GobbleDog 816 Posted October 22, 2022 Used waiver on Drake for bye-week filler and planned on dumping him next week. Guess he'll stick around longer than I expected.

Every team has some back-up RBs and that's all those guys are to me. They've never done anything of note. I'm mostly concerned about L Jackson stealing touches. Drake looked great last week, so hopefully they keep feeding him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes they add/drop Interesting take on not being invested while we all fall in love and wait and wait for the projections to come with the name Im doing exactly that with Kamara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yahoo drafted the TE and QB positions earlyish for him, and hit on both Jalen Hurts and Goedert. Hitting on Waddle, Olave, Breece Hall, and Kenneth Walker didn't hurt either.
