Wait a second... 191 carries for 753 yards and 6 TDs on the ground. 32 catches for 217 yards and a TD in the air.

75.3 + 36 + 32 + 21.7 + 6 = 171 

To avoid week 18 comparison when playoff bound-Rbs didn't even play..... 171 / 17 = 10.058 x 16 games = 160.94

Rb 31 weeks 1-17 ppr.  Pt/gm ranking 37th.

Yup.  I think I did total yards, then added receiving back in again.  LOL  Good catch.

I just think that waiting for someone to get hurt is a significantly riskier move than a starting RB.

Yeah, I'd expect those two to be there... they should be.  One is coming off an ACL tear and the other is a backup who will only start (based on history), 4 games.  Very high risk.  I wouldn't take either of those two until like 11th or 12th rounds as my RB5 or something.

If Benson is as good as scouts say, he could take the job outright by mid season even if Conner stays healthy.

I'll give ya Brooks isn't the most enticing. Supposedly very talented, but not known for receptions and ya wonder how slowly they ease him back from injury. But never know - might come back and blow up with those great running skills that got him drafted so early. More potential upside than Zeke, IMO.

I think Benson is a very good investment.

Rico Dowdle will be taking over

If you don't believe Zeke is worthy as a RB3 or Flex start and you just draft him for your bench, you'd probably be better off drafting your starting RB handcuffs instead, which I always recommend depending on league size, bench size, and starting requirements.

I'm not sure what Zeke will be this year, he might return good value probably worth a shot to draft him as RB4 with hopefully some upside with TD potential and receptions.

I think so, rb4-5 with flex potential, that’s good.
