Hey Jim. As always, good rankings, but….looks as if you’re assuming that Bradshaw will play? I don’t see him suiting up until wk 12 at the earliest. If he’s out, do you slot Jacobs in at 12?
Looking to start Jacobs over Matthews in a PPR/PPCarry league. Thoughts?
Best,
KJ
Hey man, Yes I always assume people will play in my rankings until told otherwise on the injury reports. I would not put Jacobs quite as high as I would put Bradshaw. I would likely drop him to right below Benson. This is really close to Mathews, but I would likely have to put Mathews out there if I were in your shoes. Neither guy would see even 90% of the touches because of Tolbert and Ware, but Mathews seems much more likely to rip off a big play. Tough call but I am leaning Mathews. Good luck!
