I simply mentioned the Ekeler did the same thing with his body in the offseason. Nice try though. You don't watch much football if you don't think Ekeler is just as good as CMC as a receiver but considering your avatar of CMC, you are probably just blinded by love So which is it ? 😂 You're funny.

Jetdog16 703 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 The league winner hype is real. As good of a lotto ticket as any RB handcuff out there and if he's still available he's well worth a stash. Joshua Kelley ticks most of the boxes you're looking for in a lead back. Athletic, powerful and a strong production history in college that includes a 27-reception season. He got significant goal line work Week 1, and while I don't believe he has stand alone value in standard leagues, he will absolutely blow up if Ekeler misses time.

Marty Funkhouser 1,202 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think he might have stand alone value if he's going to get close to half of the carries with the goal line work. That's a guy you can start in a pinch and not feel awful about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LacesOut 69 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think he's definitely someone that can be used in a crisis and maybe more. His upside is maybe capped but it's still higher than your average waiver claim at rb 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FooserX 208 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 When I think "league winner", I think Jonathan Taylor...Chase Edmonds...Mattison... Someone picked way late who is going to put up RB1 #'s to give your team a 1-2 punch of double or triple RB1's. That's not going to happen with any Chargers running back with Tyrod at QB I don't think. He is flex or bye week material...or sub for injury. X 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

X The only league winner there is currently Jonathan Taylor, with the recent Mack injury vaulting him into RB1 status. Edmonds/Mattison are nothing more than lottery ticket handcuffs. At least Joshua offers RB3 / Flex value right now. With room for more as the season progresses. 5 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know this is how it shown on ESPN app and stuff too... but if I am going to really buy into this dude and not feel like I am discussing a 12 year old. Can we please stop calling him Joshua already? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sivaro 943 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) He is on my team now because not only did he pass the eye test, he got goal line touches and can be started on flex or bye weeks.

He sat out last week entirely. His hip (amongst a malady of other ailments) has been an issue for quite awhile. His play has been inconsistent --at best-- the last 3 years. I believe he is a lot more name than game at this point, prob not a big loss--outside of his leadership. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anthony Lynn was pissed after 1st Half & came out 3rd qtr gave Kelley run & goal line looks. He delivered & sparked their team. Chargers era of “check down” ala Rivers is over. To keep up with Chiefs, Ravens,etc. Play action with Gun Slinger Rookie QB Hebert, on the horizon sooner than later; Tyrod did not look good vs Bengals. IMO 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
