Mike Triplett of the New Orleans Times-Picayune confirms Pierre Thomas is likely to see the biggest increase in touches and production following Darren Sproles' hand fracture.

Triplett expects a "little" more action for Mark Ingram, and Chris Ivory may now be active on game days. We'd add that UDFA Travaris Cadet can do some of the same things Sproles did in the passing game, although he's not nearly as explosive a football player. Thomas' value skyrockets from low-end flex option to locked-in RB2/flex with legitimate RB1 scoring potential in a high-powered offense, though. He needs to be in lineups for Week 9 against Philly.

  • It is against Fleaflicker's terms of service to post offensive material.

Yeah dude just relax if it makes the guy feel better then let him do it. Quite frankly you going off on people on player updates is more annoying than people asking advice. These comment sections are made for people to talk about football so just stick to that and let people ask for others opinion if they want

cool dude

i agree....im looking for opinions under the updates not questions on who to start

ReplyLinkParent

I have Thomas in my RB slot but who should I put in my flex slot: Law Firm or Mike Williams? I also have Torrey and Steve Smith as my WR slots, but have Megatron sitting out this week because of the matchups. Need a little help...

Ahmad Bradshaw or Pierre Thomas? I have Sproles but since he is out, I have to start one of the two. Just not sure about Bradshaw and his ongoing injury.

Detroit has given up the 9th fewest scrimmage yards to opposing backs and have already played against the likes of Gore, Lynch, Forte, A.P., and McKoy. I wouldn't call that run D god awful. It is easy to do.... because the Lions have been bad for so long on D, but this year what is killing them is turnovers and special teams.

The niners ran the same tight end chip play on the lions and ran all over them and marshawn busted a 77 yard td on them as for the other 3 they have had a so so year. Playing against a lions d is a gift from the fantasy gods

Also note that Bell is starting to get touches, to the point where the Detrit backfield becoming a RBBC. Thomas is a clear pick over almost anyone lately anyway.
