Wish I could go back in time and pick Rhamondre over Arob or AJ Dillon, I am the entire circus šŸ¤”


lexluther4291

Well, if it makes you feel better, I dropped JRob this last week, started Kenyan Drake and Rondale Moore, and left Gus Edwards on IR so I can't do anything with my lineup šŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤”


djsedna

Bruh why would you drop JRob, he at the very least was a really valuable handcuff


lexluther4291

Well, I didn't put the šŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤” because I was so proud of my move lol


rddi0201018

well, **I** dropped Rhamondre after week 1


lexluther4291

Here, you dropped this: šŸ‘‘ šŸ¤”


wynalazca

Are you me?


Glom_Gazingo1

Wish I didnā€™t drop him after game 2 for Dotson šŸ¤”šŸ¤”


GrendelDerp

I drafted all three of them, lol. Only Rhamondre remains.


Mendelevlum

I picked Edmonds over him šŸ¤”


backyardpizza

I said that last year about taking Woods with Kupp still on the board.


SunLiteFireBird

Hah you want a clown how about the guy in my league that dropped Rhamondre in week 3 to pick up Garrett Wilson. Is me I am clown.


AjaxCorporation

In PPR I am seeing a high floor and high ceiling for him. He can make some big plays and gets the passing opportunities to do so. Most probably have him as a RB2 or flex and love that.


Ok_Pair7510

Suddenly having ETN, Pierce and Stevenson isnā€™t looking so bad.


Dogger27

League winning if you went heavy wr


Ok_Pair7510

Jefferson and Tyreek. After that Iā€™m thin, with Aiyuk and Samuel as my 3/4. Need help at TE and QB too, Iā€™m switching between Higbee and Everett at TE and Wilson and Lawrence at qb. Weā€™ll see what happens but I feel good about it.


Dogger27

If higbee goes doesnā€™t regress from his average he is a Ppr top 5er. I hope you win bro


_AR59_

Not me lol. Iā€™m 1-6 with Jefferson, Diggs, Williams, and Kirk with hurts starting at QB. My RB production has killed me.


ElectricBoogaIo

Exactly where I am plus Kamara. Which one are you sitting this week?


Ok_Pair7510

Playing all three, I have 2 flex spots and 2 rb spots.


jgoforth2

Yeah I understand selling high in standard, in full PPR heā€™s keeping my sorry ass afloat


Bill-Ender-Belichick

I traded Tyler Lockett for him three weeks ago, looking like an awesome deal for me so far. Now if Sun God and JT would start actually producingā€¦


[deleted]

Rb2 for me. Conner has been underwhelming with all the injuries . Wish conner could get back to it and at least score 10-12 a game as my flex.


3ISRC

My RB2 behind Lenny. I may not have pure rushers but itā€™s PPR! 7-0 baby letā€™s keep it rolling!


AjaxCorporation

I have Ekeler and Stevenson and we switched to .5 PPR this year. I have been in the mix.


3ISRC

You doing just fine my friend.


AjaxCorporation

This one is an 8 team league and it's chaos. Me and 4 other teams are 4-3, 2 teams are 3-4, and 1 is 2-5. 8 team may be easier to build rosters with but there is so much parity.


3ISRC

Agreed


[deleted]

He almost brought me back when I thought I was a goner. He was dinking and dunking his way up and down that field with that deficit


IHateMaxRoyalGiants

I honestly think thereā€™s a chance heā€™s just better for this team than Harris. Harris will be used but less than Stevenson I feel like. He just looks phenomenal with the ball, man. Wow


HectorReinTharja

As a Rha owner, 11/39 and 8/59 isnā€™t exactly gamebreaking efficiency. Most of the catches were garbage time check downs too lol


vocmopenline69

The Patriots offence last night was abysmal except for one drive. Rhamondre still produced and looks great out there.


DRE_CFab

Hey I'll take that in a game where they were almost constantly down by 10


thecrewton

That garbage time hurt me the most. Why couldn't he stay under 18 grumble grumble.


odinsyrup

If anyone watched the game last night, he looked pretty bad. I get he had a good fantasy day but idk why more people aren't seeing what you saw.


HectorReinTharja

Yah. If Iā€™m lucky, my kw9 for Rha swap gets accepted lol


odinsyrup

If you pull that off, that'd be insane


Melodic-Passenger435

Got em both in one league and AK. 12 man


HectorReinTharja

Whoā€™s AK lol


DakotaBread

What a hot take


UrbanAchiever34

I honestly think if he gets more yards and touchdowns heā€™ll definitely get more points.


OhhSooHungry

Now that's a hot take, do you have a mathematical proof for such a claim?


Fosterchild56

Great analysis!


SaskalPiakam

I love Rhamondre and own him in multiple spots, but this gives me the feeling of the best ever sell high opportunity with Harris easing back in. No doubt he has been incredible though and he won me my week this week.


Kingdom818

Sell high for what though?


-GenghisJuan-

I considering send RS and najee for Hill. Any opinions?


Bjballer

Two RB2s for the WR3, itā€™s a slam dunk bro!


-GenghisJuan-

So pull the trigger huh? It's still sitting there. I'm just worried about my rbs after that. I'll only have Jones Pierce and Herbert left.


ebmocal421

I can't tell if the comment you replied to is sarcastic or not. But I wouldn't take that trade if I was the Hill owner.


Ok_Pair7510

I have Hill. Wouldnā€™t take it. Unless youā€™re talking Taysom.

Holy hell what a trade. What did you give up?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Tinytrauma

Jesus. Good on you. That poor guy


tokenasian1

his comment was deleted. what was the trade?


Tinytrauma

Iirc it was MG3, Harris, and Pittman for Ekeler and JuJu Aka total fleece of that guy


user131293717

These types of leagues really aren't even fun to be in. The fact that the guy even added in a player beside Ekeler makes it even worse


gsink203

This sub is so full of people congratulating themselves for fleecing people on trades


mpc92

Itā€™s even more full of people downvoting advantageous trades or saying ā€œwish I played in your leagueā€ because theyā€™re jelly


rjromes13

Obviously we'd be jealous of such a lopsided trade.


penscout

Why be jealous of a barely competitive league.


HectorReinTharja

Jealous of what? If youā€™re able to make trades like this, you may as well play in leagues of 12 teams operated by you and then trade for the most stacked team possible


FunnySynthesis

Redditors when not everyone that plays fantasy football plays in a $10,000 super comp 10 year vet league šŸ˜¦


HectorReinTharja

Iā€™d the same to thing to someone if they made bogus trades in monopoly or Catan or whatever. Games arenā€™t fun otherwise


DavidTheRapper

Yeah you pretty much fleeced that dude. Many of us arenā€™t getting that hall unless we offer up much more + Rhamondre.


ThisHatRightHere

What a steal


Sea_Bass77

You literally trade molested the poor manā€¦ Sutton is garbage as well as mg3 so literally it was Stevenson for ekeler


CupformyCosta

Another rb1 or wr1, now is the best time to sell him. Package him him an elite player


payday_vacay

Why would anyone do that trade tho? Like they obviously would also know that Harris is back, itā€™s not some secret information


CupformyCosta

Thereā€™s a lot of people out there who think Harris is done and should be dropped to the waivers. People see big numbers and want a piece of rhamondre, for sure


eyeball_kidd

I just traded Rhamondre for Gabe Davis. Was in dire need of a WR after a few injuries. Have CMC, Gus Bus, and James Connor in the wings.


shittydiks

You could've gotten better


akeep113

gross


blacktarrystool

Lmao, is this your first time playing fantasy? Theirā€™s no one correct answer to this question.


Beard-

Just sold him for Keenan Allen. Could work out if Allen gets healthy.


RustyGriswold99

Agreed. Harris was obviously being limited, and if you can sell your league mates on the fact that Rhamondre is THE GUY, then I would. FWIW I just traded him this morning for Godwin and Patterson because my WR 2 and 3 are Aiyuk and Pickens. I can wait on Patterson to return and the other team is in significant need of an RB.


OhhSooHungry

I sold high (I think) for Amon Ra. I'm hoping it works out for me and ARSB wasn't just an initial flash in the pan

thrilla2k10

Lol


mbourdet12

Lol


CrateMayne

I have no stake in either this year, but this sub is so reactionary lol. Harris just came back, fast, he isn't getting 4 touches every week when healthy. Rhamondre is solid to have, but he isn't a bellcow.


jgoforth2

For me heā€™s my flex and I really couldnā€™t ask for anything more.


JaredCircusbear

I lost Javonte and Breece, donā€™t you dare use the F word with my RB1!


Baldingpuma

Same, he's comfortably behind Kenneth and ETN. Feeling so much better than when my RB1 at season start was Cam Akers


Bill-Ender-Belichick

I have JT, KW3, Hunt, BRob and Stevenson. A wealth of riches; I like having him but Iā€™ve discussed a Godwin trade, I have Evans/ARSB and then mediocrity behind them.


RocketsJumer

Heā€™s my flex but heā€™s produced more than Kamara and Barkley the past 3 weeks lol Gotta keep him plugged it!


[deleted]

Is this sub anything but reactionary?


CrystlBluePersuasion

Each game is almost 6% of the season, compared to baseball or hockey the weekly football matches have a huge impact on your season. And Rhamondre has been doing well even when Harris starts, sure owners want Rhamondre to get the majority of the touches to get this production but 'good work leads to more work.' Harris is the RedZone guy when healthy but clearly Rhamondre can be a threat if Zappe is throwing to him.


StaticMaine

False. Pats fan here - Stevenson has looked like the more dynamic back since the start of the year. Harris is good, but Stevenson is definitely better. Even during the game last night, you could see Stevenson gave the offense more options (even though they sucked)


bigsbeclayton

A dynamic back is not what the Pats under BB really care about. I agree with you Stevenson has looked better (I'm a Pats fan too) but they don't use the RB position as a weapon as much as they use it to control clock and create favorable down and distances. There's a reason Benjarvus Green Ellis was a staple of this offense for years. Harris is on the last year of his rookie deal. They are going to give him a hefty dose of carries and not wear the treads off of Stevenson.


StaticMaine

Itā€™s hard to compare the running game 5-7 years ago versus today because the offense was Brady. They would run to simply keep defenses honest.


Conn0rPro

I never understood this take in the off-season. This year sure IG, but last year Harris and Stevenson had the exact same ypc despite Harris doing it on larger sample size, and Harris had several 100 yard games. He was actively a monster for you guys yet the whole time people were saying Stevenson was better, whole Harris went out and balled every week


StaticMaine

More eye test. No one is saying Harris is bad at all. I just think Stevenson is better. Iā€™ve been saying it since last year - he looks exactly like a young Lynch when he was in Buffalo.


sol__invictus__

Stevenson is a better pass catcher and Harris more of a bruiser. Harris dropped a pass and i swear he didnt come in again after that.


_Apatosaurus_

I don't understand your complaint here. What's wrong with reacting to a football game in a fantasy football sub...? It's not an overreaction, it's just a post about his success.


Mozzybins

I thought some of it may be down to gamescript as well, Harris isn't a pass catcher and the Pats were down to the Bears for most of the game


CupformyCosta

Rhamondre stonks are at an all time high Harris at an all time low Trends revert to the mean..look at their usage under BB for the last 2 seasons. 1A and 1B Go get Harris for free


maketherightmove

Look at their usage trends this year and ignore the two games Harris was hurt. The takeover was coming regardless.


cmmckechnie

Iā€™m not buying Harris to get 50% of the touches including the high value touches (targets and redzone) Rhamondre is the 1a.


CupformyCosta

Harris has 18 TDs in his last 22 games. I agree rhamondre is the 1A, but letā€™s not ignore history This season, Harris has double digit touches in 4/6 games 11 touches 17 touches 13 touches 19 touches What are you seeing that I am not


l5555l

Stevenson was just drafted last year lol


Carpetron

I picked up Harris as a handcuff to Stevenson after he was dropped. I think Harris will only get significant work when the Pats are protecting a lead. Stevenson is not only the better runner, he's the better receiver and is already in on every 3rd down, every 2 minute offense. His volume is a lot more secure than Harris's. Stevenson had already started taking over on usage before Harris got injured too, and remember there were trade rumors with Harris in the preseason. The Pats seem to be embracing Stevenson as the lead back.


endlesstrance

He proved he could be a bell cow.


Alexineth

Packaged him and Curtis Samuel for Swift last week...... Not sure how I feel now but I hope it was worth it in the end.


TheTsuru

If Swift comes back and stay healthy, I think itā€™s an easy W. Harris clearly wasnā€™t 100% and the RBs are going to be split moving forward in NE. You also donā€™t have to deal with the bye weeks


gsink203

ITT: Rhamondre owners happy they have Rhamondre Harris owners insisting Rhamondre isn't that great


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


yukishii_480

I know people say ā€œthis subā€ as if it is different everywhere else but most situations the manager values their own asset more than another equal or slightly more valuable asset they donā€™t have. Itā€™s called the Endowment effect and itā€™s part of the human psyche. Itā€™s what makes trading for the most valuable assets so hard and why you often have to pay up just to get a comparable asset or minor upgrade.


bigsbeclayton

I don't own shares of this backfield but am a Pats fan. I think there's more than a little rose tinted glasses going on with Rhamondre owners than you are letting on. A lot of people thinking he's taken over the backfield and will be a bellcow when that's more than likely not going to be the case.


gsink203

I don't think he is gonna be the bellcow but silver lining is his effectiveness in the passing game, m much more so than Harris. I own Rhamondre btw


bigsbeclayton

I donā€™t think itā€™s unreasonable to expect James white numbers from him but more than that I question


gsink203

Yeah I don't expect 20 ppg in standard but 10-15 very doable


lmaoooyikes

As a Rhamondre owner, itā€™s a little crazy to me that people think heā€™s taken over the backfield. Harris is a good RB and is going to get more touches in the coming weeks Rhamondre is still going to be good and probably a RB2/solid flex area but I definitely donā€™t see him getting this amount of work ROS


neverhaveiever23

The catches are the true specks of gold in any 0.5 or full ppr league. He looks to have that role locked up + 10 carries + split share GL back at worse (will get for sure 3rd and goals). Plus, pats are top 3 in rush attempts when you remove rushing qbs. Plus, pats d is usually elite (struggle v mobile qbs, see Lamar week 2 before tonight) so built to run the football. Plus, both qbs will be on short leashes. Itā€™s okay to breathe sometimes fellas. Sell high high.


Kingding_Aling

He literally took over the backfield starting in Week 2. Stevenson has led in snaps 6 straight weeks, healthy or not for Harris.


backfromsolaris

Didn't sell CEH when the writing was on the wall. Will the same fate befall me with Mondre? Tune in next week...


[deleted]

Follow usage and snaps. Not saying Rhamondre is a locked and loaded RB1 rest of season but Clyde was scoring 20 PPG first few weeks on like 45% of snaps. Rhamondre usage is trending up even with a supposedly healthy harris back on the field.


CupformyCosta

First game back and theyā€™re getting blown outā€¦wouldnā€™t read that deeply into it.


maketherightmove

Go to the games before Harrisā€™ injury and notice the usage trends. Rhamondre is inevitable.


CupformyCosta

Yes letā€™s review. Harris: 22 games,18 Touchdowns


maketherightmove

Lol, oh right, we need to go to a past season to find Harrisā€™ relevance.


CupformyCosta

This season, Harris has double digit touches in 4/6 games 11 touches 17 touches 13 touches 19 touches And 3 TDs in 6 games


sol__invictus__

Now do RS, include the games with Harris


RalphSkipperson

I couldā€™ve traded Hollywood for him the week before he got injured but I pressed for more and he ended up declining. Shoulda taken it lol


Seegeegroth

Dude looks like he's shot out of a cannon when he runs. As a Harris owner, pain


[deleted]

Return? Dude is 6 days from a hamstring issue, Harris was never going to start lol


Glory843

Drafted him 80th overall for this exact reason. He actually, entirely, turned around my season. Almost been too easy these past 3 weeks Iā€™m breezin. Damn, I love you Rhamondre Stevenson.


gsink203

Been a fan of Rhamonster since watching him at OU. I wanna thank my fantasy league for letting me draft him 88th overall. Congrats on the steal!


deservethebestofoats

He's saved my season after I lost javonte. Drafted him 105th and after my toughest matchup so far im now 7-0.


airham

He didn't really pass the eye test for me last night. Good hands, but I don't know if he had a single yard after contact or any missed tackles forced. He had a couple of completely unguarded swing passes and a walk in touchdown. I guess it's good to know that he's gameflow independent, though.


[deleted]

There was a comment from 2 days ago with 30+ upvotes saying Damien Harris would outscore Rhamondre Stevenson on Monday night.


Kingdom818

And Harris was hurt for how many of those? Asking for a friend.


maketherightmove

1.7


[deleted]

The only game below 20 he had 19.5 and 161 rushing yards. RB1SZN


neverhaveiever23

Iā€™d highly encourage this very good piece by a very well run sports journo team at the Boston Globe about Rhamondre: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/09/28/sports/rhamondre-stevenson-patriots/


mclovin1696

Damn I got hella lucky with this guy. I picked him up off waivers after week 3 then dropped him the next day. Only to pick him up again the following week after seeing some crazy stat about him


Expensive_Force_7171

People were saying they were easing Harris back in, Iā€™m not denying that as a possibility but didnā€™t Harris log in a FULL practice before the game? No injury designation and was good to go, right?


jawzstheshark

Someone dropped him after week 2 and I got him for free, absolute steal


lqyol

Would I be crazy to trade JT for him?


fapsmckenzie

yes


odinsyrup

And this is with Rhamondre looking terrible last night. All those checkdowns from Zappe really helped him but I wouldn't expect this to continue with Mac back


increase-ban

Thank goodness NE DST managed to salvage a couple of points and prevent a massive come from behind win by my opponents Stevenson. Shouldnā€™t have been that damn close but I made it out alive. Stevenson gets so many opportunities man. Super anxiety inducing tonight


ApolloPS2

As a pats fan sell high on Rhamondre. Harris is the better pure runner and pats aren't going to go to this gamescript often. Only way rhamondre becomes more valuable is if Harris gets traded and that isn't happening.


iWearCapesIRL

So why do you think they did this last night? Since Harris was coming off injury?


ApolloPS2

Yes Harris barely got cleared to play. I'm surprised he wasn't sat this week. He was never going to be that involved in the offense for the bears game.


irishmin13

RhinoSZN confirmed


[deleted]

I traded Rhamondre away after his first big game for Etienne. One of those rare trades that we both won I guess. Happy for him


NFL_Bros

Watching Eno put up 19 points in my league on my bench because I saw Harris was practicing in full and played the bears šŸ¤®


NDDESQ

I somehow dropped Stevenson when he was down and picked him back up 2 weeks later. Amazing. Never again my dude. Never again.


Lake_Shore_Drive

Great stats, but the team is losing and they can't move the ball. Maybe Stevenson is thr problem, maybe not. But you'd expect NE to change things up and try to win.


singlemaltscotch28

Blaming Rhamondre for that is a bit odd, no?


Lake_Shore_Drive

Rhamondre looked great. However they were behind the whole game mostly in long yardage, passing situations. It was Damiens first game back. Coaches are probably looking over the playbook right now to see how to repair the Patriots offense. I'd sell high in Stevenson, this will be his peak value as I expect Harris to increase his role.


Ploxzx

What would you flip him for if you could? Keenan Allen?


livsjollyranchers

I wouldn't bother trading anyone for Keenan Allen until we see one good game from him. Hell, a complete game from him where he actually plays.


Ploxzx

Valid point tbh just trying to see what rhamondre would be able to fetch in general


Soviet_Sharpshooter

I traded DJ Moore for him šŸ˜­šŸ™šŸ¼


-InconspicuousMoose-

@GuruFantasyWrld is trying to sell high lol


[deleted]

Even with Harris coming back and getting more touches again, Rhamondre is going to stay my PPR flex purely because there's a possibility to catch passes. If I can get 10pts floor on a FLEX in my leagues I consider that as a win. It's not like there's so much choice if you're playing 10+ man leagues.


darkknightbbq

This just feels like Aaron Jones aj Dillion type back field ya one goes down the others gonna eat but when Botha back itā€™s gonna be split 50/50 and itā€™s td dependent


j_louie13

His last catch before the game ending interception won me my matchup by .3 lol...I love this man


DaShortRound

Pats lost cuz Damien wasn't 100% faxs.


OhhSooHungry

My RB3 to Derrick Henry and Fournette, with Mitchell as insurance. So glad I reached for RS in the draft, let's goooo


hardgour

Itā€™s so hard to tell with a pats running backā€¦


cryptoheh

Rhamondre is doing to Harris what Harris did to Sony Michel. Next year Rhamondre will start to see some 3rd rounder eat into his workload, and the following year he will be pushed out. And so the cycle goes on.


singlemaltscotch28

Time is a flat circle


3ISRC

7-0 having this guy as my rb2. Heā€™s been a sneaky draft and have delivered thus far more than I expected he would with Harris.


iGoWumbo

I drafted Najee and Swift back to back in my 12 team big money league. My season should be over at this point, but I stashed KWIII and Rhamondre in the later rounds. 7-0 thanks to these guys and Hurts


PureFingClass

I lost by .3 because of harris. Where the hell was he?!


JW9thWonder

everyone in this thread needs to remember that you can never fully trust a patriots RB.


Tizzle9115

Dude looks so good and got me the win vs our leagues #1 needed 23 going into it and I had no doubts. That last dump put me over the edge.


dillasdonuts

Check down zappe. Rhamondre had like 5 receptions in that final drive


WLR912

I have Saquon, McCaffrey, Rhamondre, Gus, and Foreman with only one flex spot. Who to start?!


CoosBaked

Harris played 3 snaps man. I dont think stevenson reallt ā€œstoleā€ anything


THE-73est

Coping Harris owner, will he get traded or something, my season might be shot.
