I got Hill in a few leagues, I play him and he sucks. I'm sit him and he goes off. Playing him and Sims in a couple leagues, me winning pretty much depends on them.

I'd move L Murray first probably, that would work though. Pryor might keep his value a little now with Gordon but with your WRs you probably won't play him anyway.

How might you recommend altering a trade for Murray vs a trade for Hill?

That's why I like to get one of the handful of true elite RBs not in a platoon lol.

Fair point. But I only felt like Gurley and D Johnson warranted first 2 round consideration. I wasn't touching AP or Freeman. I would have taken Elliott in the second. After that its a crap shoot and a lot of ifs and maybes. IMO

I wanted David Johnson in every league, finally got him in my 4th and 5th drafts. He might be my 2nd favorite player in the league after EB.

I hate RBs half the league is platooned, makes it hard to gage value from week to week. Freeman runs all over the place but Tevin gets all the TDs. You never know what to do with Hill and Gio.

Yeah, it's almost an issue I have with fantasy's internal format that hasn't aged well as the league's changed.

The main fantasy football format was designed around a time when every team just started a main RB, so it was an important - maybe even the key - position for a team.

In the last decade or so, not only have almost all the teams shifted from the titular starting RB to committee setups, but also the league's greatly shifted towards a much heavier emphasis on the passing game - with the RB now serving much more of a complementary role, away from what had also been such a long held emphasis on running the ball.

It's really stripped the position bare fantasy-wise. I've wanted to try to figure out a way to balance it out properly in formatting a league but have been unsure how to properly do so.

Pryor and a RB for Hill and Graham since her WRs are weak and you seem set on Graham. I'd try Baldwin and Murray for Murray and Graham first though. Might be a little in her favor but you need a RB and probably won't play Baldwin but a couple times. Just don't yell at me if D Murray gets hurt in 2 weeks. Lol

Which is why I always play PPR go WR heavy. Then you can pick up a Sims or Riddick and still be fine at RB. Non PPR I feel like I always get desperate trying to grab the right RB too early.

I used zero RB theory in 10 of my 12 leagues and I'm top 5 in all of them. One of the other 2 that I didn't I'm 10th, and 4th in the other.
