INSIGHT

Allgeier Offers Safer Short Term Volume

  • Tyler Allgeier offers immediate volume if Jeremiah Love and Bam Knight miss time, while Mike Washington carries more uncertainty in a split Raiders backfield.
  • Both face difficult matchups, but Allgeier could approach 20 touches against Seattle in Week 9.
ADVICE

Cap Mike Washington At Twenty Dollars

  • Add Mike Washington, but avoid paying a premium unless your running-back room is desperate.
  • His 25 carries showed workload, yet he went 0-for-6 on goal-line attempts and produced inefficiently behind a struggling offensive line.
INSIGHT

McGowan Needs A Taylor Trade

  • Seth McGowan becomes an RB2 if Jonathan Taylor is traded because consistent touches can overcome mediocre talent.
  • Pat Fitzmaurice cautioned that Indianapolis could limit him to flex value in a poor offense.
