Well ladies and gentlemen, here comes your OROY, Clyde Edwards-Helaire. I was skeptical of drafting him in the past weeks as I knew he'd be over drafted in many leagues just due to the fact that he is on KC. But now that Damien Williams has opted out, there is no better time to swoop up CEH in the late first early second.
One of the
stats that actually transitions to the pros from college best for rookie
runningback is TDs, and last year CEH scored a total of 17 TDs. Now, I don't
think that he's going to score 17 TDs, but I do think that he will be very
productive in this category. Plus, he is a PPR machine, catching 55 passes last
year for 453 yards and 1 TD. This will only improve in the innovative Andy Reid
offense. They didn't spend a first round pick on CEH just to have him do
regular boring runningback things. CEH is a CMC type of player who can do
literally anything you ask him to, and man, they are going to use him to
death.
Like I
said earlier, Damien Williams opted out of the season giving CEH the clear
number one spot with not much competition behind him that would sniping be carries. He could possibly become a three-down runningback, really only going
off the field when he needs a quick break, but neither Darwin Thompson or
Darrel Williams will be taking snaps away from CEH.
CEH has
quickly rose into my top RB list, and although many of the round one RBs after
about the fourth pick do not seem as safe and seem much riskier, CEH seems to
be a safer pick. Teams do not spend first round picks on RBs just to have them
no produce. They will force them onto the field and have them play in the ways
that they desire. That's why I was so high on Josh Jacobs last year, it is way
too high of an investment to just waste. Plus, if there is any staff that will
figure out how to use a player to the best of their abilities it is the Chiefs.
Trust in KC and trust me, if you're picking mid to late in the first or early
in the second. Draft. Clyde. Edwards. Helaire.
