Okay, so I’ve been messing around with fantasy football stuff, trying to decide between James Conner and J.K. Dobbins for my flex spot. It’s a tough one, man, both have their ups and downs.
First, I pulled up their stats from last season. Just looking at the raw numbers, you know? Points per game, touchdowns, yards, all that good stuff. I created a simple table to compare.
- Looked at James Conner’s game logs. Noticed he’s pretty consistent, always getting a decent amount of touches.
- Then checked out J.K. Dobbins. Saw that he had some big games, but also some really quiet ones. Boom or bust, I thought.
Next, I dug into some recent news and articles. Trying to get a feel for their current situations. Are they healthy? What are the coaches saying about them?
- Read a few expert opinions (not going to name the sources, it’s just some website). Some were high on Conner’s steady workload, others were hyped about Dobbins’ potential if he stays healthy.
- Scrolled the injury reports. Always gotta check that, right? Both seemed okay for now, knock on wood.
After that, I considered their team situations. You know, offensive line, quarterback play, overall team strategy. All that affects a running back’s performance.
- Thought about Arizona’s offense. Seemed like they might lean on Conner a lot, especially in the red zone.
- Considered Baltimore’s run-heavy approach. Dobbins could get a ton of carries, but he also has to share with Lamar Jackson.
My Final Thoughts
Honestly, I went back and forth a bunch of times. Conner felt like the safer pick, the guy who’ll get you a solid 10-12 points. Dobbins is the riskier play, the one who could explode for 20+ or give you a big fat zero. After the hard compare, I decide to go with Conner.
I’m all done for the work.
