3 MUST AVOID Running Backs To Skip in 2024 Fantasy Football - Fantasy Football Advice 

But he only used stats from his last 4 games 😂. I would be ok snagging him as an RB3 possibly....

Well, I’m not wrong right now because nothing has happened yet 😂 But make sure to watch the whole video. I didn’t use his numbers in Weeks 1-14 in this video. Could I be wrong on White? Sure, but I could also be right. 😏

@@TheFantasyHeadlinersyup I think you’re going to wrong as well, but I am completely with you on the fact that who knows you could be right. It’s not a great offense so like you said we will see. I also see why the person mentioned the fact that he didn’t play weeks 1-14. You mention it numerous times despite the fact that what he did in those games is absolutely irrelevant since he wasn’t starting yet.

@@TheFantasyHeadliners but to be fair bud,, you did say he did nothing all season,, which in itself is not a fair statement,, he didn't play all season because he had Josh Jacobs in front of him.. so the way you word it kind of sounds like you're saying he was a bum all year

@@Thought_Criminal_13 but for a offense that's not good, in the four shots that he got,, he still did good,, which further implies he's worth a shot man

😂😂😂 Lots of soap and water buddy

Keep banging bro

Gotta shoot for RB3 as a safer play

@@TheFantasyHeadliners yeah, ideally that's the case, but depends on whether I go hard on WRs the first few rounds or not. It's all situational

I don't think his volume is going to be like you think. They've got Adams, Meyers, Gallup, and 2 TEs that can make an impact. On top of that, they will probably be playing from behind, and will be passing a lot. I'd have to agree with Kyle, we just haven't seen him be that guy just yet. Maybe this year, but it's a risk...that's all.

You just bad at fantasy

@@Phobia92898 I won 3 of 4 leagues last year, and I had 2-3 good RB 1s and 2s on all of them with good 140+ target receivers as well, a good balanced out team is usually more conducive to success

@@chrispaul6522 playing vs janitors idc

Ignore this dude Chris ... He leaves some of the worst comments I've ever seen. Zero RB is the worst and If he wants to start comparing resumes on fantasy success he can let me know 🤣

I do not necessarily agree with you Chris but I don't disagree with you either,, it depends what format you're playing, is it a regular fantasy team with your friends or is it DraftKings besttball,,, what position are you drafting from,,,PPR OR HALF POINT... In a big tournament like best ball you have to mix it up,,. From hero rb to zero RB,,, it all comes down to what the format is

Wrong. 😂

@@alanrodriguez1902 Go listen to other channels so they can lead you astray 😁

Stop the Meat Riding 😅

@@Chico_84 it’s facts. I’ve been led astray but other channels for over decade until I stumbled upon headliners 2 years ago.

Not even close 💪🏽

I couldn’t have typed it better… A bell cow as your RB 3/4

I just don't see it. The Raiders by all accounts are going to be a bad offense, with a below average to bad QB, mediocre offensive coaching, and probably one of the slowest teams in the league. They are probably going to be in a lot of bad game scripts for an RB like White. I don't care if he gets 20 Carrie's a game if he isn't efficient, isn't scoring TDs, and isn't catching a lot of passes.

@@matthewdennis1739 respectfully, do you put that same logic towards davante Adams, he's going in the second round,, with that being said,, in my opinion fantasy football is all about volume,,, so yes I'll take davante Adams at 165 targets, just like I will take white at 20 carries,, I agree with you about the team not being that good it's a very similar team as last year, but he produced in the four games that he actually got a chance,,. I'm curious who do you take at that point in the draft that has that much upside,, I mean depending on the structure of your team and the format that you are playing,, myself personally I'm like 100 teams deep for dk best ball. .. so you are kind of forced to try different structures,, for the running back position you can only take Stevenson, Connor, so many times at that position of the draft,,, but hey different opinions is what makes this game fun,,,

@@animalcracker1140 I mean, I don't draft Adam's either; for similar reasons plus he's turning 32.

@@animalcracker1140I hope there’s a guy like you in every draft I’m in this year. Take them both

It’s difficult to be wrong about a player before the season even starts, but we will see! My opinion was well thought out and included statistical evidence. It appears you have a thought out rebuttal as well, so we will see who ends up being correct!

How many times did we see a backup get the starting role the following season, get excited, and end up disappointing?

@@TheFantasyHeadlinersdid they sign Alexandria

I just don't see it. The Raiders by all accounts are going to be a bad offense, with a below average to bad QB, mediocre offensive coaching, and probably one of the slowest teams in the league.

Who else do they have to run the ball. He's gonna be the feature back

Mattison.

Hope you enjoy it!

Any time!

Glad it was helpful!

You bet!

😂 Thanks!

How would him being your RB 3 or RB4 change anything?

That is such a great thought! I was not on Drake that year either. I completely forgot about him

I agree. We just haven't seen him be the man yet so it's very risky.

My dad has always been a huge Kaline fan! Unfortunately I didn’t get to see some special Tigers players until they moved out of Tiger Stadium.

😂 You convinced yourself! But if you can get him as your RB3 I don’t hate it as much. Not as my RB2 though.

@@TheFantasyHeadliners Yes, it all depends on what you're pairing him with, but the volume for him will definitely be there, and that's more than half the battle when looking for RBs.

Mediocre offense, below average QB play, average at best OL, a coach that loves slow pace. Not looking that appealing to me.

That’s the consensus ADP right not listed by multiple websites

He's 32 and has basically stayed healthy once in his entire career. He's still worth it at this ADP though to just throw him in the RB2 spot and ride him until he breaks down.

That’s the issues with WR heavy and not staying balanced to start

Conner, Warren, Spears are good targets if you start off light on RB because of the way the draft falls.

I do think Stevenson can reach the RB11-14 range this season. Probably sits in the RB13-15 range most often

👍

Not me!!!^

@@WesCOX-mm4oz why?

im targeting him 1st rd with the 11th pick in a full ppr league because I agree with you 😂😂😂

I was then they got a tough schedule he’ll probably still be top 7

I don’t think Mattison sucks. I think he was bad last year, but in his career has shown efficiency numbers well above last season. He is going to challenge White.

You got it!

Just like everywhere in sports.... People on the same outlets aren't going to agree.... That's why we lay out all the facts and you the viewer can choose which side you agree with more

Good thoughts!

Thanks!

For sure!

It doesn't matter what RB you draft them to be for you, if they're a bad pick they're a bad pick. If you're taking them as an RB3 in the 6th or 7th round that is taking away from your ability to fill other starting positions.

I would still rather take Warren a couple of rounds later

I really just don’t like how Kamara continues to get worse in efficiency each year and now Kendre Miller is ready to steal some touches

@@TheFantasyHeadliners he's the best option on that team and gets both rush and receiving attempts inside the green zone. Either way, even in hppr, he racks up 40-60 receiving yards weekly over 2-6 receptions and rushes for 60 yards. Never takes massive hits. I think he can maintain last year's production, and he was fantastic. Even if he falls apart, I'd love to start him early and find a backup for late season.

@@martin96002 Steal at RB4. If I could get him there, especially after getting my first two WRs, I would love it

Why on Earth would you draft 4 RBs in the first 7/8 rounds?

@@matthewdennis1739 round 12 pick, nobody else wanted him 🤷‍♂️

@@matthewdennis1739 2 flex spots. I've never had too many RBs, only too few 😂.

@@martin96002 wild. I don't see that being replicable. Yeah, of course I'd pick him up in the 12th but I'm thinking in most leagues he'll be gone by the 8th at latest. I've never seen a single player drop 4-5 whole rounds.

Here are some thoughts, especially on Hall: 3 MUST HAVE Running Backs To Draft in 2024 Fantasy Football - Fantasy Football Advice ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nxvP9mtx5RM.html

I'd take Bijan and Breece after Lamb and Tyreek but before Amon Ra, Chase, or JJ.

Thanks!

agree. his ADP of 86.9 is an awesome value pick.

And Mattison is not good, I got Zamir as my 4th RB

​@@gurkdoinworkis it though?

​@@JayRozay313not a winning strategy to take your RB4 by round 6/7/8.

I think I’m leaning towards veterans with established roles than rookies without them yet

How does whether he's your RB2 or RB3 change anything?

I doubt like White...but Swift is a mediocre pick.

We do in our draft guide

No fighting here! Just a difference of opinions

@@TheFantasyHeadliners This is actually helpful. Seeing you guys disagree and seeing why is very informative. You guys need to disagree more. A few segments debating your ranking would helpful. Seeing the thought processes and data would improve your viewers analytical skills. Keep up the the great work!

Yes!

RB3 is okay as long as you are strong at 1 and 2 with depth

What is the point of taking a risk on White in the 6th round? What is his upside? If things go perfectly for him what can he give you? An RB2 Performance? You're already drafting him as the RB21, how much higher do you think he can finish on a bad offense, with a bad QB, and a bad offensive line, that is probably going to be behind a lot, with a coach who wants to play slow... To my mind there's no reason to take a risk on White for minimal upside. Taking risk is necessary in fantasy football, but it has to be calculated risk.

@matthewdennis1739 You obviously know NOTHING about the Raiders. They have a top 5 WR in Adams, a really good WR2 in Jacoby Meyers & two TE's who would start or get significant playing time on any team in the league. One of those TE's could be rookie of the year, by the way. Plus, a top 10 offensive line. And a Coach who doesn't want to "play slow", he wants to run the ball!!! A RB 3 on a team like that, that you can pick in the 8-9th round is fantasy gold, not a fantasy risk. Get your facts straight.

@@SettingUStr8 Or maybe you're obviously a Raiders fan...because you're out of touch with reality. 1. Adams isn't a top-5 WR, this isn't two or three years ago. Last year he wasn't even in the top-20 in PFF grade among WR, and he was only 14th in the league in half-PPR scoring, and 15th in the league in receiving yards among WR last year, despite having basically no competition for targets. He was not in the top-12 in yards per route run, or targets per route run. There are no relevant statistics where Adams was a top-5 receiver last year. 2. Jacoby Meyers is a nice secondary target, but we aren't talking about some incredible talent here. We aren't talking about a Jaylen Waddle or a Davonte Smith, or even Tee Higgins or Chris Godwin. He was 41st in receiving yards. Despite having Adams and Meyers who you think are so great, last year the Raiders, even if you only count the games under Pierce, still were only 23rd in offensive scoring and 25th in offensive yardage. That's not an offense I'm super excited to invest in. 3. You're overrating Bowers and Mayer. Mayer did absolutely nothing last year. I can name probably 12 teams at least where he would not start or get significant playing time. He was the TE 32, and there's only 32 teams in the NFL. He also did not rank in the top-20 TE according to PFF grading. Bowers is a great talent, but he hasn't played an NFL snap, and the Raiders don't have a starting caliber QB, or an established offensive coach. 4. The Raiders do not have a top-10 offensive line. Among 7 different offensive line rankings their average score is 20th in the league. That's nowhere close to top-10. 5. My statements about pace are absolutely correct. After Antonio Pierce took over last year the Raiders were 29th in neutral pace. The new OC averaged 31st in pace over the past two years where he was calling plays. The Raiders were 30th in plays run last year. 6. You're not going to get Zamir White in the 8th or 9th round most likely. In that range, sure I'd take a chance on him here or there. His current ADP is around 76-80 on Fantasy Pros and 65 on Yahoo and ECR is 68, which places him firmly in the 6th round or earlier. I've seen him drop to the 7th sometimes, but never the 8th or 9th. He would definitely be a value in the 8th or 9th but you aren't going to see him there. In conclusion: The Raiders are a team with a middling at best offensive line, a coach and OC who both have never coached an offense that was better than bottom third of the league, an unclear QB situation where neither option is starter quality, and their best weapons are an aging star WR who is in decline and a rookie TE. Both the head coach and OC have been bottom of the league in pace and plays run. And to get access to this player you will most likely have to draft him in the 6th or 7th round. What exactly is there to be excited about in this offense? Will they improve over last year? Yeah, probably marginally. Do I think they are going to be in the top half of the league offensively? No. I'm not interested in a volume -based floor play when there are still better options around him with more upside on better offenses around where he will most likely be drafted.

@SettingUStr8 I know enough about the Raiders to know they suck. No matter how much talent you have on offense you have a QB issue. And tou can't play quick and run the ball, that's not playing quick. They will probably run one of the least amount of offensive plays on the season. Wake up my boy. It's the Raiders!!!! Go Chiefs!

Do we know for a fact Warren will get less carries than Najee? That would just be an assumption at this point, and we’ve already established that more touches doesn’t always mean more fantasy points

Perfect!

Good choice!

You're definitely not getting Warren in the double digit rounds. He's going in the 7th/8th.

@@matthewdennis1739 in a ten team league. In many mock drafts he is there at round ten. But I'll keep your post in mind if I see a trend of him moving up.

@@brianlarkin5717 Well, you have to figure in a 10 team league by round 10, twenty fewer players are off the board than in a 12 team league...so that makes sense.

Got his breakdowns in the draft guide already

You got it!

I did make some comments on how all these players could creep in ADP and how I’m not interested in them as my RB1, RB2, RB3, etc

Don’t hate that!

Well we're allowed to disagree 🤣

That’s what makes fantasy football so much fun ! Love you guys show so much !

Awesome! But I’m not sure they would this year

I’m just not sold on Minshew being the savior of the Raiders offense

@@TheFantasyHeadliners he is a hugh upgrade in the offense imho, watching now the last game of the Raiders at home against the Broncos last season. Zamir doing very well.

Redraft leagues will start pushing his ADP higher, absolutely

White will easily go in the 5th in redraft.

I would not waste a pick on White in the 7th, much less the 5th. Why waste a 7th round pick on an RB3, let alone one on a bad team?

@@matthewdennis1739 So you know for certain he will finish as a RB3? Got a real fn soothsayer over here. Smh

@@ryanwall1780 Maybe read before commenting? I was replying to the guy who literally said he took him as his RB3.

Not sure, the closer we get to the season more than likely

Hey! Love all the thoughts on today’s video. You seem really invested in White this year and it’s understandable. I still stand by all the evidence laid out and however it turns out, I know my process is going to be right far more than wrong. We will see what happens!

@@TheFantasyHeadliners I too have done a lot of research and I think he’ll be better than the 22 range easy… I can’t even list guys worse than him outside that… I definitely don’t think the guys listed like Moestert and Swift as better… with that work load, same situation and a much better line, you see a decline instead of improvement? I mean the whole argument here is he was a top 20 back in 4 games but oh well, it was 4 games… I even rewatched it looking for something of substance that didn’t amount to, it was just 4 games though, and for a community that loves extrapolating numbers… they went the other way… but their strength of schedule does scare, not always accurate though…

😂 Sometimes you just can’t help it

I hate that guy 😂

It’s Eminem…. The 🐐

​@@TheFantasyHeadlinersnailed it. PS, his album is reversible ;)

Wouldn’t be shocked if

Mattison for sure deserves a little more credit. Really only one bad season in efficiency.

The video isn’t meant to have bold takes, it’s meant to give info on players we seem to be getting a lot of questions on. Thanks for watching though!

@@TheFantasyHeadliners​​⁠weird I thought this video is called “3 MUST AVOID RUNNING BACKS”, not “low end RB2s that we think are kind of questionable”. You can make that case about anyone around that range.

I understand why for sure, I just don’t love it
