My first five picks were Jamaal Charles, CJ Anderson, GRONK, Jordan Matthews, Brandin Cooks (terrible)
In the league I hated my draft, my team is coming together nicely with DeAndre Hopkins, Gurley, Doug Martin, and the Chris Johnson/Ellington duo.
(After Luck/Calvin/Ellington as my first three picks I landed Hopkins, Doug Martin, Chris Ivory, Gurley which so far have been my top guys)
I have been rostering Kniles Davis all year in one league, waiting for him to get his chance. I was shocked to see he didn't get a lot of action. At this point, I am going to give it another week and monitor but I thought he was by far the most talented guy other than Charles, Kelce and maybe Maclin on that entire offense.
On a fantasy forum I frequent, those who watched the chiefs game said Reid was quoted as saying Kniles will be the primary ball carrier next week. However, because Charizard is more similar to Charles, they wouldn't have to modify the game plan if they used him as the primary the rest of the way. Next week, when they do have time to gameplan, they will game plan around Kniles.
Whole lot of good internet discussion about Kniles vs. West, but if the above dialogue did occur, I'd marginally put my waiver claim in for Davis over West, though, tbh, I'm not feeling that great about either being better than a flex unless KC really reconsiders what they are doing on offense. Kind of wondering what it would take for Chance to get a shot a QB. Be interesting if Smith loses a week to injury if he loses his job the same way a 2nd time around...
