Browns Trading Carlos Hyde to the Jaguars for a 5th Round Pick

If I was a betting man, I'd say the NFL record holder for catches will be just fine. 

I would agree given that, overall,  he's only a bit more than a catch a game below his four year average at this point. 

 

But the contrast of the first three games vs. last three games is stark to me:

 

20/278 vs. 11/114

 

6.6 catches per game vs. 3.6 catches per game. I attribute that to his move to the outside and defenses flattening out the curve on Mayfield. Assuming Cleveland can readjust, Landry should get back on track. But the trend isn't in his favor at the moment. If it continues, I can see him getting demonstrably upset like he is apt to do at times.

Actually Hyde is only averaging 3.4 yards per carry while Chubb is averaging 10.8 and has shown himself to be very explosive in his limited opportunities. 

Chubb only averages 2.5 carries/game. He’s never had more than 3. I think Dorsey is finally forcing Hue to use him by doing this.

I took fournette in fantasy this year thinking "Well., Marrone will run it with him 8532 times this year."
<_<

 

 

I did the same thing.  Then drafted Hyde to be my 3rd RB/Flex.  When Fournette got hurt, I picked up Yeldon.  So now I have 3 Jags RBs on my roster.

 

On top of that, every player on my bench other than the injured Fournette is on a bye this week so I was planning on going with Yeldon & Hyde.  Now I probably have to drop a decent player in order to field a complete team this week as I assume Hyde will be inactive or barely play.  Someone drafted Chubb and has managed to stash him all year so he's not an option. 

 

To make matters even worse, I play my wife this week for the household bragging rights.  :wallbash:

The question is, do I start Chubb over a slightly gimpy Edelman (non PPR league)?

 

I'm just worried idiot Hue Jackson will try to break him in gently and he'll end up with 12 carries.

They play Tampa who has a good run D and horrific pass D so that could be a factor

Just a matter of time before Landry demands a trade, too. 

 

No he wont. The Browns are gonna be a very good team, especially with Baker at QB. I bet anything Landry will not demand a trade this year.

If Hyde is the RB2 then who is RB1?

 

Hyde is RB2 but he becomes RB1 until Fournette is healthy. Duh

They let him go in conference for a 5th when the Eagles are going begging for an RB. They could have gotten more and traded him to the NFC

Eagles are looking for an explosive RB with speed. Hyde is a power back. I’m sure if they could have gotten more for him out there they would have.
