Explain Yourself! + Rankings Debates, UDK Releases! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 5/31

devastating. It's like, oh no, a running back tour is Achilles. My brain goes to he's dead to Mike. That's like how I view the Achilles injury like in marriage with your hatred for running back Achilles injuries. So it's funny that you've given the grace and maybe it's because he got back healthy last season. You've given him the grace like that you give nobody for running back Achilles injuries. I looked up the playoffs just because you were curious. You said you knew it was sub four.

It was 2.5. So he had 67 carries for 172 yards. And yet he was given at least 13 carries in every single one of those playoff games. Yeah, I mean, McVeigh kept giving him the ball. So he's going to get the opportunity. That's what my entire argument for Cam Acres is. I got a spoiler for you. Like a car? Spoiler? No, that was dumb. Oh, man. What? Can you hit a button? That was awful. All right. Oh, good.

I know you had a rough morning, but please don't do that again. Here's the spoiler. If he looks like that, he's not going to do that all year long. Like, Shama Vey's not giving him the ball. Like, you don't get, just because we saw it in the playoffs, like you had limited options. You got a couple games. If he runs for two points, whatever to carry in the regular season, you will not see camakers on the field beyond a few weeks. Because you just don't do that. You could also see, I mean, the Rams have been known to trade for.

players midseason, you know, if, if, Sony Michelle. Exactly. If, if Cam is. Right, but they traded for Sony. Right. And like, speaking of Sony Michelle, they did not bring him back. So, yeah, we could get to the death chart for the Rams in August. And I don't have the exact same sentiment that I have right now. But the current Rams death chart is Cam Acres, Darrell Henderson, who, I mean, they put him out there because he was like the last man standing and he's still produced.

But then it's our, you know, the draft winner favorite, Kyron Williams, who they took, I believe, in the fifth round, that this depth chart, the team has spoken with their actions saying, we still think that Cam Acres is going to be the dude. Yeah, I mean, I, Andy and I have him exactly the same spot, 32. Andy said he thinks he has him too low. I think I probably do, too. There's 32 teams, and he's the clear starter of a great offense. Exactly.

He suffered from some risk, but it could change. His best ball ADP of running back 16 is, I don't, I just don't want that. I don't want that risk. There are certain players, I think, in the UDK and in our projections that are until further notice players. And they're very dependent on what training camp looks like. And there's a number of guys like that. And I imagine even, you know, even the situation with Deonti Johnson, you know, dependent on.

what camp looks like, who's the quarterback. That's going to impact my ranking of Deonte in the inverse if pickets the starter and maybe. It will definitely impact mine if Trubisky's a starter. So I think Cam Acres is 100% in that category. That goes for J.K. Dobbins too. I mean, J.K. Dobbins, what is the rotation like in Baltimore compared to Gus Edwards and other pieces? There are Elijah Mitchell.

I mean, there are a number of running backs that are until further notice running backs. If you're drafting now, you're taking a bigger chance than when you have more knowledge because when you have more information in training camp, you can make a better decision and we don't have it. Yeah, I mean, J.K. Dobbins is an interesting name to throw out there because you compare that to Cam Acres. And it's like they are both the starter for good offenses.

And they're both coming off of injury, except J.K. Dobbins coming off a really clean ACL with a great timeline. I have Dobbins higher than Acres right now. I do as well. I guess I was just wondering. Yeah, Mr. 32. Yeah, I was just wondering, like, who's being drafted higher. Part of that's just injury. It's like we see running backs come back from ACLs. They don't have the same struggles. I mean, do any of us know whether, you know, like, is Marlon Meck the number one in Houston? Maybe. Right. I mean, he might be. I mean, you could.

You could go on a camp and Marlon Mac could look fine. We're also terrified of his Achilles and he could be dumb. You know, Deonti Foreman, he's the only one that we've seen kind of come back to higher volume and succeed. And that was years and years after. Yes, which is scary. Marlon Mac at least got on the field. Yeah, like Cammakers could have all the devotion to rehab in the world. And it might not matter. Agreed. And that's the hard part. But look, I don't have any, I don't have any problem really with where you ranked him at all. I think you're almost.

We're all low. Yeah. We're all low on Cam Acres. Yeah. Domins is 20. So he's four running back spots behind Acres. I would rather take that value personally. I would too. Okay.
