Fantasy Football 2024: Insight on Rhamondre Stevenson’s Value
Transcript
00:00Let's switch now to Running Back Joe, and I have to be transparent here, as I know you
00:08to be a Patriots fan, let's put that out there first before we reveal your value play at
00:15Running Back.
00:16Joe?
00:17Well, as a Patriots fan, if I'm still recommending somebody to you, it tells you that I really
00:21must believe in the player because I have a lot of issues with this current situation
00:25of the Patriots the last few years.
00:28But again, I want to dial it back a little bit.
00:31All the way to 2022, when Ramondre Stevenson was RB11.
00:36That's right.
00:37RB11.
00:38If you look where he's going right now, he's going RB21.
00:40That's a big difference.
00:43And in that 2022 season, where they actually had an offensive coordinator, it wasn't a
00:46bunch of lunatics running the asylum like last year, 210 attempts, 1,000 yards rushing,
00:55five rushing touchdowns, but also 69 receptions for 420 yards.
01:00Let's not forget that Ramondre Stevenson can be a third down back.
01:04And also, he got the bag this offseason.
01:06They paid him.
01:07Now, do I like paying running backs?
01:08No.
01:09No, I don't.
01:10I think it's a terrible idea as a Patriots fan, but as a fantasy investor, I know what
01:14that means, which is this is our guy.
01:17He's the focal point in the offense as we continue to figure out quarterback play.
01:21And Jacoby Brissett is a capable quarterback to lead you for as long as he has to.
01:25He showed you not that long ago in Cleveland, probably the best quarterback play they've
01:29had in the last four years in Cleveland was Jacoby Brissett going out there managing games,
01:33winning games.
01:34So, Ramondre Stevenson as RB20, a great value.
01:38I think he can absolutely finish as RB12 potentially this year.
01:42And once again, that's how you win leagues.
01:45Finding wide receiver threes who play like twos, twos who can play like ones, and same
01:49thing at the running back position.
01:50Can you find somebody who's going to outperform their ADP and jump a tier?
01:53I think Ramondre is one of those guys.
