I'm playing in a league where you can have two keepers, so I've had Bell for three seasons now. Last season, when it was certain he would skip the whole year, all the good RBs were already gone I kept him anyways hoping he would land with the Jets.
That wasn't my question. Was simply wondering where he ranked in 2016 and 2017 nonetheless I love his situation with the Jets especially FF wise. With Sam being an extremely young QB, Le'Veon will without question become our focal point of our entire offensive attack and after a years worth of rest I feel he'll not only be our focal point but also rejuvenated and hungry to finally lead the way without Roethlisberger/Brown. At only 27 years of age I feel we're on the verge of watching Curtis Martin x2 in other words an absolute animal is about to be released and by far imo the best receiving RB within the game today fantasy wise his numbers will shoot off the charts.
Bell has never scored more than 11 TDs in a single season. He is going to be a good fantasy player, but your bias is kicking into over drive. He will be quite good in ppr leagues for sure.
Over drive and bias? He's ranked All-Time top one or two in terms of yards per scrimmage per game. He's going to be a good fantasy player? I'll agree to disagree he's going to be a top tier and great one. Especially with his ability to record 75-85 receptions on a yearly basis. He's going to feast as a Jet and as our clear cut #1 focal point he could shatter 11 TD's but when it comes to yards per game; he's one of the best to ever do it. I was in love with Le'Veon months before he became a Jet this isn't biased talk but instead talk from someone who's craved an impactful and elite RB dating back to those Penny and the Jets days with #28 feasting every year.
Yards are good in fantasy and he will get his receptions. I said he would be good. I don't foresee him hitting any of his career bests in any statistical category. I smell 1,150 rushing yards, 60 receptions for 500 yards. TDs are harder to predict. If I had to guess, he will hit pay dirt 8-10 times. Those are good numbers. Oline isn't as good, no Antonio Brown, no Big Ben (Darnold is good, but he ain't on that level yet)
He'll be a back-end R1/early Round 2 pick for sure. If I was in a position to take him on the snake back in R2, I'm doing it.
