Alright, let’s talk about this fella, James Conner. Should you draft him? Well, that’s what everyone’s askin’, ain’t it? Folks keep jabberin’ on about fantasy football, and this Conner fella’s name keeps poppin’ up like a bad weed.
Now, I ain’t no expert, mind you. I don’t know nothin’ about fancy stats or all them numbers they throw around. But I got eyes, and I can see what’s what. They say this Conner boy gets the ball a lot. Like, a whole heap of times every game. Eighteen times, they say? That sounds like a lot to me. More times you get the ball, more chances you got to score, right? That’s just common sense.
And they talkin’ about somethin’ called “red zone touches.” Sounds fancy, but I reckon it just means he gets the ball close to the scorin’ line. That’s good, real good. Like gettin’ the best piece of pie at the church supper. You get in that red zone, you got a good chance of makin’ somethin’ happen. They say he’s one of the best at that, eighth in the whole league or somethin’. That’s mighty impressive, I tell ya.
- He gets the ball a lot.
- He gets the ball close to the end zone.
- That means he can score a lot of points.
Now, some folks are sayin’ he’s a good “RB2.” I ain’t got a clue what that means, but sounds like he’s a pretty good player, but maybe not the tippy-top best. They say he’s ranked somethin’ like 14th or 37th overall. Again, sounds pretty good to me. Not the best, but good enough to help your team win, I suppose.
They also sayin’ somethin’ about him bein’ a good pick for folks who wanna win the championship. That he’s got a good schedule later in the year. Now, that’s important, see? You don’t wanna be good at the start and then fall apart when it really matters. You wanna be strong at the end, like a good ol’ workhorse pullin’ the plow all day long. They say Conner’s that kinda player.
But here’s the thing, they’re also sayin’ his average points per game is somethin’ like 15. Is that good? I dunno. Sounds decent, I guess. They also say his average went up when some fella named Kyler Murray wasn’t playin’. So maybe that’s good, maybe it ain’t. All these numbers make my head spin.
And then there’s this “ADP” thing. They say it’s 55. What in tarnation does that mean? Sounds like a speed limit to me. But they sayin’ because of that number, maybe you should leave him be. Don’t draft him. See? That’s where it gets confusing. One minute he’s good, the next he ain’t. Makes an old lady like me wanna just sit down and have a cup of sweet tea.
So, should you draft him? Well, like I said, I ain’t no expert. But from what I gather, he’s a fella who gets the ball a lot, gets it close to the end zone, and can help you win. He ain’t the best of the best, maybe, but he’s solid. Sounds like a good ol’ dependable truck to me. Gets the job done, even if it ain’t flashy.
Now, if you’re one of them fancy folks with all the knowledge, maybe you got better information. But if you’re just a regular Joe like me, lookin’ for a decent player, sounds like James Conner might be worth a shot. Just don’t come cryin’ to me if he don’t work out. I ain’t no crystal ball reader, you hear?
Just remember this: he gets the ball, he gets close to scoring, and he’s got a good schedule at the end of the season. That’s what matters, right? And do your own thinkin’. Don’t let them fancy numbers and big words scare you off. Sometimes, you just gotta trust your gut. And my gut’s tellin’ me that this Conner fella might just be alright.
But at the end of the day, it’s your team and your choice. And if you got a bunch of experts tellin’ you different things, just close your eyes, spin around three times, and pick whoever your finger lands on. Might work just as good as all that fancy analysis, you know?
