Ware done for the season?
- Thread starter mudloggerone
- Start date
Okay y'all aren't in the mood to move White up how far does Hunt leap if this is true?
Update:
Spencer Ware has been diagnosed with a torn PCL and will likely need season-ending surgery.
Chiefs head athletic trainer Rick Burkholder announced the diagnosis on Sunday. Ware is also dealing with damage to his LCL. He'll get a second opinion, but in all likelihood, Ware will go under the knife. Third-round rookie Kareem Hunt will now proceed as the team's unquestioned workhorse and could finish the year in the RB1 conversation if all goes right.

Spiller sux.. West isn't much better. Hunt will be Reid's workhorse and that role is $$$!
There was a chance, though slim, that Hunt was going to win the job before the injury. I agree with Tekie in that he should be the first rookie drafted. This kid has looked pretty darn good on the field.
While I agree spiller has looked good, Andy has already said Hunt will be the fill in for Ware. Hunt is a three down back too, so not sure where Spiller or West will find time.I wouldn't sell the farm for Hunt just yet.
Spiller has looked pretty darn good and West is no slouch.
Certainly looks like he'll be the first rookie off the boards, though, which is good because that leaves Cook for ME.

I agree with you. Think Cook should come of the board before Hunt.Certainly looks like he'll be the first rookie off the boards, though, which is good because that leaves Cook for ME.
Shoe sure? You'd better sleep on that, for two nights.

Why? Talent alone?
Hunt's situation is premium. Literally no other RB talent around him, playing in an offense that gives the RB tons of action. Hunt could have 40+ catches.

You just want Cook for yourselfShoe sure?
trying to get me to draft Hunt so you can have Cook.

I see Cook and Hunt pretty damn even actually. Both are solid in run game and passing game, both have established Qbs, and both have pretty solid O-lines, and Wrs to take pressure off. In fact both have Tes that are capable as well.
The only reason I might take Hunt over Cook, is Cook's college history of putting the ball on the ground.

I would never do such a thing, would I?
Yeah he did put it on the ground in the end zone an awful lot after he scored touchdowns.

After watching Minny vs SF, I'm going all-in on Hunt for 1st rookie off the boards.
Minnesota offensive line continues to be dreadful despite rumors to the opposite. Latavious Murray and Jerick McKinnon are legitimate threats to steal touches and it looks as though Minnesota will be playing from a negative game script most of the season.
Kansas City has a history of great running backs...Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, Jamaal Charles, Spencer Ware, and never seem to miss a beat when one of them goes down. They even made Knile Davis look good.

I think you can't go wrong with either one of them.

I think you can go wrong with Cook a heck of a lot easier than with Hunt.

Took Hunt at 3.1 last night in a local 12 man .5 ppr $$$ league.. got a few surprised looks from league mates. Dalvin was already gone, Fournette, Lamar Miller and Mcaffrey went right after my pick. I'm OK with where I got him.

Well I have a draft in 50 min. It's a 8 man keeper league and I'm taking Hunt with the 1st pick. Leaving Cook to go 2nd. It's a ppr league
Sigh...I hate you
