What's cracking big doaks? Welcome bike to the headquarters. Obviously there's fucking nowhere else I could possibly be right now.

I want to talk to y'all today. I want to preach today about these sophomore running backs because sophomore running backs, they're a fucking enigma in themselves.

That's not just pertaining to this year's crop in particular. That is the overall theme of sophomore running backs because as we know, running back production spikes within the first their rookie contract, right? The first two, three, four years of their playing time, which is why NFL teams don't want to sign them afterwards, right? Because their bodies bruised. They've already given you their elite production years.

We know that the age apex for a running back is 24 and a half for their fantasy football life.

Now, some of you all might have not known that. And that's a ridiculous fucking number because

you consider someone who's 25 to be relatively young. And I'm old as shit at 27. And that's a scary, scary fact knowing that NFL, I'm wiped out in the NFL.

They're coming off this rookie season where they went into an

with a lot of the sophomore running backs, you actually haven't seen them do it on the field yet, right? You're projecting into the future. You're hoping that they take that next step and

become elite for your fantasy team. However, with running backs in the way that fantasy football works

nowadays, you've got to pay up for running backs. You don't get, you know, you don't get that second

year running back who's exciting with tons of upside in the fourth or fifth round anymore, right?

That's where you get their, that's where you get their rookie year. That's where they're usually

drafted during their rookie year. You don't get that anymore. So I think we need to dive into

these sophomore running backs in particular, you know the Josh Jacobs, the Miles Sanders,

David Montgomery's, those guys and just break down how we see the whole world of fantasy playing out in relation to these

young kings if you guys are watching this on thursday we have a couple more exciting pieces of
