(29,346 posts)Again, I don't find the scenario particularly plausible.
Yes, if you own an obscure RB3 and you know that he's going to get fed the ball on the goal line and potentially score a bunch of TDs and you can reasonably be sure that you'll be the only player who will pick him, then yes, you have an advantage.
But how does one know all this? Aside from all the random and completely unpredictable stuff one would have to know in advance (how do we know there will be goal-line opportunities? how do you know the obscure running back will convert?) there is the even bigger issue of how you will arrange for that player to even be on the field? (That decision isn't in Tom Brady's hands, so I guess you'll also be bribing backups to pretend to be hurt or offensive coordinators to risk losing their jobs by putting an inferior player in during a crucial situation.)
