3rd down back?
Watching a FF podcast where a non-chiefs fan suggested Pachecco might be a bust for the FF season.
Current sentiment is that Pachecco killed the second half of the season and playoffs last season, and that he'll see more touches and 3rd down responsibilities now that McKinnon is gone. In the video they argue that the Chiefs RB room is weak after Pachecco, that there's nothing stopping us from making another acquisition for a 3rd down back to support our run game. A few questions come to mind: 1) Do we trust Pachecco as our 3rd down back? 2) Should we add another RB? 3) Who, if anyone, would be available? ...thoughts? |

I wonder if there's a UFL RB that they're looking at?

CEH up the middle is our cheat code.

CEH IS our 3rd down back.

CEH is a decent 2nd back, but there's obvious room for improvement.
Our roster is so set that talking heads are just looking for a hole to fill. I'd agree that an addition to RB is about the only addition I could imagine after DL. |

I don't understand the OP.
They think he's going to be a "bust", but they also think he's going to get more opportunities with McKinnon gone? That doesn't add up. |

They're saying per his current draft position he's overrated, which is higher this year bc he played well end of last season and is expected to get 3rd down touches. They're saying "bust" bc he might not get as many points as other 2nd round FF prospects in the same range. They're suggesting this might be the case bc he's never had 3rd down responsibilities in KC and its only assumed that he will, currently. They wonder if there's a 3rd down back on our roster, or that we might add to our roster, that would diminish Pachecco's return as a Fantasy Football pick. |

My point is that FF is all about opportunity, so if you think he's going to get those 3rd down snaps too, he's unlikely to bust. |

Anyone out there we could target in a decent trade to bolster our RB room?
What happens if Pachecco goes down, I'm not sure I'd be happy with CEH as our every down back. |
