I think Barks is 6-8 for redraft, 5-8 dynasty. I love him actually, and a video is coming on Barkley... he will be one of the next. But, I think the key in drafting Barkley this year is getting him as late as you can to account for setbacks and risk (if we are talking acquiring him early or trading for him in existing leagues). Setbacks can happen to anyone inside the knee, and we've seen players have that second surgery, then delays, then secrets and boom they never make it back. I seriously doubt that will happen to Barks but right now, this early in his rehab, we have to I think be somewhat careful, and 6-8 is careful yet still pretty respectable when you consider that's Adams, Taylor and Hill territory. Heck @swampies i think you have me in Barkley mode now.. gonna film it.

All you have to do is walk into the Penn State weight room and see all of the banners that have Barkley’s name on for the most weight for that exercise... just an amazing athlete and the will to be the best.
Yes @CoolHand ... the Barkley video is almost done. Make no mistake about it, I am a HUGE advocate of the Barkley bounce-back, as my video will explain. You and @swampies will be proud and in full support of my stance.
In my 10 team (sig) league the JoTay owner also has Henry, Montgomery and Ekeler. Maximum of 2 RBs can start per week. I tried to trade for his 1.02 last year.
Made a text inquiry on Taylor suggesting that he could really use my Hopkins. Mentioned Zeke and Stafford too. He has the 1.02 which is what I want most. I am afraid that Taylor became untouchable last Sunday while we were talking.
If you PM me I will give more details. Any trade probably would not happen until sometime around our Labor Day draft

He’s off to a solid start today in the playoffs, no one is untouchable but he’s cementing 1st round value.
