    Could Bucs running back Doug Martin could be headed into a RBBC in 2014?

    Lots of RBBC claims out there (as I state in the "fantasy take" of this above news post).. and as I state in my fantasy take in the above news post, if healthy, Martin sees more than enough touches to be worth this 2.08-2.12 ADP. Some are even finding him fall to the 3rd-round, which is no risk territory.Thoughts?

    Im not worried about any of those guys taking away from Dmarts production. I have no issue with these other guys coming in to preserve his health.

    He will get at least 70% of the touches out of the backfield. Thats plenty.

    As long as he hold goal line back status he should be a steal.  Why is it the new coaches act like he needed help on 3rd down?  To me he was a very solid pass catcher.
    I don't trust Adam Schefter and neither should you!!!

    I'm not worried about Martin, he will out produce Sims and James. He's a great value

    My favorite Martin will be fine! No worries here as he's my #1 comeback player this year!
    My league is a non PPR 12 person league having a roster of 19 players each. Active roster includes 1Qb 2Rb's 3Wr's 1Te 1K 1Def. Two weeks before draft we cut the roster down to 9 keepers. My team as of now:
    QB Nick Foles, Russell Wilson, Josh McCown
    RB Lamar Miller, Shane Vereen, Zac Stacy, Cierre Wood
    WR AJ Green, Julio Jones, Josh Gordon, Rueben Randle, Kenny Stills
    TE Z Ertz, M. Bennett, Delanie Walker
    DEF Kansas City, Cleveland
    K Steven Hauschka

    If we are to believe what we're hearing out of Tampa, Martin won't get 70% of the touches going forward.  They want to keep Martin fresher as he slowed down late in the season in 2012.  I would imagine he gets closer to 60% of the touches with Sims and others getting the balance.  If that keeps Martin fresher, he could very well produce better numbers than we expect but it also gives Sims and others some decent play as well.
