players that's sitting there and who we might potentially pick up or if you're in a deeper League you need to know about some of these other players today we're looking at Emanuel Wilson running back of the Green Bay Packers who's in a very fascinating situation that could lend to opportunity sooner than expected if the dominoes fall his way and you may want to think about him we're going to talk about whether you need him or not for Fantasy Football the circumstances and everything else but before you do you need to click that subscribe button right now tap it with the finger on your phone

click that button stop missing out but Emanuel Wilson looking at him if there's a player that's sitting on the back end of a roster that you want to root for this may be a guy you want to last year in pre-season he had a big game on his father's anniversary of his passing and that was a huge huge moment for him on top of that from what I read and gather from him he's a rock solid dude and you always want to root for these guys on the back end of depth charts we're dudes this is our Disney Cinderella moment that we're watching on the TV this is our Disney plus right here so you always want to root for these guys on the back end of rosters who are from small schools he started off going to John C Smith University racked up 1,000 yards and 13 touchdowns then with the fort Valley State and then went ham in 2022 with 1200 yards 15 touchdowns averaging 6.8 yards per game on the ground also catching 20 balls that year 187 yards and two touchdowns showed that he can be used in the passing game of course small school Prospect but we are productive we had a 262 yard game to start off the season then we finished off the career with a 221 yard performance as well but when it came to NFL draft we didn't hear a name called 5'1 226 lbs then we get to his Pro Day ran a 4555 40 yard dash 7.29 three cone 439 shuttle 6.84 Ras score which is kind of like moderate to low when you look at the RAS score but still small school Prospect we're in the NFL 455 fast enough on Pro days you usually average 05 and add that to it to to make the pro days averaged out to the combine which doesn't usually always reflect the 40 yard dash so it could be legit 455 or more like the 462 they have here at playerprofiler.com but looking at the depth chart here it is very fascinating AJ Dylan is out for the season Marshon Lloyd's coming back from a hamstring he's banged up right now the start the year the team doesn't have total confidence in him that means odds are they're playing ride Josh Jacobs they're planning on giving him some opportunity Emanuel Wilson will probably get some run but it's probably going to be limited with Josh Jacobs there and they're going to ride Josh Jacobs more than likely they paid for him they brought him in more than likely they're going to use him they do like to use two running backs they do like to spell their starting running back we've seen them do that in the past Marshon Lloyd was nicked up in training camp with a hamstring he wasn't out there much we're coming back we thought he was is even going to go to IR well the beat Riders were saying that we didn't know really we just knew he was out for a bit Emanuel Wilson here looking good in pre-season looking good last year in preseason if something happens to Josh Jacobs early he's going to be stepping into a role you watch Emanuel Wilson on tape good Vision good between the tackles his feet sells everything cuz he moves laterally very well he's got very efficient footwork again not the flashiest running back if he was the flashiest running back they may not even drafted Marshon Lloyd they may have just rolled with him but good between the tackles you can get you yards after the contact his feet is phenomenal watch his feet on his highlights just go to his highlights or you can just watch the film or go watch a whole Packers game if you want right now if you're that kind of masochist watching the tape but Emanuel Wilson's got some feet he's got the sweet feet and you look at this Packers Run game from last year Aaron Jones AJ Dylan neither of them are going to be Totten to rock this this year we got some carries opened up obviously they want to use two running backs they've done that before I bet you they're not against riding Josh Jacobs but he's probably going to get some run Marshon Lloyd I bet you there's a ramp up time there Marshon Lloyd's got a lot of upside with his game with the pop and step from what we've seen at USC and everything else again with Marshon Lloyd though throughout his days at College he got banged up a lot he got banged up a lot at South Carolina he got banged up that's the thing about Marshon Lloyd he's jacked he's strapped he looks good but you get that Ferrari out of the garage it just leaks oil sometimes Marshon Lloyd has an injury history as well and he gets banged up a good bit and your best ability is availability Emanuel Wilson has that he had 14 carries last year 85 yards six point yards per carry he has good Vision good between the tackles he's a guy to root for he's definitely a guy to root for and you look at the pace of play this is a fast-paced team that moves the ball they move the ball and you want that running back that's playing for the Packers because they're going to get opportunities they're going to get some opportunity to catch the ball the Back Field they're going to be on the field in the goal line around the end zone cuz they're just going to be over there more and this team's getting better it's getting more potent and then you're watching him on Underdog ADP people starting to draft him up he's starting to get some notice so he's deserving of a video you guys asked for this video people are drafting him in round 18ish I bet 18ish 17ish round you may only have 16 17 18 rounds and you don't have to draft them right now but in those picks I'm going to say this it's all lottery tickets anyway and his value is going to really be up there inde dependent in the really start of the season if something happens with Josh Jacobs cuz I think Marshon Lloyd is on a ramp up coming off the men from that hamstring and Manuel Wilson's got some upside there and this is a play for deeper leagues 2 basic redraft leagues where you're drafting in the backyard drinking cools lights more than likely Emanuel Wilson will be too deep for you unless you just won a lottery ticket and he's your favorite lottery ticket and you just want a lottery ticket and I stress getting your favorite lottery tickets I really do you need to watch a lot of these un need videos go through my player lists pick out the lottery tickets you like and I suggest just slamming running backs with your lottery tickets and get maybe one lottery ticket wide receiver because the back end of your roster you do not want roster cloggers there you want guys that you can say eh I can drop them for this guy hot off the waivers right now I can go pick him up I can throw a little Fab at this guy right now while he's on the cheap because I think he's going to blow up next week I think he's going to get some opportunity everybody's quiet on him I want to slide him to my IR spot and I'm going to drop this dude to do that so you can make roster moves but if you got a guy there scoring you eight to 12 points per game but not winning you any games then that's just the roster clogger that's going to really prevent you from making moves to make your team better and shoot for upside upside wins your leagues roster cloggers with how the game spread out with the wide receivers being able to just go off any given moment because there's so many good wide receivers and the running backs getting hurt left and right you really need to shoot for upside and really be very strategic Emanuel Wilson could step into opportunity if something happens to Jacobs you don't want him because you got another lottery ticket your league is not that deep you're in a basic redraft League however I stress paying attention to him watch this back field because the Packers can move the ball they can move the ball get it down field that is something you want to pay attention to at least pay attention to Emanuel Wilson you want a Packers Lottery wide receiver you don't want Marshon Lloyd he's too expensive you got a deeper league go after him go get him do what you want to but there is some opportunity here he's a player to look at he's a guy with some upside in this offense I think anybody running The Rock in this offense has some upside let me know what you think in the comments below make sure to hit that subscribe button on the way out one thank you for watching catch you on the next video [Music]
