Deji Karim

cbssports.com,
Jaguars RB Deji Karim saw his first offensive touches of the season in Week 5 at Buffalo, getting to play as Maurice Jones-Drew's primary backup. He rushed 15 times for 70 yards including several carries in the second half when Jones-Drew had to leave the game after spraining his wrist. Jones-Drew did return to the game, however.

Fantasy Analysis
Karim, usually just a kick returner, got a chance to play due to the fact that Rashad Jennings was out due to injury. However, this performance may buy him a chance to see more opportunities down the line. As long as Jones-Drew remains healthy, we wouldn't recommend activating the unproven Karim in any format.
 
The fact that Mills is even scouting this player is one of the reasons he leads his Division in SOFFL (Sports Outlaw Fantasy Football league). :clap:
 
Input I remember from the pre-season is he's a freakish athlete who makes moves on the field like he's in a video game. I believe he was the preferred handcuff until he was injured. Now somewhat healthy it appears the preseason hype on this kid is pretty accurate. MJD owners should probably clear a spot for him, IMO.

He was all the rage in pre-season. AS Rammy says. I think he is the heir apparant if MJD goes down, not Jennings. If you are a MJD owner, or you get pts for return yards, you must have this guy imo
 
He is a definitely an upside pick-up. But the question is, who do you drop?

Would you drop someone like Bernard Scott for him?
Does he have more value then someone like Mike Bell?
 
My only droppable options are Steve Johnson and possibly Sam Bradford. But that is a risk with my only other option at QB is the ailing Stafford. Is it worth it? I have Flacco as my #1 QB.
 
If Bradford is your backup no way is it worth it. Steve Johnson may be expendable depending on your WR's.
 
Miles Austin, Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Bowe, Johnny Knox, Mike Thomas, Steve Johnson (whom I just picked up on waivers this week)
