This is a fair assessment of things, Campbell is a ground n pound kinda coach so this guy will surely start getting touches sooner than later

Why waste the hits on Gibbs in a game they dominated from the start?

It's absolutely wrecking my fantasy football teams. I've written Gibbs off as the Lions version of CEH at this point. I can't trade him for anything decent at all. Gonna be an L of a fantasy season for your boy VK and your boy VK does not like taking Ls.

As we know, continually progressing in the NFL isn’t easy. They seem to be doing so. They could have just as easily whiffed those picks and be floundering. We’ve been there. It happens. |

i think that's probably part of it. the length of an NFL season bites a lot of rookie RBs historically. And Gibbs is not a big man. Saving him for the playoffs is probably a pretty good idea. And it allows him to learn how to pass-pro at the NFL level at a slower pace, and anything else they want to ease him into over the next 10 weeks or whatever.

He's a complete bust and I've lost my buy-ins in the leagues I took him 2nd round in. They are PPRs, Mr. Meat. I wanted those sweet, sweet receptions. Instead, he's just a gimmick player they bring in from time to time to give the normal starter a blow.
That Achane guy on the Dolphins is what Gibbs was purported to be in the NFL draft. Achane is the truth, Mr. Meat. |

Who knows, maybe they did. So far it looks like they aren't missing Carter much. 11 sacks and allowing just 2.5 yards/play so far.

Gibbs is the exact type of RB you overdraft a little when your QB is a guy like Goff.
The Lions are setting up to be a consistent threat in the NFC. Tons of talent. |

It's actually really smart. Rookies have a hard time adjusting to the NFL bc they only play 13 games at most in college. The league is faster, stronger and longer than college. The Lions are going to the playoffs so it's gonna be at least 18 games.
They don't need him. Bring him up slowly and use him in December and January.
