William Likely III News
LeGarrette Blount has been on a tear through his first four games of the season, with 352 yards and four touchdowns already. However, that's in no small part due to the New England offense having to fill the void left at quarterback by all-time great Tom Brady, who missed the first four weeks of the season to serve his suspension. With Brady back, things will no doubt change and it won't help Blount out. Per Mike Reiss, "[t]he Patriots enter the week using a designed run on 48 percent of their plays, which is the second-highest rate in the NFL behind the Dallas Cowboys (49 percent). Last year, with Brady playing every snap, they were at 35 percent. So look for that number to dip." And dip it no doubt will. Blount will continue to hold value as the lead running back on a potent New England offense, but he will almost certainly receive far fewer chances to get his yardage up in the way he has so far. Blount offers mid-range RB2 value this week as the Patriots look to get Brady back into the swing of things.
