BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 51% owned in Fleaflicker <-- yes I cheated a smidge to include him.
ANALYSIS: If James White is somehow still available in PPR leagues you need to get him. Even if standard though, he has proven that he is trusted by Tom Brady in the passing attack and is a reliable weapon for them. Danny Amendola went down and even without that, White is just becoming a key part of this offense. He caught seven of his eight targets for 71 yards and a touchdown where he scampered down the left side of the field just beating defenders on their angle pursuits. He has the trust of Brady and Belichick to be the passing down back. White has 27 targets in his past three games. That's really good.
With LeGarrette Blount out for the year and Brandon Bolden (39% owned)/Joey Iosefa (0% owned) grinding out the dirty work, White is the finesse and hurry up back. The Pats are reportedly signing Steven Jackson this week, but this shouldn't cut into White at all. While the Pats probably won't be falling behind like they were in Philly anytime soon, White will still see usage, just don't count on a game like the one against the Eagles for the rest of the way. As he just showed though, he can still certainly provide you with value. The Pats take on the Jets next and then finish the regular season against the Dolphins. The Jets are never beaten with the plodder, so James White should have many opportunities working out of the backfield on wheel routes and screen passes.
