In the midst of Adams&#8217; trade to the Las Vegas Raiders, Jones has averaged close to 4.5 catches, 6 targets, 48.5 receiving yards and 23 PPR points per game. It&#8217;s hard to ignore Jones as a good selection in Round 2, considering his impressive resume.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">When Aaron Jones is in the zone, he&#39;s UNSTOPPABLE! \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\ude80<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cw6J4qRbnE\">pic.twitter.com\/cw6J4qRbnE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; OutOfSightSports\ud83d\ude80\u2122\ufe0f (@OOSSports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OOSSports\/status\/1548483383059066881?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 17, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dynastynerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/aaronjones-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"See the source image\" width=\"809\" height=\"540\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Breece Hall (New York Jets)<\/h2>\n<p>The Jets selected the Iowa State RB at the top of Round 2, solidifying his status as the team\u2019s RB1 for the foreseeable future. Hall totaled over 4,500 yards from scrimmage, 50 touchdowns and 80 catches over three seasons in the college ranks.\u00a0Based on ESPN fantasy analyst Mike Clay\u2019s projections and how many touches Hall got last season, Hall should be top-15 compared to the rest of the other running backs in the league. He has a much better chance of performing more compared to his Jets running back colleagues Michael Carter and Tevin Coleman.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Breece Hall is the only New York Jet I want any part of in 2022 redraft fantasy football leagues. <\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DG9hzOAfL7\">pic.twitter.com\/DG9hzOAfL7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Jeff Bell (@4WhomJBellTolls) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/4WhomJBellTolls\/status\/1539635409617125378?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 22, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/thumbor\/vir4FTvk1447qT3edNKhWpTCrRM=\/0x0:2724x3800\/2420x1613\/filters:focal(1016x876:1450x1310)\/cdn.vox-cdn.com\/uploads\/chorus_image\/image\/67773573\/1284550576.0.jpg\" alt=\"See the source image\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Javonte Williams (Denver Broncos)<\/h2>\n<p>Williams has to compete with Melvin Gordon, who signed a one-year deal with the Broncos. His stats will be lowered due to the workload being shared between the two. However, Williams finished 13th in touches last season (246, 14.6 per game) and would be the favorite to take another step forward in the passing game after finishing as one of two rookie RBs inside the top-15 in route participation in 2021.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/media.wwltv.com\/assets\/KUSA\/images\/d0b4a4a0-22ac-4f6b-b407-dd04a6a202c3\/d0b4a4a0-22ac-4f6b-b407-dd04a6a202c3_1920x1080.jpg\" alt=\"See the source image\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Devin Singletary (Buffalo Bills)<\/h2>\n<p>Like Williams, Singletary has to compete with someone, newly drafted James Cook as the main running back. Despite that, Singletary did finish as the RB3 in PPR scoring over the final six weeks of the season \u2013 17 fantasy points per game. He gained the coaching staff\u2019s trust by earning 54-plus snaps to close out the season, the highest snap number Singletary saw all season. His numbers should indicate him as a good pick.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/bookitpicks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Devin-Singletary.jpg\" alt=\"See the source image\" width=\"756\" height=\"393\" \/><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Trade or Fade: 10 Boom or Bust Players with Questionable Upside (2022 Fantasy Football)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HR9UJFvqpIs?start=603&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>More NFL news:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/iis-half-point-ppr-better-than-full-ppr-which-is-better-scoring-system-for-nfl-fantasy-football\/\">Is Half Point PPR Better Than Full PPR?
