Nerdy Football Analysis: Teams are not required to file practice reports during the preseason, but we do know Powell missed the exhibition opener and some practices last week. The Jets do not figure to be all that competitive this season, but it could mean Powell and Forte emerge as PPR stars given how barren and/or unproven the depth chart is at receivers. Powell is a RB3 in PPR, while Forte should be considered a back-end RB4.
