The New York Jets have put up veteran running back Matt Forte on the trading block in a clear effort to give the starting job to backup Bilal Powell. With Powell having more than shown he is capable of big PPR numbers, Forte is just taking up space and at a high salary clip. It is unlikely the Jets will find a trade partner and so cutting Forte is becoming a realistic scenario that would all of a sudden put Powell right there as a top RB 2 in PPR formats and a low-end RB 2 in standard. This is a situation that bears close watching and trying to swipe Powell from an unsuspecting owner would be a great idea.
