BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: It had been five games in a row for Pittsburgh Steelers' RB1 Najee Harris failing to score RB1-level fantasy points. He broke for that last Sunday, though, hitting 20+ PPR points for the first time since W11 when he finished as the top-3 rusher of that slate. This, though, is a post about teammate Jaylen Warren.
While Harris rushed the rock 22 times and caught just two passes while scoring a receiving TD (...) rookie RB Warren rushed the ball 12 times himself for 76 yards (massive 6.3 YPC) while catching all three targets he got at Baltimore for 22 yards on the day.
Of course, as long as Harris is healthy he will keep getting the bulkiest of workloads in the Steelers backfield. That might change next weekend (if only for a game before next season) as the Steelers are already eliminated from the playoffs and they might want to rest (or better said, not risk a dumb injury) Harris and preserve him as much as possible while giving reps to their rook.
Don't lose your head chasing Warren and only start him in deeper formats if Pittsburgh doesn't truly announce a change of the guard ahead of W18, but keep an eye on this whole story because Warren can be the WW pick of the week if all things go his way this upcoming weekend.
