BALLER MOVE: Start in 8+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: It's been a bounce-back season for Philadelphia Eagles running back D'Andre Swift. He's currently the RB8 in PPR formats while averaging 14.5 fantasy points per game. Swift has also totaled 770 rush yards on 161 carries this season (4.78 yards carry). Despite scoring just 9.4 PPR last week against the Buffalo Bills, the Eagles running back should be started in most leagues this week against the San Francisco 49ers.
The matchup isn't the best for Swift, facing a 49ers defense that gives up the fourth-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. San Francisco is also allowing just four yards per carry, which is tied for the ninth-fewest this year. However, you should still be starting the Eagles running back -- even in a tough matchup.
Swift has seen at least 15 touches in 10 straight games and plays on one of the best offenses in the NFL. He has also played over 63% of the Eagles' offensive snaps in five straight games. Those two stats alone give the 24-year-old a high ceiling on any given week.
