BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1/2
ANALYSIS: James Conner has been exactly what fantasy managers envisioned when they drafted him. He's sixth in the NFL in carries (37), ninth in yards (172), and tied for second in touchdowns (two). Even better, he has every running back carry for Arizona in the red zone.

Week 3 might be a case of an unstoppable force versus an immovable object. In 2023, the Detroit Lions were the best defense against fantasy football running backs. They surrendered the fewest rushing yards and didn't let a running back catch a touchdown.
They're continuing their dominance into the new season, allowing the fifth-fewest rushing yards to the position (106) and just four catches for nine yards.
Conner is still a locked-in starter for fantasy football lineups on Sunday, but he may be less efficient than we've witnessed two weeks into the young season.
