BALLER MOVE: Stash in 14-16+ Team Leagues (or Jamaal Charles handcuff)
OWNED IN: 1% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: We're going really deep here. The running back market is once again thin so we're going to have do some speculating. Roy Helu Jr. makes an interesting option considering the Latavius Murray injury/fumble benching in the second half, but I'm not buying it. Helu saw the ball once before that series.
Which takes us to Charcandrick West. What a name. The UDFA from Abilene Christian University made his NFL debut Sunday, rushing five times for 17 yards. He also added a four yard catch. The numbers aren't great but the key development is he rotated with Jamaal Charles in the second half, not Knile Davis.
If the rumors are true that West has surpassed Davis on the KC depth chart, West becomes an instant commodity. His pass-catching skills are likely what have helped him see playing time over Davis, but Davis makes for the better between the tackles option. This makes it difficult to gauge how the backfield would operate sans Charles, but it's a development to keep track of. If you're desperate for RB opportunities in a 14 team league or larger, West is a sleeper to keep an eye on.
