BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 7% owned on Fleaflicker
ANALYSIS: Star Wars reference aside, Shaun Draughn is looking like the back to own in San Francisco. I mentioned Draughn last week as he entered his week 10 bye coming off a 20 touch, 96 yard performance in his first appearance as a San Francisco 49er. Draughn had a stranglehold on the running back job headed into the bye, and there are no indications that his status has changed during the week off. The only true threat to Draughn is the pending health of Carlos Hyde, San Fran's normal starting running back. With the Niners' season essentially over, I can see a situation where Hyde is held out for the remainder of the year. San Francisco has a tough schedule against the run for the next few weeks, so you may not see immediate return out of Draughn, but they face two of the worst run defenses in week's 14 and 16 (Cleveland and Detroit respectively) so he may be a valuable asset come fantasy playoff time.
