BALLER MOVE: Don't Add
ROSTERED IN: 0% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders running back Ameer Abdullah rushed one time for one yard (lol) and caught all three of his targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in his team's loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 11. He's a depth piece for a backfield that has been remarkably inefficient and unproductive this season.

As is often the case with Raiders touchdowns, his was scored in garbage time when the game was essentially out of reach. There is very little upside to rostering and starting LV running backs outside of deeper leagues, and more often, you'd be better off going in different directions.
It's always best to chase upside in fantasy football. The only player with serious upside on that offense is tight end Brock Bowers, and that's likely simply because he's ridiculously talented. The quarterback situation isn't great either, and they have one of the worst offenses in the league.
He's a case of a handcuff to a handcuff where the true handcuff isn't worth rostering either. He likely won't have significant pass-catching role at any point, either.
