BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: While Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. is in a committee with fellow RB Austin Ekeler, he's the clear lead back, out-touching Ekeler in both games and serving as the primary RB on early downs. He's also been involved in the passing game as well.
Robinson Jr. has averaged 16.25 PPR fantasy points per game in his two games so far and is averaging an impressive 5.97 yards per carry. Running backs in roles like Robinson Jr.'s (15 touches in Week 1, 18 in Week 2) must be in starting lineups as long as they are reasonably efficient.

Robinson Jr. has shown great elusiveness and tackle avoidance to go along with serviceable speed and solid pass-catching ability. This gives him great upside in PPR formats. He also has served as the primary goal-line back, though QB Jayden Daniels vultured two rushing touchdowns in the first game.
There are only 32 teams in the NFL, and a good chunk of them have nasty committee backfields that often rotate weeks in which certain backs lead in touches. This is unlikely to be the case with the Commanders. Lock Robinson Jr. into your starting lineups in all leagues.

Should I Trade Tyreek Hill? Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) has easily been one of the worst fantasy football draft picks of 2024. For a variety of reasons, he's just the WR30 in full-PPR scoring so far in 2024, which seems insane, considering that he's finished as the WR2, WR6, WR2, and WR2 over his last four seasons. […]
