BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leauges
OWNED IN: 47% owned on Fleaflicker
ANALYSIS: C.J. Anderson was one of the few Broncos to have a nice game this past Sunday. He rushed 9 times for 29 yards, but more importantly he had 8 receptions for 86 yards. That's a nice running back to own in all formats, but especially nice for all of you in PPR formats.
But wait Anderson owners... it gets better! You might find yourself asking how can it possibly get better when I plucked this guy off the waiver for very little? Well, I'm here to tell you it gets even sweeter. You see, Montee Ball had returned and was largely expected to take back his lead back role. However, Ball could do nothing when he was on the field and then he re-injured his groin. With both Ronnie Hillman and most likely Ball out for a while, look for Anderson to continue to be the lead back for the Broncos.
Being the lead back for a team that is one of the top scorers in the NFL is always juicy, and the same should hold true for Anderson. Heck, even when his team couldn't score much he found a way to get your fantasy team a ton of points. For those that were curious, I'd pick up Anderson before Mason, though it depends on the extent of Ball's injury and time on the shelf.
