BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~113 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~168
ANALYSIS: Damien Harris found his way to Buffalo and could be on the precipice of breaking out as a top-18 running back in fantasy football. The Bills' 2023 backfield looks a lot like the Lions' 2022 backfield. In this comparison, Harris is Jamaal Williams, who scored 18 touchdowns and was the RB13 in PPR leagues.
But enough comps. Let's get to the data. People tend to forget that Harris was on pace for 225 touches, 1,046 rushing yards, and 13 touchdowns through his first four games last season. But a subsequent injury dropped him behind Rhamondre Stevenson on the depth chart. Now, Harris is primed to bounce back in a huge way with the Bills, who signed him to handle the bulk of their rushing duties while leaving James Cook in a pass-catching role.
Perhaps what's most exciting about this development is that the Bills want Josh Allen to run less, especially around the goal line. This translates to immediate goal-line production for Harris, who is just two years removed from a 15-touchdown campaign in 2021. Don't shy away from drafting Harris. He's currently priced way too low and you can capitalize on that.
