BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-Plus Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Eagles running back D'Andre Swift has struggled to move the ball over the past two games. Last week against the Dallas Cowboys, he had 11 carries for 39 yards, which was an improvement over the previous contest against the 49ers. In that contest, Swift had six carries for 13 yards and caught two passes for seven yards.
Swift had a pair of huge games early in the season, but his production hasn't been great since then. Over the past 10 games, Swift is averaging 13.3 carries for 51.4 rushing yards per game plus 3.1 receptions for 19.4 yards.
This week, Swift faces the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle allows 123.4 rushing yards per game, the 10th-most in the NFL. That's a big change from the past two opponents, with the 49ers allowing the fewest rushing yards and Dallas allowing the 13th-fewest.
There's definitely more upside for Swift this week than there's been in the last couple of games, but it's hard to view him as more than a low-range RB2 play this week due to the low floor that he's displayed over the past two weeks as well as the fact that he hasn't hit his ceiling since Week 3.
