BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3 with touchdown upside
ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has been a touchdown machine this season. Entering Week 14, Edwards has 10 touchdowns, which is tied for third-most in the NFL this season. The touchdowns alone have made the 28-year-old veteran an RB2 this season.
It's been a nice revival season for Edwards. Unfortunately, though, he is a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option every week moving forward. In games where he doesn't score a touchdown, his best fantasy finish was the RB35 in PPR formats back in Week 4. In where he scores at least one touchdown, the Ravens running back has four top-12 fantasy finishes.
Edwards has scored a touchdown in five of the past six games. But the recent snap share due to the emergence of Keaton Mitchell is worrisome. Over the past two weeks, the veteran played 38% of the team snaps in Week 11 and 27% in Week 12. At this point, he isn't getting the volume anymore, and you have to hope he gets a touchdown -- which he has been doing a great job of this season. He's a flex play in 12-plus team leagues in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Rams.
