BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
OWNED IN: 10% Owned on Fleaflicker
ANALYSIS: Matt Forte is reportedly dealing with an MCL injury, meaning Langford becomes the next man up. Langford was an elusive back in college who showed some good spurts of vision and had some receiving skills to boot. In my notes, I felt like he wasn't special in the burst department and had him penned as a committee type of back more than a starter - but the Bears don't have anyone worth putting him into a committee with, making him the likely full-time back. Langford will be the most sought after running back this week and rightfully so - anyone taking up Matt Forte's workload is a potential RB1. He should be owned in all leagues.
For good measure, here's a play from Langford's college days showing some of his better skills in action:
