BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Joe Mixon feels like a player you often question yourself about starting or sitting. At the end of the day, he's the starting running back getting most of the volume on an elite Bengals offense that brings weekly big-game upside. You can see in our Week 11 fantasy football rankings that Mixon is ranked #32 overall and RB16 (#16 overall RB) for the week going up against a strong Ravens defense.
Baltimore is just middle of the pack this year against the run, allowing 4.1 yards per rush attempt to opponents. But they do an excellent job on running backs once they reach the red zone, allowing just 0.4 rushing touchdowns per game. Joe Mixon still routinely gets 70-75% of the running back snaps every game and has at least 14 touches in every game this season. The Ravens will be stingy, but Mixon can get to RB2 status this week on volume.
