Anyone who understands the nature of running backs in fantasy football knows that value is all about volume. The more touches a runner has, the better.
Without Dez Bryant or Tony Romo for the foreseeable future, an uptick in carries for Joseph Randle is inevitable going forward. Dallas certainly aren’t going to put their trust in Brandon Weeden to go win them games right now, especially with the elite offensive line that the Cowboys flaunt.
Atlanta’s defense has been very generous to running backs through the first two games of the season, and has allowed more touchdowns, receptions and receiving YDs to running backs than any other team in the NFL. Randle makes for a great start in Week 3, so if you are an owner be sure to get him into your fantasy football lineups.
