Pierre Camus' Bold Predictions - 2019 Fantasy Football

Here I go again, on my own. Going down the only road I've ever known. Like a drifter I was... OK let's get to the football part. As the first one to set out bold predictions for our staff, I want to proclaim that I don't just enjoy the bold predictions, I NEED them. Falling […]

Travis Homer Sees More Action

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer saw an increased workload in his second preseason game on Saturday against the Chargers. Homer carried the ball nine times for 27 yards, and while nothing he did was terribly impressive, it's good to see him getting a bump in chances. The sixth-rounder from this year's draft is a […]

J.D. McKissic Makes Nice Catch And Run

Seattle Seahawks running back J.D. McKissic was on the field for quite a few snaps in Saturday's game against the Chargers, and he regularly operated as the safety valve for backup quarterback Geno Smith. McKissic ended up struggling on the ground, only tallying 20 rushing yards on six carries, but he was able to break […]

Doug Martin Placed On IR

The Oakland Raiders have placed running back Doug Martin on IR Sunday and will move forward with Deandre Washington and Jalen Richard as backups to Josh Jacobs. Martin had just two carries in preseason game action while Washington made a strong case for himself shining in the team's first two exhibition games and will be the […]

C.J. Prosise Makes A Statement

Seattle Seahawks running back C.J. Prosise has struggled mightily to find his way in the NFL to this point. Prosise has constantly been injured or recovering from injuries, and they've ranged from a fractured scapula to an abdomen injury that required surgery last season. His coaches have questioned his toughness, and he's seen other running […]

Rashaad Penny Struggles But Scores

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny continues to struggle to run in the NFL. Facing mostly second- and third-stringers, Penny only tallied 22 yards on eight carries, but one of those was a second-effort from a couple yards out to score a touchdown. Penny did show plenty of drive by making two big second pushes […]

Chris Carson Dominates In Limited Carries

Seattle Seahawks starting running back Chris Carson only touched the ball three times on Saturday night against the Chargers, but when he did, he stomped over the defense. Carson finished with 23 yards on his three carries, averaging more than seven YPC. He was quickly replaced because the team already knows what they have in […]

Charcandrick West Scores Against Bears

Indianapolis Colts running back Charcandrick West was signed off the street, and in the third preseason game against the Chicago Bears he had 13 carries for 43 yards and one touchdown. He also added a little bit in the passing game with three catches for 27 yards. With running back D'Onta Foreman being recently waived, […]

Spencer Aguiar's 2019 PPR RB Projections and Rankings (Part One)

After a two-year span that saw running backs suffer diminishing value between 2016 and 2017, it appears as if the position is back on top. According to the ADP on Fantasypros.com, 15 of the top 30 players are ball carriers and being able to tier them off into the correct section will be vital for […]

Spencer Aguiar's 2019 PPR RB Projections and Rankings (Part Two)

I've already projected this year's quarterbacks and the first four tiers of running back. Now, it's time to continue by looking at the rest of the most fantasy-relevant running backs on draft day.

Phillip Lindsay Sees No Action On Saturday Evening

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay did not take action on Saturday night in the Broncos preseason game versus the Los Angeles Rams. Lindsay is coming off of preseason week two where he took reps with the second team and the backs behind him looked lackluster. The 2nd-year back seems to have the starting job […]

Matt Breida Hits Paydirt Saturday

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida recorded nine touches for 75 yards and a touchdown Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Breida toted the rock seven times for 44 yards and added two catches for 31 yards including a 20-yard touchdown from Jimmy Garoppolo in the first quarter. While Breida will share snaps with […]

Damarea Crockett Impressive In Limited Touches

Houston Texans running back Damarea Crockett had just four touches in Saturday's preseason loss to the Dallas Cowboys, but he had 27 rushing yards and five receiving yards on those touches. Crockett looked like a better back than Karan Higdon, but Higdon had nine more touches. Crockett could be a fantasy sleeper with Lamar Miller […]

Ronald Jones II Inconsistent Versus Browns

Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II started off hot and then fizzled out in Friday's matchup against Cleveland. He carried the ball twice for 12 yards to start and then lost yardage on his next two carries. He was targeted once on a screen but had the play blown up by the defense and was […]

Karan Higdon Leads Team In Carries Against Cowboys

Houston Texans running back Karan Higdon carried the ball a team-high 13 times for 28 yards in Saturday's preseason loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Higdon was the first back up after starter Lamar Miller went down with an ACL, which seems to suggest he's next in line in this Houston offense to see early down […]

Texans Believe Lamar Miller Tore ACL

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller (knee) is feared to have suffered a torn ACL in Saturday's preseason loss to the Dallas Cowboys. If confirmed, Miller's season is over before it began, and his Texans career is likely coming to a close as well. Duke Johnson will get more chances to run the ball, but the […]

Ty Montgomery Scores Touchdown Vs Saints

New York Jets running back Ty Montgomery carried the ball eight times for 21 yards and caught all four of his targets for 24 yards and a touchdown against the Saints on Saturday. Montgomery has been the Jets most productive running back so far with Le'Veon Bell not playing preseason games. The former wide receiver […]

Alvin Kamara Sees Four Touches On Saturday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball twice for four yards and added two catches for 29 yards in his team's third preseason game against the New York Jets on Saturday. Kamara played with the starters on their first drive of the game and was then removed for rest. The star running […]

Bilal Powell Getting Work With Starters

New York Jets running back Bilal Powell was getting snaps with the starters during the team's preseason game with the Saints on Saturday. Powell is clearly ahead of Elijah McGuire for the role of primary backup according to Manish Mehta. Starting running back Le'Veon Bell was not playing in the game but head coach Adam […]

Chase Edmonds Plays With A Purpose

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds put in a strong performance Saturday afternoon against the Vikings, rushing three times for 13 yards and hauling in both of his two targets for 24 yards. Edmonds continues to be a top handcuff to own in the fantasy world and would be a solid weekly starter if something […]

Mark Thompson Scores Preseason Touchdown

Detroit Lions running back Mark Thompson had eight carries for 34 yards and a touchdown along with one catch for five yards in Week 3 of the preseason against the Buffalo Bills. Thompson is battling for a roster spot and Friday night's outing will certainly help. However, Thompson falls below four other running backs and […]

Ty Johnson Shows Off Speed

Detroit Lions running back Ty Johnson continues to prove that he deserves the third spot on the Lions running back depth chart. Johnson rushed four times for just nine yards and had one catch for 11 yard against the Bills in Week 3 of preseason but he showed off his lethal speed. Johnson is a […]

Zach Zenner Likely To Fall Into Special Team Role

Detroit Lions running back Zach Zenner had just four carries for 21 yards in the Lions third preseason game against the Bills. It appears that Zenner will likely fall behind running back Ty Johnson on the depth chart, into the fourth position. Regardless, Zenner is a talented special team player and should still make the […]

Lamar Miller Carted Off Field

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller (knee) was carted off the field after a first-quarter hit in Saturday's preseason game against the Dallas Cowboys. Miller hadn't played in a preseason game before this one. A Pro Bowler last year, Miller is expected to see the bulk of Houston's offensive touches this year with Duke Johnson coming […]

George Kittle Out For Saturday's Preseason Game

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (calf) will not play Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Kittle suffered a calf injury a couple weeks ago but has been practicing and assured his fantasy enthusiasts he’ll be ready for Week 1. Kittle deserves top-3 tight end consideration in all leagues this season. Other notable inactives […]

Dalvin Cook Dazzles in Limited Work

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook rushed twice for 88 yards and one touchdown in the third preseason game Saturday. On one of his rushes, he started left and cut back to the right, breaking tackles on his way to an 85-yard touchdown run. Cook is showing he's all the way back from his torn […]

David Johnson Gets More Work Saturday

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson had nine carries for 34 yards and also caught both of his targets for seven yards in the passing game in Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings. Johnson should be able to bounce back in head coach Kliff Kingsbury's offense with rookie quarterback Kyler Murray leading the charge. The […]

C.J. Anderson Productive In Short Outing

Detroit Lions running back C.J. Anderson was able to gather 24 yards on eight rushing attempts and 17 yards on two catches during the Lions third preseason game against the Bills. Anderson has proven that he is solid running back but his touches this season are currently unpredictable. If the Lions decide to let Kerryon […]

Tra Carson Ahead Of Dexter Williams

Green Bay Packers running back Tra Carson is ahead of rookie Dexter Williams on the depth chart because of his work in pass protection, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Williams will have a chance to climb the depth chart as the season wears on, but to begin he's behind Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams and […]
