NFL Draft 32 for 32 - New York Giants Outlook

If you look in the dictionary for the definition of a team with no direction you will find the New York Giants. Dating back to last year's draft where the team declined to find Eli Manning's successor in a loaded QB class, the Giants appear to be stuck in the mud. Sure, they hit it […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers Outlook

Another team at the top of this draft under new management is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and new HC Bruce Arians. He will be bringing with him a pedigree that ensures that this offense will be one to keep an eye on in 2019. The defense will potentially be suspect, especially in the tough NFC […]

Tevin Coleman Could Be Short-Yardage Back

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan hinted that running back Tevin Coleman could be the team's short-yardage back in 2019. Coleman is San Fran's biggest running back, but he hasn't really proven to be very effective between the tackles in his four seasons with the Falcons. The soon-to-be 26-year-old is talented (career 4.4 yard-per-carry […]

Colts Believe Marlon Mack Is A Feature Back

The Indianapolis Colts believe that running back Marlon Mack is a bell-cow No. 1 back and would like him to continue leading their committee approach in 2019, which is also why the team didn't really pursue Le'Veon Bell on the open market. Mack finished last year with 908 rushing yards on 195 carries (4.66 yards […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - New York Jets Outlook

A common theme that you will see with the teams at the top of this year's draft is starting over. That is exactly the case with the New York Jets. Gone is Todd Bowles, enter Adam Gase. Gone is Isaiah Crowell, enter Le'Veon Bell. The front office is hoping that these two moves help improve […]

Eagles Trade For Jordan Howard

The Philadelphia Eagles acquired running back Jordan Howard from the Chicago Bears on Thursday in exchange for a sixth-round conditional pick in 2020. The pick can become a fifth-rounder, according to a league source. The 24-year-old started out hot in his rookie year in 2016 and has fallen since, rushing 250 times for 935 yards […]

Raiders Agree With Isaiah Crowell

The Oakland Raiders signed free-agent running back Isaiah Crowell to a one-year deal worth up to $2.5 million on Thursday, according to a source. Crowell had several big games with the Jets in 2018 but finished with a disappointing 143 carries for 685 yards and six touchdowns while playing in 13 games. His fantasy value […]

Titans Plan To Ride Derrick Henry In 2019

Tennessee Titans general manager Jon Robinson reiterated that the team plans to ride running back Derrick Henry as their lead back in 2019. In five December games last year, Henry carried the offense, running for 625 yards and eight touchdowns. He finished with 215 attempts, 1,059 yards and 12 touchdowns (4.9 yards per carry) in […]

Bills Add Senorise Perry

The Buffalo Bills signed free-agent running back Senorise Perry to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday. Perry didn't see any action at all in 2018 with the Dolphins and has just eight carries for 30 yards in his three NFL seasons. He'll strictly serve as depth for Buffalo behind LeSean McCoy and Frank Gore. Perry […]

Panthers Re-Sign Cameron Artis-Payne

The Carolina Panthers re-signed running back Cameron Artis-Payne to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday. The team's fifth-round pick in 2015 has averaged 4.2 yards per carry in his first four NFL seasons, but he's too far down on the depth chart to have any real fantasy value in 2019. CAP has 118 career carries […]

Lions Won't Overwork Kerryon Johnson

Detroit Lions head coach Matt Patricia and the coaching staff have no plans to baby running back Kerryon Johnson (knee) in his return to the field this year, but the second-year running back's workload could be limited. Johnson missed six games with a season-ending knee injury in his rookie season in 2018. He averaged 15 […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - Oakland Raiders Outlook

What a difference a year makes for the Oakland Raiders. This time last year, the team was back under the control of Jon Gruden and we were all left wondering what would be in store for them. After several questionable moves later (dealing away Khalil Mack and Amari Cooper), the 2018 Raiders were an embarrassing […]

Browns Cooling On Trading Duke Johnson?

It appears the Cleveland Browns have cooled on attempting to trade running back Duke Johnson. "I don’t know why we would ever want to, like, just voluntarily give up a good football player. Duke Johnson is a good football player. Duke Johnson will have a role on our football team," head coach Freddie Kitchens said. […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - San Francisco 49ers Outlook

The 2018 San Francisco 49ers were a team that was haunted by the injury bug. Both major acquisitions (Jimmy Garoppolo and Jerick McKinnon) went down early to season-ending injuries, causing this team to dig deep into their depth chart for help. Even the players brought in to fill those roles found themselves missing time as […]

Raiders Hoping To Add Isaiah Crowell

Free-agent running back Isaiah Crowell will visit the Oakland Raiders on Thursday, according to a source. Head coach Jon Gruden is hoping to add Crowell to the mix. Crowell had 143 carries for 685 yards (4.8 yards per carry) and six touchdowns in his only season with the Jets in 2018. Three hundred and twenty […]

Bills To Release Chris Ivory

The Buffalo Bills plan to release running back Chris Ivory after signing veteran Frank Gore this offseason, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Releasing Ivory will save the team $2.15 million against the salary cap and will cost $750,000 in dead cap money. The veteran averaged just 3.3 yards per carry on 115 attempts in 2018 […]

Eagles Not Ruling Out Return Of Darren Sproles

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson isn't ruling out the return of running back Darren Sproles, who has yet to make a decision on whether he will retire. Sproles is ready to retire, but he's played in nine games the last two seasons and wants to go out on a good note. He ran the […]

Bears Exploring Trade Offers For Jordan Howard?

The Chicago Bears could explore trade offers for running back Jordan Howard this offseason, according to head coach Matt Nagy. Despite scoring nine touchdowns in back-to-back seasons, Howard saw a career-low 250 rushing attempts for 935 yards in his third season in Chicago and first under Nagy. The 2016 fifth-round pick isn't as good of […]

Redskins Expect Derrius Guice To Be Ready

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said he expects running back Derrius Guice (knee) to do individual work in organized team activities and then join the team full-go at training camp in the summer. "I think Derrius will be fine," Gruden said. Fantasy owners will need to keep a close eye on Guice as he […]

NFL Draft 32 for 32 - Arizona Cardinals Outlook

There is a reason why the Cardinals hold the top pick heading into the draft. This team was terribly inept on both sides of the ball. Worst in points scored on offense (14.1 PPG) and 25th in points allowed on defense (26.6 PPG). The team looked devoid of talent for most of the season and […]

D'Onta Foreman Motivated In 2019

Houston Texans running back D'Onta Foreman looks to be much leaner than he was in his first two NFL seasons and looked quick and explosive during an impromptu workout on Sunday. Foreman rushed the ball seven times for negative-one yard in his only game in 2018 that was mainly spent rehabbing an Achilles rupture. He […]

Jay Ajayi Expected To Be Ready For Season

Drew Rosenhaus, the agent for free-agent running back Jay Ajayi (knee), expects his client to be ready for the start of the season. Ajayi's visit with the Indianapolis Colts last week went well, but he's also still in discussions to return to the Philadelphia Eagles. Ajayi might not even be ready for all of training […]

Jerick McKinnon In Team's Plans

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said that running back Jerick McKinnon fits into the team's plans for the 2019 season. McKinnon missed all of his first year in San Francisco after getting injured in the preseason. Now he'll have to fight for touches with Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida, which will make it […]

Browns Have Plan For Kareem Hunt

Cleveland Browns general manager John Dorsey said the team has a plan for running back Kareem Hunt up until his suspension begins for the 2019 season. Hunt was suspended eight games by the NFL for two violations of the personal-conduct policy. The running back won't appeal the suspension and Dorsey said he is "most proud" […]

Malcolm Brown Will Remain With Rams

The Los Angeles Rams are matching the Detroit Lions offer sheet for restricted free-agent running back Malcolm Brown on Friday. Brown's deal with the Rams is for two years with a $3.3 million base salary, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He'll receive $2.1 million in practice guarantees ($1 million base guaranteed and a $1.1 […]

Under-the-Radar Free Agent RB Signings - Risers and Fallers

Free agency is in full swing and there's been a lot of movement among the league's big names. Odell Beckham was traded. Antonio Brown was traded. Le'Veon Bell signed with the Jets. But there's been a lot of movement around the league that hasn't involved those big name players. After some of the bigger names […]
