BALLER MOVE: Start in all formats as your RB2/Flex option POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB3 with added value if your league awards points for kick returns ANALYSIS: Brown is an explosive running back with the ability to take one to the house on any given play.

Jerome Ford Returns To Practice On Friday
Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring) returned to practice on Friday according to Scott Petrak of The Chronicle Telegram.

Fantasy managers should monitor the injury report later on Friday as Ford […]

Jonathan Taylor - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Must-Start POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: You cannot bench Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) if he plays. He missed three straight games with a high-ankle sprain, but has a good chance of clearing the injury report. He practiced fully on Thursday, logging his third straight day of work. His workload and talent […]

Sean Tucker – Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start in 16+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB49 ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker was a fantasy football afterthought entering the 2024 season. However, the second-year running back has earned a role on offense after his massive Week 6 performance against the New Orleans Saints. Tucker had 14 rushing attempts for […]

Justice Hill - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Sit in all formats with no teams on a bye in Week 8 POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB4 with value as a handcuff ANALYSIS: Hill's fantasy value comes as a pass catcher, where he's excellent out of the backfield. But the reality is the Ravens are 5-2 and aren't finding themselves in many negative […]

Bucky Irving Could Play On Sunday
Tampa Buccaneers rookie running back Bucky Irving (toe) is in play to suit up on Sunday according to Brianna Dix. The 22-year-old was also spotted at practice on Friday after sitting out on Wednesday and Thursday.

Tyler Allgeier - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4/RB5 ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier has only had one game with a major role this season, and that was in the 38-20 blowout win against the Carolina Panthers in Week 6. He followed that 19.8 PPR fantasy point performance by scoring just 5.5 points in a blowout […]

James Conner Is A Solid RB2 In Week 8
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner should be viewed as a solid RB2 with a high floor when the Cardinals travel to Miami to take on the Dolphins in Week 8. Conner shined on Monday night with 21 touches for 152 yards in the crucial win over the Chargers. That performance further solidified Conner as […]

Travis Etienne Jr. Viewed As Game-Time Decision
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) will likely be a game-time decision on Sunday according to Kainani Stevens. Etienne was sidelined last weekend due to a hamstring injury but has been able to participate during Wednesday's and Thursday's practice in a limited capacity which is a promising sign. Fantasy managers should continue to […]

De'Von Achane - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)
BALLER MOVE: Start in all formats POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: This is the week that managers who have been holding onto Dolphins offensive players have been waiting for!

D'Andre Swift - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)
BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: After a slow start to the season, Swift has been a fantasy force in his last three games posting 26, 19, and 20 fantasy points (half-PPR scoring). While Roschon Johnson has established himself as Swift's main backup, it's been Swift who continues to lead this […]

Ezekiel Elliott Not In Fantasy Consideration For Week 8
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott should not be considered for fantasy lineups going into Week 8's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Elliott saw 41% of snaps in Week 6 against Detroit, but was mostly in the game due to his pass-blocking utility. The veteran has been highly inefficient on the ground this season, […]

Rico Dowdle In Flex Range For Week 8
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle is in flex consideration heading into Week 8's Sunday night matchup against San Francisco. The fifth-year back saw a season-low five rush attempts in his last outing against Detroit, but made up for it with five receptions due to game script. San Francisco has been middle-of-the-road against opposing running […]

Allen Lazard - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5 ANALYSIS: New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard (chest) had his fantasy value is as but cratered by the arrival of newly-signed wide receiver Davante Adams. The seventh-year pro is now the team's WR3 behind Adams and Garrett Wilson which will mean much fewer targets going forward. #Jets WR […]

Ricky Pearsall - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/WR4 ANALYSIS: Whether or not San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has a good day will likely be dependent on opportunity, and he'll have more of it if either of his fellow WRs Deebo Samuel (wrist/illness) or Jauan Jennings (hip) aren't able to play […]

Jordan Mason - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Formats POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: Mason has been limited in practice this week, but really only to save him for the game as he's been nursing a sore shoulder since Week 6. He had one of his toughest matchups of the year in Week 7 against the Chiefs defensive font, […]

Aaron Jones Gains Nearly 100 Yards
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones couldn't find much success on the ground during Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Jones rushed 19 times for 58 yards in what ended up being a loss for Minnesota. However, Jones was able to help his value with two receptions for an additional 37 yards through the […]

Kyren Williams Finds The End Zone Against Vikings
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams still received the bulk of the backfield workload and saw the team's third-most targets. During the 30-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings, Williams finished with 23 carries for 97 yards, five receptions for 19 yards, and a touchdown on seven targets. With this performance, Williams moved into the […]

Zamir White Could Be Relegated To Backup Role In Week 8
Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White and his team will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8, and signs are pointing to an overall reduced role for the third-year pro. He had just four touches in Week 7, and though that was his first game back after missing two contests to a groin […]

Nick Chubb - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb's ceiling got a significant boost after last week. Quarterback Deshaun Watson, one of the worst in the NFL, went down with a season-ending Achilles' tear. Backup Jameis Winston is now set to take his place and hopefully turn the offense into something […]

Rhamondre Stevenson - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (foot/personal) is a solid runner of the football and is a focal point of the offense... when the Pats aren't getting blown out. He put up a dud last game, largely due to negative game script situations. He had just seven […]

Tyrone Tracy Jr. - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: The New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. is the latest in a long line of precautionary tales. Two good games do not mean a player is a stud or an elite fantasy asset. He had the fortunate chance to face the […]

Alexander Mattison (RB, LV) - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)
BALLER MOVE: Sit if you can POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/RB4 ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison is an inefficient running back (3.62 yards per carry) on a losing team (2-5) with a depleted roster -- starting QB Aidan O'Connell (thumb) is on injured reserve, WR1 Davante Adams left for the New York Jets, and […]

Rico Dowdle - Week 8 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks
BALLER MOVE: Start in PPR leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: While he didn't have his best game in the Week 6 blowout loss to the Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle has had some incredibly encouraging things going for him in recent weeks. For one, fellow RB Ezekiel Elliott has looked completely washed, […]
