BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 49% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: After four weeks, it's clear that Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle is the team's RB1. He currently leads the backfield in snaps, carries (34), rush yards (134), catches (nine), and receiving yards (74). Last week, Dowdle enjoyed his best fantasy game of the season, scoring 13.1 PPR fantasy points.
Although the Cowboys have had a hard time running the football so far this season, Dowdle is still a solid add in all leagues. He has played at least 43% of the team's offensive snaps in all four games while seeing five targets in two of the past three contests.
Rico Dowdle's running back rush shares in Weeks 1 and 2: 32.0% and 33.3%
Rico Dowdle's running back rush shares in Weeks 3 and 4: 61.5% and 61.1%

It hasn't been pretty for Dowdle to start the season, as he's averaging only 3.9 yards per carry through four weeks. However, he has scored over 8.5 PPR fantasy points in three straight games and should continue to lead Dallas' backfield moving forward. So, he's certainly worth a waiver wire add in all formats heading into Week 5.
