BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has been a bit of a fantasy afterthought amidst the team's current running back trio, which is rounded out by No. 1 back Mark Ingram II and rookie J.K.

Mark Ingram II Doesn't Do Much Once Again
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II ran for 57 yards off 11 carries during the Week 5 win over Cincinnati. The veteran once again had the most attempts out of the backfield but continued to concede carries to Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, and Lamar Jackson. Outside of his effectiveness inside the red zone, he […]
Lamar Jackson Goes Cold On The Ground In Week 5
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson threw for 180 yards and two touchdowns during the win over the Bengals in Week 5. He also threw an interception and ran for just three yards on two attempts. The reigning MVP had another disappointing outing despite the relatively favorable matchup against Cincinnati.

Week 5 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
After successfully predicting eight out of the top ten defenses last week, we may be starting to hit our groove. Some of them felt a bit like gimmes, but the Jets in the top-10 was the subject of criticism and watching the Bills round into form a bit was also nice. The only two outliers […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 5
Last week's wide receiver matchup article featured five receivers that finished inside the top-20, including Odell Beckham Jr. who finished as the highest scoring wide receiver in Week 4.

NFL Betting Picks For Week 5 (10/11/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Spreads
We took care of some business in Week 4, going 2-1, with the loss being a disappointing one. Baltimore took care of business, although a bad no-call on a would-be Marquise Brown touchdown made it a little more a sweat than need be. Jacksonville and Cincinnati covered the over with ease, and that was after […]

J.K. Dobbins Looks To Get Back On Track
Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins seemed to be poised for a breakout after a two-touchdown performance in Week 1. However, since then, he has trended downward, racking up only eight touches for 70 yards over the team's previous three contests. While he may have some more effective performances moving ahead, possibly against the Bengals […]
Gus Edwards May Continue To Get Touches
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has exceeded expectations in 2020 and is currently the team's most productive option out of the backfield, at least from a yardage standpoint. Despite Mark Ingram II and J.K. Dobbins having more rushing touchdowns, Edwards has a chance to rack up some yards on the ground, albeit not enough […]
Mark Ingram II A Risky Option Against Bengals
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II has been trending in the wrong direction in 2020. Despite finding the end zone twice on the year, he continues to concede carries to Lamar Jackson, the team's leading rusher, Gus Edwards, and rookie J.K. Dobbins. Fantasy managers who are in a jam in Week 5 against the […]
