BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 54% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: There has been a massive overreaction to Ezekiel Elliott’s reduced workload during the Cowboys' Week 1 matchup in Tampa, and this is not a suggestion that Pollard will usurp Elliott’s RB1 responsibilities with Dallas. The Cowboys were facing a Buccaneer run defense that allowed a league-low 80.6 yards per game during 2020, and offensive coordinator Kellen Moore opted to deploy Dak Prescott and the Dallas passing attack on 58 of 77 the team’s offensive plays. That limited both backs to a combined 14 attempts (Elliott 11/Pollard 3).
Pollard collected 18 touches, generated 134 total yards, and finished at RB1 in scoring during that pivotal week for managers. He is fully capable of replicating that level of production if he vaults to lead back status again. That should supply your motivation to seize him while he remains available.
