BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: The rookie has outsnapped Kenneth Walker in each of the past three games, playing on over 50 percent of the Seahawks' offensive snaps. Many fantasy players are anticipating that Charbonnet's growing amount of time on the field could progress to more work at the expense of Walker.

It is evident, though, that Walker is still getting a good amount of carries when he is on the field, as illustrated by his 19 rushing attempts in Week 10. Meanwhile, Charbonnet had six carries against Washington. The rookie did catch four passes, but he is clearly not touching the ball nearly as much as Walker despite the increased reps and a physical running style that contrasts well with Walker’s explosiveness.
Charbonnet may still get more touches and can emerge as a flex option in the weeks ahead. But he is not an optimal flex starter just yet, as the extra reps are not translating into enough touches. With Seattle ranking 27th in run-blocking advantage on PFF this week, neither Seahawks RB has a high ceiling.
