He’s also offering flex value right now, despite splitting time with Mike Davis. Patterson is WR/RB eligible on Yahoo, which is super-fun. And if something ever happens to Zeke, you’ve got that coveted “league-winning” upside. Sans the presence of Michael Gallup and the fact that Blake Jarwin is still progressing from an ACL tear, AND that Dak is recovering from a gruesome leg wouldn’t surprise me a bit to see Dallas lean more into a balanced rushing attack, making Pollard worthy of a flex spot at the least. But the larger body of work tells us that Dallas has TWO quality running backs. In Week 2, Pollard managed 100+ rushing yards and a score on only 13 carries, while Zeke had 16 carries. his efficiency would probably take a hit with more volume-but at what point do we start considering his recent production? Pollard outgained Zeke in 2020 (4.3 Y/A to 4.0 Y/A) and was better as a receiver (6.9 Y/R to 6.5 Y/R). And yes, Pollard has been the change of pace guy-i.e. He now has a career 5.0 Y/A mark, compared to Zeke’s career 4.5 Y/A. Pollard is legitimately pushing Ezekiel Elliott in Dallas. RUNNING BACK Tony Pollard, DAL (54% rostered) and Cordarrelle Patterson, ATL (15%) On tap are the woeful Atlanta Falcons, too. Jones is up to 122 yards rushing (and two rushing scores) in addition to the damage he has done via the air. The Giants have lost their first two games, but wins and losses don’t matter in fantasy football. If Fields does take umm, the field, he’s a top 12 option in Week 3 against the Browns.ĭaniel Jones is a superb consolation if you can’t add Fields-or if you need a more guaranteed source of points since we don’t yet know if Fields will start in Week 3. Fields should be the man in Chicago sooner rather than later, and this knee injury could be the only opening we need. Andy Dalton (left knee) does NOT have a torn ACL from what the early tests show, but we’ve see this story unfold far too many times to ignore the tea leaves. QUARTERBACK Justin Fields, CHI (51% rostered) and Daniel Jones, NYG (19%)įields is the guy to add this week if he’s available. So here’s who I am targeting this week in fantasy football. What is a player’s range of outcomes? What is realistic or probable? I’d rather add guys that have a shot to help me out in the short-term AND potentially in the long-term (i.e. When I’m thinking of who to add, I’m trying to consider the long-term.
