-
Christian McCaffrey, RB, 49ers (vs. Giants)- 26 Points
110 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Giants couldn’t stop James Conner.
-
Tony Pollard, RB, Cowboys (at Cardinals)- 24 Points
100 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Tony Pollard will continue to dominate, and the Cowboys figure to have a huge lead throughout.
-
Austin Ekeler, RB, Chargers (at Vikings)- 21 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Status unknown.
-
Derrick Henry, RB, Titans (at Browns)- 19 Points
90 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Derrick Henry’s durability is questionable, but he’s a top option while healthy.
-
Bijan Robinson, RB, Falcons (at Lions)- 18 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Lions are better against the run than the pass, but Bijan Robinson will be a big factor as a receiver out of the backfield.
-
Josh Jacobs, RB, Raiders (vs. Steelers)- 17 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Steelers will be worse than usual against the run because Cameron Heyward is out.
-
Joshua Kelley, RB, Chargers (at Vikings)- 16 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
Joshua Kelley will be a fine option if Austin Ekeler is out again, especially in this matchup because the Vikings wouldn’t be able to stop the run.
-
Kenneth Walker, RB, Seahawks (vs. Panthers)- 16 Points
80 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Panthers are worse against the run than the pass.
-
James Conner, RB, Cardinals (vs. Cowboys)- 14 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
James Conner should catch plenty of checkdowns.
-
Isiah Pacheco, RB, Chiefs (vs. Bears)- 14 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
The Bears made Rachaad White look good.
-
Aaron Jones, RB, Packers (vs. Saints)- 13 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
Aaron Jones hurt his hamstring on his touchdown run in Week 1, so it remains to be seen if he can play.
-
Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, Patriots (at Jets)- 13 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
The Jets have done a good job against the run through two weeks.
-
Alexander Mattison, RB, Vikings (vs. Chargers)- 13 Points
40 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
The Chargers have been stronger versus the run than the pass.
-
Joe Mixon, RB, Bengals (vs. Rams)- 12 Points
70 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
The Rams seem to be better versus the pass than the run, but Joe Mixon should still have a good game.
-
James Cook, RB, Bills (at Redskins)- 12 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
James Cook will take a bit of a step back in production this week.
-
Jerome Ford, RB, Browns (vs. Titans)- 12 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
Jerome Ford looked great in relief of Nick Chubb.
-
Travis Etienne, RB, Jaguars (vs. Texans)- 12 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
Travis Etienne could pick up where Zack Moss left off.
-
Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Lions (vs. Falcons)- 12 Points
40 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards.
Fire up Jahmyr Gibbs if David Montgomery is out.
-
Rachaad White, RB, Bucs (vs. Eagles)- 11 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Rachaad White could have trouble staying out of negative yardage.
-
D'Andre Swift, RB, Eagles (at Buccaneers)- 11 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
D’Andre Swift will be a great threat if Kenneth Gainwell is out again. If Gainwell plays, there’s no telling what the Eagles will do.
-
David Montgomery, RB, Lions (vs. Falcons)- 11 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 1 TD.
Status unknown.
-
Miles Sanders, RB, Panthers (at Seahawks)- 11 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Miles Sanders figures to have a middling game in this matchup.
-
Kyren Williams, RB, Rams (at Bengals)- 11 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Kyren Williams must be added and used in all formats.
-
Gus Edwards, RB, Ravens (vs. Colts)- 11 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 1 TD.
The Colts have done well against the run through two weeks.
-
Jamaal Williams, RB, Saints (at Packers)- 11 Points

50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Status unknown.
-
Tyler Allgeier, RB, Falcons (at Lions)- 10 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Don’t count on those two touchdowns again.
-
Matt Breida, RB, Giants (at 49ers)- 10 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
Matt Breida is worth streaming if Saquon Barkley is out.
-
Brian Robinson, RB, Redskins (vs. Bills)- 10 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
The Bills just limited Josh Jacobs to two rushing yards.
-
Khalil Herbert, RB, Bears (at Chiefs)- 9 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
The Bears seem to have forgotten about Khalil Herbert.
-
Zack Moss, RB, Colts (at Ravens)- 9 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards.
Zack Moss looked decent last week. I don’t see him running against the Ravens, though Moss caught more passes than expected last week.
-
Raheem Mostert, RB, Dolphins (vs. Broncos)- 9 Points
90 Rushing Yards.
Raheem Mostert should continue to post quality numbers.
-
Dalvin Cook, RB, Jets (vs. Patriots)- 9 Points
40 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
-
Breece Hall, RB, Jets (vs. Patriots)- 9 Points
50 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
I don’t trust Breece Hall coming off a torn ACL. He looks great in limited action, but he’s not playing a lot of snaps.
-
Najee Harris, RB, Steelers (at Raiders)- 9 Points
60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards.
Najee Harris is splitting the workload with Jaylen Warren.
-

20 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
-
A.J. Dillon, RB, Packers (vs. Saints)- 6 Points

10 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
-
Deon Jackson, RB, Colts (at Ravens)- 5 Points
