To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy RB rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a Traditional scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

    90 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Tony Pollard should continue to run well in this matchup.

  15. Brian Robinson, RB, Redskins (at Saints)- 15 Points
    70 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    It’s easy to run on the Saints.

  16. David Montgomery, RB, Lions (vs. Bills)- 14 Points
    70 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    David Montgomery should have decent success against the Bills.

  17. Zach Charbonnet, RB, Seahawks (vs. Packers)- 14 Points
    60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Zach Charbonnet is a must-play if Kenneth Walker is out again.

    70 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Chicago is very poor against the run.

  19. Jonathan Taylor, RB, Colts (at Broncos)- 13 Points
    60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.

  20. Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, Patriots (at Cardinals)- 13 Points
    60 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Cardinals just allowed Zach Charbonnet to look like Walter Payton.

  22. Isiah Pacheco, RB, Chiefs (at Browns)- 12 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Browns are better against the run, so Isiah Pacheco doesn’t look too appealing this week.

  23. Tyrone Tracy, RB, Giants (vs. Ravens)- 12 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    It’s difficult to run on the Ravens.

    A tough matchup for a terrible player.

  29. Braelon Allen, RB, Jets (at Jaguars)- 10 Points
    80 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
    Braelon Allen can definitely be used if Breece Hall is out again.

  30. Alvin Kamara, RB, Saints (vs. Redskins)- 10 Points
    70 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
    The Redskins have a soft run defense.

    The Chiefs are stout against the run.

  32. D'Andre Swift, RB, Bears (at Vikings)- 8 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
    The Vikings are stout against the run, so I don’t like D’Andre Swift’s outlook.

  33. Javonte Williams, RB, Broncos (vs. Colts)- 8 Points
    20 Rushing Yards, 1 Catch, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    You can’t trust Denver’s running game at all.

  34. Rachaad White, RB, Bucs (at Chargers)- 8 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 6 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
    Rachaad White is still getting some work, but Bucky Irving is the running back to own.

  35. Jaylen Warren, RB, Steelers (at Eagles)- 8 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 4 Catches, 30 Receiving Yards.
    Might be the better option because of his receiving ability.
