Fantasy managers, this is what you’ve been playing for. The championship. The ‘chip. The trophy. Bragging rights. Everything you could have hoped for in that live draft — or in an online Yahoo draft room — back in August or early September is coming to fruition now. And hopefully, you didn’t get handed a bad beat like this one that sent you to the consolation round.
It’s Week 17, and all that time hitting the waiver wire and talking trades may just pay off with a title. But there are still decisions to make. In one of the toughest years for injuries to star players, the running back position has seen its fair share of attrition, with four running backs taken in the first two rounds in Yahoo ADP missing time this year. If your team has Christian McCaffrey or Kyren Williams, thank your lucky stars and get a spot on your shelf ready for some hardware.
But most teams start a pair of running backs, and have some hard decisions to make with that second spot. That’s where this article can help.
Like the past two weeks, we’re playing a little Red Light/Green Light, highlighting running backs who are in good spots and those staring down difficult matchups. Included in this article is the percentage of teams playing for the title on which these players are rostered.
Some of these players, you’re starting no matter what, though some players could have fantasy managers on the fence.
Always remember, while flags fly forever, bragging rights are to be enjoyed face-to-face, via group text or whatever trash-talking format you prefer.
Buena suerte. Let’s play some Red Light/Green Light.
