Give me a late round or undrafted RB that could be worth a keeper next year

I like my team, but I didn't exactly draft for next year. Who can I pick up off of waivers that could be used as a keeper in the 3rd next year.

The only starting RB drafted in or before the 4th or 5th round who will be FA next year are MJD and McFadden. Ben Tate will also be a FA, but he's rostered.


Powell, Ballard, Dunbar, one of the guys in Arizona or San Fran?

I think with Murray being out for the year, he will be available in next year's draft after the 3rd.

I'll watch San Fran's back field all year to see who's Gore's successor and I like Michael, but he'll need an injury to supplant Lynch this year or next I think.

What's going to happen with Lynch that will have Michael worth being taken in the 3rd next year?

Thanks everyone, bookmarking this.

He's an amazing talent. I'm not saying he's going to be ranked in the first 3 rounds next year, but if you're going to take a stab at stashing a keeper, why not stash the best talent?

Oh I didn't see the 3rd thing

I'd venture to say no RB will be worth that except Lattimore.

Even late round guys like Morris and Spiller were rostered this time last year I think. Wilson was picked up off waivers in one of my leagues if I remember correctly.

The average age of my roster is just so old, I could use a lottery ticket.

Because Lynch hasn't missed but like 1 game due to injury in the last 3 years, he's only 27 and he still has 2 years left on his contract.

I'm looking more for guys that could be in position to move into the starting position on their own. I'm not trying to predict injuries.

Damn right, luckily I got Morris in the 11th and kept him this year.

At least we do FAAB, so if someone does emerge due to injury, I can just spend all I have to get him.

micahel is nothing but a change of pace back

Turbin is the kind they want to feed the ball to. Like Lynch.

They took him in the 4th RD last year and he has done nothing to disappoint. HE is the next in line

Michael is a better runner than Turbin. He's getting a lot of hype locally also, not that that actually means anything
