re: Where did the Andre Ellington hype come from?

Why do you use last year's stats for guys who were rookie backups? It's dumb and has no bearing on this season if they are going to be the starter getting the bulk of the carries.

As for the OL ARZ get LG Jonathan Cooper back from injury (Mike Mayock clamored for him to get #1 overall consideration in 2013) and add Jordan Veldheer at tackle. Their left side of the line will be very good.

As for facing the tough run, look at his schedule in 2014

Rank in terms of giving up points to fantasy RBs

Denver 17th
NYG 20th
STL 26th
SD 14th
WAS 27th
OAK 29th
DAL 32nd
ATL 24th
KC 18th
PHI 12th

That is a cupcake schedule.


SEA and SF are the only top 10 DEF vs fantasy RBs he will face this season. And like someone mentioned, SF is week 17, when no one plays in fantasy.
