He was a healthy scratch in week 1

And yet still took the bulk of the snaps when Foster went down in week 2.

I think Landry is the only legitimate fantasy starter on that team

I agree with this.

I just wouldn't read too much into that. Drake essentially didn't get a preseason while he nursed a hamstring injury. It makes sense that they have more trust in Ajayi to come in and carry the load in week 2, than a rookie getting his first live action. Despite that, he still got yanked in the red zone in favor of Drake. Ajayi just isn't very good. We know what we're getting with him. Drake might not be any better, but he definitely has a higher ceiling. If you're looking at either one of these backs I think it should be as a stash in case they blow up- Drake is the only one that fits the bil there. Ajayi has already proven to be a dime a dozen running back
