Who Should I Start? A.J. Dillon or Jerome Ford

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon was the only other member of the Philly backfield to get any action in Week 6, carrying the ball once and grabbing two receptions in the loss. Dillon played just 14% of snaps once again, but seems to have cemented himself as the primary handcuff option for if Saquon Barkley goes down. If managers have Barkley and some extra room on the bench, Dillon isn't a bad piece to add just in case. But for now, that's his only fantasy value. He should not be in lineups for his upcoming matchup against the Vikings.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford carried the ball just one time for one yard while failing to corral his lone target in a 27-20 loss to the New York Jets in Week 10. Ford has been lightly used in the Cleveland offense of late, having seen just four carries over his past three games. The veteran tailback has taken a backseat to rookie Quinshon Judkins, who has been operating as the team's bell-cow back this season. Ford isn't even a particularly strong handcuff option as he would have to split work with Dylan Sampson if Judkins were forced to miss time at any point. Ford can be left on waivers ahead of a Week 11 home matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
