Devin Neal Sees the Slightest Tick in Fantasy Value

Sunday, August 23, 5:50 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Devin Neal (hamstring) recently saw a slight bump in his fantasy value after fellow running back Alvin Kamara suffered a sprained MCL in his right knee during a joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys early last week. However, Neal is battling his own hamstring injury, which he aggravated in the first quarter of yesterday's preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams. The 23-year-old has been dealing with a hamstring issue over the last two weeks, despite returning to practice last week. With Kamara sidelined, Neal has a chance to compete with Kendre Miller (back) for the No. 2 running back spot behind Travis Etienne Jr. for the rest of training camp and preseason. However, it would take an injury to Etienne and Kamara for Neal to have fantasy value during the regular season, and he should remain off fantasy radars during drafts.

Adam Randall Leads the Way for Ravens in Preseason Debut

Saturday, August 15, 7:30 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Adam Randall led the team with 12 carries, 46 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown during Saturday's preseason victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. He also caught one of two targets for two receiving yards. Earlier this week, we heard rumors that the Ravens coaching staff was very impressed by Randall, a fifth-round pick out of Clemson. While we can't put too much stock in one preseason game, his production on Saturday certainly reaffirms why the Baltimore brass is so optimistic. Derrick Henry remains the primary ball-carrier here and Justice Hill is the clear pass-catching back, but Randall is making a legitimate push for the No. 3 running back job ahead over Rasheen Ali. If the 22-year-old can continue to produce this preseason, he could emerge as an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues, especially for Derrick Henry managers looking to get a high-upside handcuff.
