J.K. Dobbins Looks to Stay Consistent Versus Philly

Saturday, October 4, 7:30 AM

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins has been continuing to redeem his career in Denver after scoring a touchdown or rushing for 100 yards in each of his first four games this season. While the Eagles profile as a defense that is better at stopping the run than the pass, expect Dobbins to be called upon to continue impressing as the early-down back. Broncos rookie running back RJ Harvey's role could continue to grow in this offense, but, notably, Dobbins has averaged a second career-best 5.67 yards per carry so far this season. Fantasy managers should continue to start Dobbins with confidence as a solid RB2 with weekly touchdown upside as he comes in as RotoBaller's RB22 for Week 5.

Rhamondre Stevenson Still Team's Top Running Back Option for Week 5?

Saturday, October 4, 9:34 AM

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has held onto his lead-back role despite some fumbling issues so far, and all signs point to him remaining atop the depth chart once again during Week 5 against the Buffalo Bills. Stevenson has been nothing special this season, totaling 125 rushing yards and 141 receiving yards while failing to find the end zone through five weeks. He has managed to hold off rookie TreVeyon Henderson for the top role despite losing two fumbles in Week 3. For now, Stevenson is the best Patriots running back to start in fantasy football, and managers should feel good about him this week. He ranks as a mid-to-low RB3 while taking on a Bills defense that has allowed the ninth-most rushing yards, fourth-most rushing touchdowns, and 13th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs this year.
