Who Should I Start? James Conner or Bijan Robinson

Friday, September 15, 4:19 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner will be good to go in Week 2 against the New York Giants as he does not carry an injury designation anymore. The 28-year-old was dealing with a calf issue this week but ultimately was able to feel good enough to shed the injury status altogether. As the main source of offense for this team, he'll likely be a low-end RB2 since he'll the see bulk of the opportunities in the backfield. His main limitation will be the offense playing from behind due to a lack of scoring ability.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has been as advertised thus far in his NFL career. The No. 8 overall pick has rushed 29 times for 180 yards and caught 10 of his 11 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown through two weeks. Against the Detroit Lions in Week 3, he should continue to post RB1 numbers. The Lions are just a mid-level defense against fantasy running backs so far, but Robinson sets up to be the best running back they have faced, and the Falcons' offensive line could have its way in this matchup. Tyler Allgeier will continue to be mixed in alongside Robinson, but the rookie from Texas will pay off for fantasy teams with efficiency.
