Who Should I Start? Justice Hill or Devin Neal

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill saw a season high of four targets in Monday night's loss to the Lions. He caught three for 45 yards, which more than doubled his passing yards from the first two weeks. However, in a game where bell cow Derrick Henry failed to get rolling, outside of an early touchdown run, and had a costly fumble late in the game, Hill was not given a single carry. On a Ravens team not projected to see many multiple-score deficits, this was the exact game script that should have been to Hill's benefit. And while 45 yards from the running back position can be a fantasy difference maker, it's less impactful when it's the entirety of his output. With a more favorable schedule coming up for Baltimore, there will be few, if any, opportunities to sneak Hill into a flex spot.

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Devin Neal did not record a touch in Week 2 and appears to be the clear RB3 in New Orleans behind Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller. The Saints are averaging 114 rushing yards per game as a team through the first two weeks of the season, but it does not appear that Neal will be a regular contributor in the run game without an injury to one of the backs ahead of him on the depth chart. Neal still has some value as a stash play in dynasty leagues, but he should not be on the radar of redraft managers for the time being.
