Who Should I Start? Ray Davis or Ollie Gordon II

Wednesday, October 8, 11:40 AM

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis had an encouraging rookie year in 2024, recording 631 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns on 130 total touches. However, Davis has played a more limited role in the team's offense through the first five games of 2025, as he's logged just 14 total touches for 29 yards from scrimmage. Bills RB1 James Cook has dominated the backfield workload, which is a departure from how the team deployed its running backs last season. Davis maintains some appeal in deep leagues as a handcuff to Cook. However, Davis has very little standalone fantasy value heading into Buffalo's Week 7 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II continues to serve as the primary backup for De'Von Achane, but hasn't been involved enough to make him a good fantasy play this week against the Browns. Gordon played 24% of snaps last week against the Chargers but only had two carries for one yard and one catch on one target for one more yard. He has played 14 or 15 snaps in each of the last four weeks, but he hasn't produced over 10 yards in any of those contests. He's only the RB55 in RotoBaller's rankings this week since the Browns have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. The rookie's role looks like it will remain minimal for as long as Achane is healthy.
