Tyjae Spears' Dynasty Value Linked to NFL Draft

Thursday, April 2, 4:13 PM

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has missed nine games over the past two seasons and seen his carries and rushing yards drop year over year. Heading into the final season of his rookie contract, the former third-round pick might be facing a make-or-break situation. Unfortunately for Spears, the Titans have been heavily linked to Notre Dame prospect Jeremiyah Love in the upcoming NFL Draft, a selection that could result in little more than change-of-pace work for the fourth-year pro. Once expected to share close to a 50/50 split with veteran Tony Pollard, Spears has been out-touched by nearly a 2.5:1 ratio over the past two seasons, and should the Titans spend a top-four pick on the best running back in the draft, any hopes of a fantasy resurgence will likely be put to rest.

Robbie Ouzts News

Robbie Ouzts Being Converted To Fullback

Sunday, May 4, 1:08 PM

The Seattle Seahawks are converting rookie fifth-round tight end Robbie Ouzts to a 274-pound fullback as part of their vision for a more physical running game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. Ouzts will be competing with Brady Russell, who is also making the transition from tight end to fullback this offseason. He worked mostly as a blocker during his four-year college career at Alabama, so it should be a pretty natural transition for Ouzts in Seattle. Ouzts obviously won't be on the fantasy radar at all as a blocker if he's on the field regularly, but this news is good news for the Seahawks' ground attack and starting running back Kenneth Walker III and backup Zach Charbonnet. In 17 games last year, Seattle averaged just 95.7 rushing yards per game, which ranked as the fifth-fewest in the NFL.
