Who Should I Start? Zavier Scott or Dylan Laube

Sunday, August 18, 1:30 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Zavier Scott rushed the ball 11 times for 55 and a touchdown in the team's win against the Cardinals on Saturday. Scott led all running backs in carries and yards as Indy mixed in four different backs for the game. The former Maine Black Bear spent last season primarily on the Colts' practice squad and will continue to fight for a spot on the 53-man roster this season. Scott has one more chance to solidify himself when the Colts face off against the Bengals for their final preseason game on Thursday.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Dylan Laube will get his second chance for backfield work for his team in Week 12. Injuries to both of the teams top-2 backs, Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle), have left them almost certain to be held out of the contest. Laube will join lead back Ameer Abdullah to form some kind of committee. There haven't been many helpful reports on how much work he'll get, but the team would be well-served to give him some work and see if he can bring any juice. LV's offense hasn't been good this season, and the running game has been the worst in the league statistically. Such an inefficient ground attack warrants trying out new things. Laube is worth stashing in deep, highly competitive fantasy football leagues, but too risky to start for now. His only carry this season resulted in a lost fumble.
