RUNNING BACK

C.J. Prosise ($4900) Seahwaks vs. Eagles – This is the blue-light special play of the week. Maybe we should have all see the writing on the wall prior to last week’s breakout performance from Prosise. There was some pretty strong talk throughout the week that C.J. might end up taking more of a lead back approach and we saw it happen Sunday night. 24 total touches later and over 150 multi-purpose yards, Prosise made a pretty big statement towards owning that lead back role. Seattle responded this week by releasing RB Christine Michael with the impending return of Thomas Rawls. Even with the chance for Rawls to get some work, I think Prosise’s floor is pretty high due to his ability to catch passes. Philly is currently 13th in the league against the run, but like I said, his receiving ability for this price is what makes him such an attractive option.

LeVeon Bell ($9100) Steelers @ Browns – This one could get ugly for Cleveland, something that has been said week in and week out this season. Bell finally ended his touchdown drought last week scoring twice against Dallas and could very well find paydirt twice again this weekend. The Browns are giving up nearly 150 yards per game on the ground and Bell is one of the most dynamic backs in all of football. He also continues to catch a ton of passes working out of the slot, giving him a really solid floor and huge ceiling. The only concern here is how quickly Pittsburgh calls off the dogs as they are likely to run away with this one.

Theo Riddick ($6700) Lions vs. Jaguars – Riddick comes in off the Lions bye week in an excellent spot against a crappy Jaguars defense. He has been battling an ankle injury and has still been limited this week, however the extra week off certainly can’t hurt. Riddick’s real value is typically in catching the ball out of the backfield, however their final game before the bye week, he gained 70 yards on the ground against a touch Vikings front 7. I think Riddick dominates the touches for an offense in great spot at home.

Others I Like – DeMarco Murray ($8500), LeGarrette Blount ($7300), Todd Gurley ($6700)
