2015 Fantasy Football Running Back Sleepers

0

Demarco Murray – Murray is running behind what may be a better offensive line schematically and is in a faster paced offense with his college QB.
Todd Gurley – When healthy he should push for RB1 numbers every week
Frank Gore – Gore has never seen the types of open lanes and loose boxes he will see in Indy
Carlos Hyde – Hyde is a better receiver than given credit for so still possesses number RB1 potential
Jonathan Stewart – Finally the workhorse, Stewart has always been a RB1 talent but now has the role to go with it
TJ Yeldon – Workhorse, every down running back on a run first team which may be better on offense than people suspect
Shane Vereen – He is the number one in Giant land, especially in PPR
Tevin Coleman – I am a big Freeman fan but Coleman was handpicked by Shanahan and should flourish in a system tailor made for his exciting skill set
Ameer Abdullah – Joique Bell simply is not that good, Abdullah is the future and the present of the Lions backfield, the fact that they want Abdullah in on passing downs tells one all they need to know
Charles Sims – Doug Martin is getting the pub but if Sims is rolling he will get a chance to prove he is the Matt Forte type back Lovie talked him up as
Isaiah Crowell/ Duke Johnson – Crowell is the most talented runner here but Johnson should be getting some love in PPR leagues as the passing down back and Crowell’s must have handcuff
Arian Foster – We all know what a healthy Arian Foster can do and it sounds like he will be back sooner than expected
Javorius Allen – Tailor made for this offense it is only a matter of time before Forsett loses early down role and soon thereafter we should see the shift to Allen as a starter as the Ravens look to be less predictable with their personnel. Allen is a terrific receiver as well.
Jay Ayaji – Ayaji should shine when the pads come on, we are ticketing him to take over and push Miller to a CoP back role
Montee Ball – Ball is more suited to the ball control offense the Broncos wish to run but will have to steal job back first
Andre Williams – Most talented and exciting runner on this team, more value in standard scoring but possess solid upside in any format due to touchdown potential
Trent Richardson – Could be a value pick based on ADP and potential role
Matt Jones – Jones is a punishing third down back that could see major value if Alf falters due to health or inconsistency
