We can’t believe we’re already at Week 10 of the NFL season. Time really does fly! We’ve already seen so many great performances, unfortunate injuries (we wish you a speedy recovery, Derrick Henry) and notable upsets. It’s been a quirky but fun regular season, and we still have a ways to go until we reach the playoffs.
We feel like we have a good sample size to go off of to determine our rest-of-season outlook for the league’s running backs. Now that managers all around have a better idea of their teams’ strengths and weaknesses, it’s smart to check in with the updated rest-of-season rankings landscape from a positional standpoint.
You might be the manager who’s the envy of their league(s), or you may be the manager that’s fighting to make it to the playoffs. Regardless, we’ve got you covered with our 2021 NFL Season Tools which offer plenty of help for managers competing in all formats. They’re aimed at giving you the information you need to have a leg up on your league mates — from weekly rankings, projections, top waiver wire suggestions, league sync, positional reports, to exclusive expert columns — this year’s edition of Season Tools is the sharpest set we’ve ever produced.
Today, we’re spotlighting our rest-of-season running back rankings. Managers are well aware just how important RBs can be in fantasy and how much of premium is added to the the fantasy studs of the landscape. While players like Dalvin Cook and Ezekiel Elliott have remained true reliable producers at the top, there has been notable movement in the rankings among studs overcoming challenges, high-upside RBs elevating their game and injuries playing a role in their rest-of-season value.
Check out our top ten running backs for the rest of the season in half-PPR formats:
