Just a reminder that second contracts on RBs should be avoided like the plague. If you play in a Losers League here's two guys that have shown up;
Only three running backs finished above the penalty this week. Of the three, the one you were most likely to be tempted with was Tony Pollard (19). The Cowboys backfield has become a nightmare for those who drafted Ezekiel Elliott in their regular fantasy league. Pollard and Elliott had basically the same number of touches against the Chargers, but Pollard had five plays of 10 or more yards compared to Elliott's two, and Elliott was stuffed six times to Pollard's zero. Pollard, it should be mentioned, is making $800,000 a year compared to Elliott's $15 million. Just, you know, seems worth mentioning.
Elsewhere, James Conner (2) makes his second appearance in this section in as many weeks, as he's averaging 3.3 yards per touch and getting basically no use in the passing game; he's displaying slug-like tendencies in Arizona, which is one of the reasons we suggested you pick him last week.
