Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Najee Harris (RB – PIT)

Najee Harris rushed 14 times for 53 yards, averaging 3.8 yards per carry, and scored 1 touchdown, his first of the year. 3-yard TD run on one of his 3 red-zone touches.
Had 3 targets and caught 3 passes for 15 yards. Also only ran a route on 36% of the dropbacks.

Was stuck on 6 carries for 23 yards in the 1st half.

Jaylen Warren rushed 6 times for 32 yards, averaging 5.3 yards per carry, and scored 1 touchdown (2 targets). 13-yard TD run on 1 of 2 red-zone carries.

The split has not gone away between Harris/Warren with the only noticeable difference being the team wanted to get Harris more involved as a receiver. Ran more routes than Warren (5 vs 10) and saw the first target in the game.

Still, I am very skeptical that the role sticks. The sell-high window for Harris comes only so often, so I’d take advantage. The next two matchups with be tough for him as a rusher.

Jerome Ford (RB – CLE)

Jerome Ford carried the ball 11 times for 74 yards. He had 77 total yards after his first two carries including a 69-yard TD.

Kareem Hunt carried the ball 10 times for 31 yards, averaging 3.1 yards per carry, and scored 2 goal-line touchdowns. Hunt was used more in the red zone last week and that was the case again here in Week 7 with three red-zone carries. Pierre Strong carried the ball 8 times for 25 yards, averaging 3.1 yards per carry. Didn’t touch ball till the 3rd quarter. Ran more routes than Hunt.

Ford also had 4 targets and caught 2 passes for 20 yards. Hunt with just one target.

First half touches were 11 to 5 in favor of Ford.

Ford did get hurt toward the end of the game with an ankle injury which boosted the usage for Strong later in the contest.

Darrell Henderson Jr. (RB – LAR)

Darrell Henderson Jr. started and ran the ball 18 times for 61 yards, averaging 3.4 yards per carry, and scored 1 touchdown in the red zone (2 targets). Logged 3 total red-zone opportunities and 57% of the snaps.

Royce Freeman carried the ball 12 times for 66 yards, averaging 5.5 yards per carry and did not score a touchdown. 43% snap share.

Zach Evans was nowhere to be found. Did not log an offensive snap (played on special teams). At least we got the report Sunday morning that Evans would not be the featured guy behind Freeman/Hendo, but to the extent that those two were used was up in the air.

Those two RBs switched off the drives. Henderson had 9 carries in the first half to Freeman’s 7. Likely will be a split backfield till Kyren Williams returns.

But until that time comes, I’d be sure to make sure Henderson is not available on waivers. However, as I have preached with all Rams RBs this season…none of these guys are made for the long haul. Sean McVay churns through RBs like fantasy managers on the waiver wire. So, what’s the move if you already have Henderson or acquire him off waivers this week?

Sell high and do not over bid. Remember, the Steelers were a favorable matchup for RBs. Dallas will present a MUCH tougher challenge in Week 8. And also need to consider that Myles Gaskin might be added to the mix next week after being a healthy scratch.

Cash out now. Considerable me very skeptical that a RB off the couch can be a true difference-maker. He’s never been able to stay healthy and recall that the Rams outright cut him last November despite him leading the team in rushing yards. I went down the retread RB rode with Cam Akers this year and I will not be fooled again by McVay.
