Todd Gurley, LAR: Team continues to deny long-term concern about injury; owners have reason to worry.
|
| |
Dalvin Cook, MIN: Will stay healthy one of these years, but owners should handcuff him whenever possible.
|
| |
Nick Chubb, CLE: Inpossible to know what will happen to workload when Kareem Hunt returns.
|
| |
Kenyan Drake, MIA: Would be surprised if touch total doesn't increase from last year's 173 to about 225.
|
| |
Sony Michel, NE: Hard to feel great about his ceiling after addition of similar back (Damien Harris) in the draft.
|
| |
Damien Williams, KC: Has never handled more than 118 touches (including playoffs) in any of his five pro seasons.
|
| |
Devonta Freeman, ATL: A top-20 RB for sure when healthy, but back-to-back injury-riddled seasons may signal he is wearing down.
|
| |
Ronald Jones, TB: Contacted at or behind line of scrimmage on 13 of his 23 carries last season.
|
 |
Carlos Hyde, KC: Worth acquiring cheap; Damien Williams has never handled more than 118 touches in any of his five NFL seasons.
|
 |
Jordan Howard, PHI: Could be one-and-done in Philly after Eagles spent second-rounder on Miles Sanders.
|
|
Mike Davis, CHI: Arrival of David Montgomery hurts, but he'll likely remain a factor throughout the season.
|
|
Darrell Henderson, LAR: Draft's most explosive back; is he a complement or insurance policy for Gurley?
|
|
Darwin Thompson, KC: Owners need to pay attention anytime Andy Reid gets his hands on an explosive runner.
|
|
Alexander Mattison, MIN: Likely handcuff for Dalvin Cook, who has missed 17 of a possible 32 games since entering league.
|
|
Latavius Murray, NO: Don't be surprised if UDFA Devine Ozigbo overtakes him at some point in 2019.
|
|
Trayveon Williams, CIN: Figures to be the new Gio Bernard when Bernard's contract expires after this season.
|
|
Damarea Crockett, HOU: UDFA worth a shot in backfield with RB on expiring contract (Miller) and one recovering from injury (Foreman).
