The 2024 NFL season is rapidly approaching, which means fantasy football drafts are right around the corner.Running back is arguably the most important position in fantasy football, but due to injuries, timeshares and an overall lack of quality depth, it's also the hardest to draft. After all, some fantasy managers spent their first-round pick on Tony Pollard last season, only for him to finish as the RB14, while Kyren Williams finished as the RB7 despite going undrafted in most leagues.  With that in mind, here are three running backs selected outside of the first two rounds of 12-team PPR scoring...

After more than a day delay, the 2024 Wyndham Championship finally got underway Friday in Greensboro, North Carolina. A rain-soaked Sedgefield Country Club was no match for the field, especially Beau Hossler who fired a 10-under 60 in the first round of the regular season finale to take the overnight lead over Billy Horschel at 8 under who still has holes remaining as play was suspended due to darkness.

Malik Nabers was taken 6th overall by the New York Giants in the 2024 NFL draft. Quarterback Daniel Jones’ back is against the wall this season, and Nabers was brought in to eliminate any excuses about quarterback play. Nabers was immediately slotted in at the WR1 position in New York after posting bonkers numbers at LSU in 2023. Clearly, Nabers is an awesome talent, but can Daniel Jones support a top-10 receiver in fantasy football?
