It’s easy for me to sit here and point at players being overvalued and over-drafted after a season in which we saw Raheem Mostert and Kyren Williams finish as top-six running backs, but that’s exactly what I’m here to do. And I’m just here so I don’t get fined.

6 Overvalued Running Backs to Avoid (2024 Fantasy Football)

George Pickens took a step forward last season, logging over 1000 yards despite a revolving door at quarterback. He can still reach another level, and is in line for a leap regardless of who is under center. Russell Wilson supported a top-20 fantasy wide receiver every year from 2015 to 2022 (Courtland Sutton was the WR21 in 15 games with Wilson starting last year). Justin Fields helped DJ Moore finish as the WR6 last year in Chicago. Pickens is far and away the most talented skill player in Pittsburgh, and will be the focal point of Arthur Smith’s offense, just as AJ Brown was when they were together in Tennessee. Pickens is currently being drafted as the WR28 and 60th player overall. Anticipate him joining the likes of Chris Godwin, Deebo Samuel and Calvin Ridley as year-three breakout wide receivers.

Running back handcuffing is an essential strategy in fantasy football drafts given the nature of the position. Simply put, top running backs touch the ball a lot and take a pounding. As such, they’re more prone to injury than the other skill positions. Like opening an insurance policy, handcuffing is a way we can protect our top investments.

While NFL preseason stats ultimately don’t matter in the quest for a fantasy football championship, that’s not to say it those numbers are entirely useless to track. Exhibition action gives us a glimpse into unearthed gems and allows gamers to recalibrate late-round flier rankings. After all, just getting an opportunity to showcase one’s talent can be the difference in making a roster or not, which sometimes is enough to create an inroad for a chance during the regular season.
With that established, here’s a spin around the noteworthy performances — good and otherwise — over the first week of the preseason.

Zero Running Back (Zero RB for short) has become a trendy fantasy football draft strategy in the past few years. Zero RB was created with the idea that running backs in the NFL are largely replaceable and have high injury risk, so it is not worth spending early-round picks on players who are likely to get hurt.
