Fantasy Football’s 35 Best RBs for the Wild Card Round
The fantasy playoffs are over and now we have the real NFL playoffs so we can play more fantasy football! That’s why they play the game, right? So can we play dress up? I say yes. Below we have the ranking of the running backs in the first round of the playoffs. We have six games in three days this weekend and a lot of good running backs to choose from. There is both the rushing leader in James Cook and the fantasy leader in Christian McCaffrey (who wasn’t hurt!). Many of fantasy’s biggest studs like Bijan Robinson, Jahmyr Gibbs, Jonathan Taylor and De’Von Achane will all be watching from their couches. Jacobs has been playing with knee and ankle issues for about a month, but was able to take Week 18 off to rest for the playoffs. He probably won’t be 100%, but he has played well despite the injuries. Jordan played decently with Nick Chubb and Woody Marks dealing with injuries, but was later forced out of the Week 18 game due to his own ankle injury. British Brooks did the most work behind Jordan, with Nick Chubb inactive. Marks is still the leader, but whoever gets that backup job should see enough work to have some value in deeper playoff leagues.
