Nyheim Hines to be big part of Colts' offense?

Throughout OTAs and minicamp, fourth-round rookie running back Nyheim Hines was heavily featured as both a runner and receiver, lining up in the backfield, as a wide receiver, and in the slot. A former wide receiver who converted to running back at North Carolina State, Hines has a real opportunity to carve out a role in an Indianapolis offense that is undergoing a massive overhaul of both scheme and personnel.

Fantasy Impact:

Hines was a favorite of the draft community and just may have landed in an ideal spot. The Colts' backfield is far from settled and Hines could easily have an immediate fantasy impact as a chess piece type of versatile weapon. Hines's dynasty value has moved up into the top-25 of rookie-only drafts and his usage in training camp and the preseason could put him on the redraft radar.
