Bobby Sylvester’s Running Back Rankings and Notes (Fantasy Football)

As is always the case, the preseason has thrown a wrench in some of our ideas about certain running backs. For instance, Marlon Mack seemed to be an early-down only back, but now he appears to be morphing into a three-down bell-cow for one of the top offenses in the league. Carlos Hyde was said to be in a timeshare with Damien Williams but he is on the verge of being cut with Darwin Thompson emerging as everyone’s favorite sleeper. With all of these changes in mind, I wanted to give you all a fresh set of rankings.

Beyond reading notes and looking at rankings, I’d encourage you to take a moment to look at all the tools on our website (that some on Reddit have deemed “cheating”) as they will assuredly give you an upper hand over your league-mates. Our Draft Simulation Software is my personal favorite, followed by customizable cheat sheets, our auction calculator and the expert consensus rankings that most know our site for. Make sure to quickly import your team for free into MyPlaybook, which is like having a team of experts in your war room, and while you’re at it, give my podcast a listen if you’d like. Thanks for visiting FantasyPros; we look forward to helping you win a few fantasy championships this season! Now let’s get onto the rankings.
