The preseason injury bug bit again over the weekend, as Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins went down with a season-ending injury. Our analysts provided the fantasy football impact of the injury (article|podcast).
With now three running backs having their seasons ended before they began, fantasy players that already drafted are left looking for replacement options on the waiver wire. If you are a manager that lost Dobbins, it’s certainly worth paying up for teammate Gus Edwards, who our analysts believe should be a solid RB2 this season.
However, since Edwards may have already been drafted in your league, or at minimum will be a popular waiver wire target for others, we’re providing additional options for you to add. Our writers have shared their top waiver wire targets for those that had drafted Dobbins. These are options for shallow and deep leagues.
