Fantasy Impact:

Many expect Vaughn to come in and compete for the starting job with incumbent starter Ronald Jones II. While Vaughn should get his opportunities as the season goes along, one has to think Jones has done enough in the last two years to be named the “starter.” Both Jones and Vaughn could certainly have standalone value, but unless one breaks out ahead of the other, expect both to remain in the RB3/RB4 conversation. That being said, Vaughn remains a valuable handcuff to Jones in a Tom Brady-led offense, and should be targeted in rookie dynasty drafts as a top-10 RB.
