Gus Edwards

ESPN Ravens Insider Jamison Hensley believes third-year RB Gus Edwards will make the 53-man roster this season.

Fantasy Impact

The Ravens drafted Ohio State RB J.K. Dobbins in the second-round of this year’s Draft, but Hensley still believes there’s a place for Edwards on this team. The third-year bruising 6-foot-1, 238 pound back has quietly gained 1,429 yards with a 5.3 average on the ground. He’ll likely play 2nd or 3rd fiddle to Mark Ingram II and/or J.K. Dobbins, but he could be utilized in games the Ravens pull away in or at the goal-line. Edwards is really just a late-round handcuff, but should be considered for your roster as he is a part of the best running game in the NFL.
