Fantasy Football Player Notes

The Broncos have been forcing the issue with J.K. Dobbins. Denver has been leaning on him since Week 3, as he has averaged 17 touches and 59.6 total yards, but that doesn't mean it has been a good idea. Since Week 3, Dobbins has had a 45.3% snap rate, 60.5% of the rushing attempts, and a 14.8% route share. Among 42 qualifying backs, Dobbins has been limping along in the efficiency departments, sitting at 31st in explosive run rate and 39th in missed tackle rate. Dobbins remains a touchdown-dependent flex. He's a bust if he doesn't get into the endzone again this week. I don't see him maximizing his touches in this horrible matchup. Seattle has limited rushers to the seventh-lowest explosive run rate, the tenth-fewest yards before contact per attempt, and the sixth-lowest missed tackle rate.

After seeing at least four targets in every game he has been active for this season, last week RJ Harvey goose egged in the passing game with only one target and zero production through the air. For a struggling passing offense, it was head-scratching. Harvey has averaged 8.8 touches and 47 total yards as Denver's passing down back. Harvey has only seen 15.8% of the rushing attempts while logging a 42.6% route share and 17.5% target share. Harvey is back on the PPR flex radar this week against a Seattle pass defense that has allowed the fifth-most receptions to backs and the fifth-most receiving fantasy points per game to the position.
