Chris Ivory (RB, NYJ) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Starting in Seventh Round

CURRENT ADP: Overall #79, RB #29

ANALYSIS: Over the last two seasons, it could be argued that Chris Ivory was the most reliable offensive weapon for the New York Jets. Ivory averaged a very respectable 4.35 YPC over the last two years and topped 800 yards in both seasons.

Heading into 2015, the Jets have upgraded their receiving corps with the addition of Brandon Marshall, and Ivory appears to be leading a backfield that also features an injured Stevan Ridley, an underachieving Bilal Powell and an unclear role for Zac Stacy.

Despite the clutter, Ivory still has the significant edge as he's a proven, durable pass-catching threat out of the backfield, and figures to get at least 200 carries this season. Another thing to remember is that Geno Smith is out for a while, and the Jets may focus on the run more than the pass.

As the 29th running back coming off of the board in the seventh round or later, you could do a lot worse than Ivory. I expect him to finish as a Top 20 rusher this season so grabbing in the later rounds can be a steal. After a strong preseason though, some owners may be aware of this so don't wait too long.
