Duke Johnson (RB, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR Leagues

OWNED IN: 47% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Johnson is another player who's hype took time to materialize. Johnson is coming off his best game to date as a pro with 8 rushes for 31 yards and 9 receptions for 85 yards and a touchdown.

Duke is still stuck in a pass catching role behind Isaiah Crowell but seeing as the Cleveland Browns project to be down often this year, that role is likely the more valuable of the two. This week, Duke's going to be seeing the Raven's defense- a team that should've been a good run defense but so far has been average.

Baltimore's currently allowing on average 40 yards per game to running backs, at a DVOA rank of 21st making them amongst the easiest teams in the league to throw on when the target is a RB.
