BALLER MOVE: Target ~185
CURRENT ADP: ~215
ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore has continued to play well. Despite being 35 years old, Gore's lowest yard total on the ground was 853 yards back in 2010. With nine 1,000 yard seasons in his career thus far and coming off of a 961 yard rushing year with the Colts, Gore is expected to be the backup to Kenyan Drake to open up the season for his new team, the Miami Dolphins.
Gore has shown that he can continue to produce at the NFL level; in fact, Gore has never had below 1,000 all-purpose yards in his entire career except for his rookie season. The veteran running back and future Hall-of-Famer may not be a great option out of the gates. However, should the Dolphins lose faith in Drake, who was the third running back on the depth chart to start the 2017 season, Gore will be right there to pick up the slack as a reliable chain-mover and running back with a three-down skill set. For his basement valuation, Gore is an unsexy but solid pick with a last-round lottery ticket selection in 2018.
