Jordan Wilkins (RB, IND) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Jordan Wilkins shows why you cannot get too caught up in hype. Remember when everyone was going ga-ga over Nyheim Hines this offseason? Well, if you stuck with us and had a premium RotoBaller membership, then you read how Wilkins was the real steal of fantasy drafts and the runner best suited to provide value in Indy.

Marlon Mack was not present at Wednesday’s practice and it seems his hamstring injury will keep him out of Week 1’s game against Cincinnati. I don’t love picturing Wilkins running against Geno Atkins, but the opportunity is there for him to take the “1A” spot in this RB committee by the horns. You want to be a week early on these.
