BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams has now elevated beyond being a mere roster stash after being entrusted with a team-high nine carries, and bolting for 61 yards (6.8 YPC) in Week 8. He has now capitalized on his opportunities for two consecutive weeks, after averaging 5.5 YPC with his 13 attempts.
He has easily performed more proficiently than Corey Clement during that two-game span (12 carries/12 yards/1.0 YPC), while Wendell Smallwood compensated for an underwhelming performance on the ground (8 carries/24 yards/3.0 YPC), by generating a 36-yard touchdown reception. Even though that was also a byproduct of poor coverage by Jacksonville. Once the Eagles return from their bye, Adams should operate in an elevated role, and could easily secure the most carries on a weekly basis. Potential owners should not be concerned about Clement, or the potential return of 35-year old Darren Sproles, and instead should focus on adding Adams to their rosters.
