BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 53% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: I know I'm breaking my self-imposed 50-percent ownership rule, but this one very well merits the exception. Le'Veon Bell has been far from an otherworld rusher this season even playing for an incredibly great offense in Kansas City. In his eight games with the Chiefs, Bell is averaging a measly 6.8 PPR per game and has topped 10 points just twice. He's played 35+ percent of snaps in only one game. Oh, by the way, RB1 Clyde Edwards-Helaire was forced out of Sunday's game due to injury.
As young kids would say, "that's it, that's the blurb". We don't know a lot about Edward-Helaire's injury other than it was bad enough to put CEH on the sidelines midway through Sunday's game after 45 snaps of play. With Kansas City as the no. 1 team in the league and not playing for anything anymore, odds are the Chiefs give CEH some rest going forward, starting in W16. Enter Mighty Bell.
Bell had his best game of the season against the Saints yesterday, even though he just played in 32 percent of his team's total snaps. He finished with 14.6 PPR points which translated from 15 carries for 62 yards and a touchdown, and a single 14-yard reception. I know that it will be hard to trust a seemingly-done Bell ROS, but again, his/KC's situation calls for this move.
You won't find Bell in most WW pools, but if you do you should lose no time adding him and playing him at the FLEX spot next week. The Falcons have stopped fantasy RBs at a relatively good rate this season (10th-best defense against RBs), but the last three RB1s that Atlanta has faced (Alvin Kamara, Austin Ekeler, and Leonard Fournette) all finished with 17.7+ PPR points and 79+ yards or 2 TDs. Massive hit-spot for Bell. Add-and-play him without any single doubt, no matter your league's format.
