Marlon Mack (RB, IND) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~80

CURRENT ADP: ~95

ANALYSIS: After being hyped considerably as a rookie, Marlon Mack acted as a complementary option to veteran Frank Gore for the majority of the 2017 season. With Gore moving on to the Miami Dolphins, the backfield has been Mack's to lose as he's competed against Nyheim Hines, Robert Turbin and Christine Michael for the starting running back job.

Mack is an explosive weapon who accumulated almost 600 yards from scrimmage in 2017 and scored four times in the process. Mack showcased some of his trademark explosiveness from USF and will look to improve in 2018 while playing alongside quarterback Andrew Luck for the first time. Mack has a three-down skill set and should be the leader of the backfield to enter the season. As long as he is healthy (currently nursing a hamstring injury), he should be given the chance to be a workhorse back.

Fantasy owners should consider his current 9th round ADP an absolute steal due to the nature of the offense that he will play in as well as his receiving upside and high weekly floor. Although he carries some injury and committee risks, Mack has enough talent to put all concerns to bed and is virtually a must-draft option in the mid-rounds of fantasy drafts, especially for owners who shied away from early round running backs.
