BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: This suggestion is not based upon a belief that Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll will elevate running back Mike Davis into weekly RB1 responsibilities. Instead, the rationale for adding him is based upon the likelihood that Carroll will also fail to entrust Chris Carson with a consistent feature back role.
It now appears that Davis is a legitimate candidate to receive touches on a regular basis, despite the uncertainty that exists with Carroll's preferences for the workload distribution of his backfield. Davis' unexpected emergence into fantasy relevance occurred when he received 25 touches, and proceeded to accrue 124 total yards in Week 4. His favorable usage and output in Week 5 (14 touches/75 total yards/ 1 touchdown) fortified his chances of retaining an ongoing role. Particularly since the essentially forgotten Rashaad Penny did not touch the ball. Davis has emerged as a genuine target for anyone who is searching for a flex option.
