In recent years, fantasy football owners have been taught that if you lock up a top running back you must solidify his value with a handcuff. Not anymore.The landscape of the NFL backfield has been changing drastically. I’ve said many times in the past that the “true” three-down back is disappearing due to injuries and teams going towards a more pass-oriented offense. Head coaches, while having enough confidence giving their main back the ball, don’t want their prized offensive piece running on fumes by the time playoffs roll around.
