I have left out some running backs I expect to be absent this week, including Antonio Gibson, Nick Chubb and Latavius Murray. Use these player salaries as context for building your Week 7 OwnersBox lineups. There is some great value at the running back position. It’s difficult to predict a players performance in a single week. But some players have great matchups in Week 5 or have risen on their respective depth charts with more opportunity.
- Matt Rhule made it clear that he wants to get Hubbard more involved, I believe him. I expect Hubbard to see 20+ touches this week.
- Elijah Mitchell is Kyle Shanahan’s guy, as long as he’s healthy he is a must start player in all formats.
- D’Ernest Johnson and Demetric Felton will likely split duties without Chubb or Hunt and I think it leads to lackluster fantasy production.
