Week 7 Running Back Rankings For Fantasy Football: Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, Breece Hall, Dameon Pierce, Brian Robinson

Najee Harris - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Some notable running backs should be back from bye weeks or injuries this week, but the position as a whole is always scarce and banged up. That said, fantasy managers should be prepared to take a deep dive into our Week 7 fantasy football running back rankings, as of October 19th. We're right in the middle of fantasy football season, so winning your matchup has never been more important. Returning injured running backs or guys with new roles like Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, Breece Hall, Dameon Pierce, and Brian Robinson will be factors in Week 7.

Our running back fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison and Andersen Pickard. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.

You should also bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these RB rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis - our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver wire pickups and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have - download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top NFL news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts!

Editor's Note: Our incredible team of writers won two writing awards and received 12 award nominations by the Fantasy Sports Writers Association. A big congrats to our very own Byron Lindeque (Golf) and Jordan McAbee (NASCAR) for both winning Writer Of The Year awards! Be sure to follow RotoBaller's analysis and advice all year long, and win more. Win More With RotoBaller!
