Jerome Ford fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Jerome Ford for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford will likely get his last crack at the starting job for his team in Week 6 when the Browns take on the Philadelphia Eagles. They're a defense allowing 21.0 fantasy points per game to opposing running backs this season, which is around the league median.

Ford had some great moments in 2023 and was a solid fantasy starter for a good stretch, but those days are now behind us. He hasn't been as stellar this season, and neither have the Browns. He's still the RB23 in full-PPR scoring though. His touches have been strangely limited, and he hasn't carried the ball more than 12 times in a game.
He has scored totals of 18.9 and 15.5 PPR fantasy points this season, and had seven targets each in those two games. He can have another productive game if he scores a touchdown -- though he only has one on the year -- or if he can produce a nice reception total.
His last ride will be an interesting one, and he'll likely need five or more catches to get fantasy managers' teams into gear, but there is plenty of fuel left in the tank. Seems that Cleveland would be better served to put their foot on the gas a little more with his usage -- his efficiency is pretty good at 5.21 yards per carry, and his mileage is low.
