BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount has magically maintained fantasy relevance for what feels like six decades and no one understands how. He's the prototypical bowling ball style running back who brings real life value to NFL teams. In a weird, infuriating way for fantasy, his 2.5 yards per carry basically says it all. He manages to power and plummet his way into the end zone, boosting his fantasy output in the process.
But hey, points are points. After scoring two touchdowns in Week 5, Blount will look to get some more goal line work coming out of the bye. That's really all you'd be hoping for with Blount. His rushing yardage isn't going to help you and he has no presence in the passing game. And yet, he's every bit as involved as Kerryon Johnson in terms of rushing attempts. Feel free to take a gamble on LeGarrette Blount if all you need is a desperation shot at a touchdown.
