Tony Pollard

He's getting a ton of touches and is on the field for almost every play, so expect steady points and treat him as a reliable starter. The matchup looks friendly and that heavy usage lowers bust risk even if he doesn't light up the box score often — one source mentioned Tennessee for Week 3, so double-check your matchup, but the pick still makes sense.

He’s the lead back and had 19 touches and almost every snap in Week 1, so he should give you steady points. The offensive line looked shaky and the Rams can make running hard, so if you need a big game pick someone flashier, otherwise put Pollard in.

Spears is injured, so Pollard should get most of the touches this week — start him in most lineups. Only sit him if you have another running back you think will score a lot more, since Denver’s run defense is very tough and could limit big games.

Yes — pick Pollard in the mid-rounds; he can be a solid option early in the season. Just be aware he might split time with other backs, isn’t as sharp as before, and his touchdowns can swing a lot.
