C.J. Anderson

This game could be a coming out party of sorts for Anderson after a big finish to last season. First and foremost, he’s a phenomenal running back. Anderson has great vision, makes quick cuts, and he runs with power. He breaks tackles, and he has a nose for the end zone.

What really amplifies Anderson’s value as a fantasy football player is his role in the offense on third downs. When you are a running back that can also catch the ball and pick up blitzes, you’re going to eat up snaps. If you drafted Anderson, slide him into your starting lineup and don’t think twice about it.

He’s going to ball out on Sunday.
