Considering that the average fantasy football league consists of 10-12 teams, one should be able to find solid starting/flex RB options within the top 35 or so. You start running into backup/handcuff territory after that and whether it’s due to an injury or simply outplaying their spot on the depth chart,

Running backs have traditionally been the choice if you've owned the No. 1 overall pick in your Fantasy football drafts. However, it's an injury-prone position because of all the high-impact contact and occasionally a wide receiver or even a quarterback (depending on your league settings) comes along to insert themselves in the conversation.
