Last year was all about who lucked into Devonta Freeman since he was only the #2 back in Atlanta to start the season. Mark Ingram showed up as the most consist with 15 fantasy points and yet never managed to top 25 points in any game. The youngsters showed up fairly well thanks to Todd Gurley and Karlos Williams but look at just how rare it was to get a good game even half of the time from running backs. The shift to committee backfields and specialist roles have left the position short of many difference makers or even just players that you can rely on for a solid weekly score in most games.
