START

ANDRE ELLINGTON, RUNNING BACK, ARIZONA CARDINALS

I have to admit something. I am getting a little bit of a man crush for Andre Ellington, at least fantasy football-wise. Even though he is not the starting running back in Arizona, he is certainly more of a threat than Rashard Mendenhall. In fact, Ellington has more yards than Mendenhall in almost half the carries. He brings an explosiveness in both the running game and the passing game. Ellington will find a way to get his yards. He has started to see time in a Wildcat formation for the Cardinals. This cannot be a bad thing.

At some point, the Cardinals are going to realize just what they have in Ellington and get him the ball more often. It could be this week against the weakest rush defense in the league – the Jacksonville Jaguars.
