Sit ‘Em #2

Jaguars’ rookie running back T.J. Yeldon has put up decent numbers so far this season but has yet to become the must-start back that a lot of experts think he could be one day.

This is due in large part to his surrounding cast. The Jaguars have been notoriously bad on both sides of the ball for years, and Yeldon can’t change that all by himself.

The fact that he is on the Jaguars and doesn’t have much help in the offense limits his fantasy production and overall value as well.

This being said, he still has put up good enough numbers to be in most owners starting lineups most weeks.

This is one of the weeks I would keep him out of your lineup if you can, though, as he and the Jaguars matchup with Rex Ryan’s revamped Buffalo Bills defense.

The Bills’ defense is one of the best in the league against opposing running backs, and I see Yeldon struggling to get much going against them either this week.

If you can, avoid him in Week 7.
