Preseason football is in full swing and so is fantasy football draft season. After spending the entire offseason prognosticating about running back roles and draft values, we have finally gotten our first glimpses into how players may be used. Or at least we think we have.
Who will lead the committee in Philadelphia? It looks like it could be Kenneth Gainwell, if you subscribe to the idea that coaches won’t play their starters in the first preseason game. Then again, maybe Rashaad Penny and D’Andre Swift both needed to play because they were new to the system. Either way, fantasy football managers took note and draft values changed. Javonte Williams took snaps this weekend, which is an encouraging sign, and a couple of veteran free-agent signings also impacted draft day values.
Here are the biggest risers and fallers in average draft position (ADP) since August 14. You may have to move a few players up your board if you want to draft them, while a few others are falling into more of a value tier.
