Factoid: Isiah Pacheco
The season is days away, and I notice that the opener includes a couple of players of particular importance to me. Isiah Pacheco and David Montgomery are the two running backs that I feel are the most undervalued in fantasy drafts. Those guys are key to my championship hopes. more »

I get nervous selecting running backs from bad teams. If a team or offense is truly putrid, how often is it going to get anywhere close to the end zone? And with that in mind, how good can a running back like James Conner be? more »

Factoid: James Conner
We've expressed some negative feelings regarding Arizona this season. They've shed a lot of talent since the end of last year; more all the time, with the release of DeAndre Hopkins. Kyler Murray may not be healthy at the start of the season. Is there value in this offense? more »

Factoid: Bad team backs
I always get nervous selecting running backs from lousy teams – like James Conner, Cam Akers and Rachaad White this year. Those guys are starters who should get plenty of touches, but can they overcome the crappy situations around them? more »

Arizona Cardinals running back JAMES CONNER and kicker MATT PRATER are both listed as questionable heading into tonight’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Conner reportedly as a better chance of… More playing tonight, while the Cardinals are expected to elevate kicker RODRIGO BLANKENSHIP from the practice squad to the active roster sometime today (a bad sign for Prater).

Fantasy News: Short-yardage rushing
Jacoby Brissett has been better than I was expecting as a fill-in quarterback for the Browns. In general, he’s been able to operate the offense. And he’s been particularly good on quarterback sneaks. more »

Arizona Cardinals running back JAMES CONNER is expected to miss Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks due to a rib injury. Conner hasn’t practiced this week, increasing the expectation that he… More won’t take the field on Sunday.

James Conner put up big numbers last year, but he also has missed at least two games in all five years he’s been in the pros. That makes the backup running back job in Arizona one of the more important camp battles in the league. more »

Around the NFL: Darrel Williams
I have a new favorite last-round pick. Darrel Williams. I think he’s going to win the backup tailback job in Arizona, and he’ll be pretty productive when he’s in there. more »

Cardinals sign former KC running back Williams
The Arizona Cardinals signed 26-year-old former Kansas City running back DARREL WILLIAMS earlier this week. Williams is entering his fifth NFL season after setting several career highs last season in Kansas… More City. With former running back CHASE EDMONDS now in Miami, Arizona needed a proven pass-catching back to pair with starter JAMES CONNER.
