Jerome Ford FAAB Recommendation: 60-90% “Football sucks sometimes. Nick Chubb, undeniably one the most electric players in the NFL, is all but guaranteed to miss the rest of the season after suffering a gruesome lower-body injury on Monday Night Football. Jerome Ford, a sparingly used second-year back out of Alabama, is in line to receive the bulk of the work going forward in Cleveland, with Pierre Strong Jr. set to serve in a complementary role. We can feel fairly confident Ford will have the first crack at a lead-back role. He was the only other RB to play in Week 1 (40% snaps played, 15 carries for 36 yards), and he played the most snaps in Week 2 after the Chubb injury (43 for Ford, 13 for Strong). Whether he’s talented enough to hold off competition from Strong or potential free agents (Kareem Hunt, Leonard Fournette) remains to be seen, but his opportunity and apparent trust from the Browns’ organization is ultimately worth betting on. I’m comfortable taking a risk with ~60-90% of my FAAB on Ford, who immediately projects in the RB2 range with weekly RB1 upside. Finding a clear-cut handcuff off the wire set to take on a starting role for the rest of the season is a rare occurrence in fantasy football. If you have the FAAB and could use an RB, be ready to capitalize.” For the full analysis on week 3 waivers, visit the link in our story 👀 #nfl #fantasyfootball #waiverwire #clevelandbrowns
