46% to 42%

Why

  • Rico Dowdle is RB51 on our rest of season ranking: 3.6 projected PPR points a game over his 10 games left through Week 17, 4.8 a game below a replacement RB (8.4).
  • Week 7: 7.4 projected PPR points (@ NO), RB23 on this week's board. That defense allows the 1st most fantasy points to his position.
  • His share of carries and targets held at 42% in Week 6 (46% before it).
  • He is listed questionable.
  • Across Sleeper leagues he was dropped 40,790 times and added 63,380 times in the busiest 24 hours we measured this week.

Rest of season figures are projected PPR points a game from Week 7 through Week 17, measured against a replacement level starter at his position. Shares compare his last game with his games before it.

Who to add instead

Add Blake Corum (LAR) instead, 7.3 projected PPR points a game rest of season. He drew 199,720 adds in his busiest 24 hours this waiver cycle.
