What changed
J.K. Dobbins is now ranked first among Denver Broncos running backs according to our usage depth chart. This chart orders players by snaps and touches during recent games instead of the official team listing. Dobbins was previously RB2 on our chart, though the club lists him as RB1.
Through Week 5, Dobbins is averaging 2 targets and 15.3 carries a game. In the latest contest, he played 52% of the snaps. Across the specific window we weigh, he has played 45% of the snaps and accounted for 60% of the touches in the backfield per our usage depth chart.

Who he passed
RJ Harvey has moved to RB2, seeing 39% of snaps across the window. According to our usage depth chart, which is built from snap counts and play by play, these shifts usually track changes in snaps first and production second. The next game will determine if this role holds or slips back.
The rest of the room
Tyler Badie is currently RB3 on the Broncos chart, having played 15% of snaps across the window. Badie is listed Questionable. Because the order is determined by snaps and touches, players can climb the chart in a single game when the workload shifts.
What it means for fantasy
Fantasy points follow opportunity. A player at the top of a usage chart has the most snaps and touches at the position for his club, which is a steady predictor of points. If Dobbins is on a waiver wire, he is worth a look this week.
