RB Committee Situations To Watch In 2020 Fantasy Football

The San Francisco 49ers traded Matt Breida to Miami, changing the outlook in their backfield. NFL playoff hero Raheem Mostert could be the 49ers' main man, but Tevin Coleman remains in the mix.
"Mostert was an absolute stud down the stretch last season and should lead the way," Smith said in his detailed scouting report on the San Francisco RBs. "Mostert is the favorite to stay healthy and secure most of the early-down work."Â Â
Smith analyzed nine other teams with crowded backfields and spotlighted a darkhorse candidate to surpass 240 carries. It is essential to dive into his RB committee primer if you want to execute an ideal Fantasy football draft.
