Fantasy Football: Redrafting the First Round After 5 Weeks

7. LeSean McCoy, RB, Buffalo Bills

Yet another former Eagle who had been left for dead by much of the fantasy community, LeSean McCoy is enjoying another resurgence in Buffalo following the firing of offensive coordinator Greg Roman. He is currently fourth in the NFL in rushing behind the three backs we've already profiled, and he's seen 19 or more touches in every contest this season.

Oh, and he's produced despite facing three top eight defenses in Adjusted Rushing NEP per rush, scoring double-digit fantasy points in each of his first five contests.

McCoy is currently second in the NFL in Rushing NEP behind only Elliott, and he's sixth in the NFL in Rushing NEP per rush. He's also contributed as a receiver, and his 19 receptions are third in the league for running backs.

With that being said, the lack of weapons on offense is a concern, even if workload and ability aren't. Without Sammy Watkins, the passing game has been inept at times, and Tyrod Taylor has thrown for less than 125 yards in three games already this season. The extra attention on McCoy has at times impacted his efficiency, making even more remarkable his early season success.

While there are certainly red flags surrounding McCoy, he is well worth a first-round pick in a draft do-over.
