Frank Gore (and Adam Gase) really spoiled 2018's coming out party for Kenyan Drake.

With Lamar Miller (and even Damien Williams) out of the way, it was time for Drake to shine. Sure, the Dolphins brought in Gore, but the 35-year-old didn't seem to scare many people off of Drake, who was going as a third-round pick in fantasy football.

Gore not only ended up cutting into Drake's workload on the ground, but he led the Dolphins with 156 carries, compared to only 120 for Drake.

That put Gore 22nd among all running backs with a 42.1% rush attempt market share. That market share is also the fourth-highest among backs set to hit unrestricted free agency this offseason.

Gore has said he plans on playing another year, but as a free agent, it remains to be seen where that happens. With the late-season emergence of rookie Kalen Ballage, it looks unlikely for Miami to be that place.

The Dolphins' insistence on using Drake as a more complementary pass-catching back does limit the upside of his workload, but it's also worth noting that they will be under a new regime, with Adam Gase gone and Brian Flores in as head coach. That gives Drake a much higher ceiling than we saw last year.

With the chance that Drake's role remains similar, or that the new administration may be lower on him, Ballage is also a very interesting hedge, having notched 28 carries and 6 targets over the final three weeks of the season.

With two backs that appear more than capable of filling the void left by Gore, it doesn't look likely that Miami will bring in anyone to play a significant role in the backfield. That makes both Drake and Ballage's fantasy football draft costs worth keeping an eye on this offseason.
