I’m generally not an advocate for spending so little money at the running back position, especially in a crowded backfield. However, it’s hard to ignore a near perfect situation. The Panthers opponent this week is the Atlanta Falcons, and they rank dead last in the NFL against running backs, giving up the most fantasy points to the position.

Not to mention, when healthy, Jonathan Stewart has far and away been the best Panthers running back this season, as his Rushing NEP is twice as good as teammate DeAngelo Williams'.

He’s looked nimble and spry when he’s been on the field, and he’s also Carolina’s best pass-catcher out of the backfield, making him an attractive play in DraftKings because of full PPR scoring.

Keep an eye on Stewart this weekend, as he was limited in practice on Thursday. Early reports indicate that he will play Sunday, barring any type of setback. If he’s good to go, I’d fire him up if your looking for someone in his price range.
