David Johnson, RB, Arizona Cardinals

Chris Johnson might be the more popular pickup and reccommendation -- and for good reason, as he will likely be Arizona's starting running back while Andre Ellington misses time with a PCL injury.

After Ellington's exit, it was Chris Johnson who saw seven carries. Current backup David Johnson saw just one touch all game. That touch did turn into a 55-yard touchdown reception, one of those plays that looks like it was on fast forward.

Arizona gets to face the Bears in Chicago this weekend, and they were certainly a juicy fantasy matchup for running backs last year. They also ranked 27th in our Adjusted Defensive Rushing NEP per play metric.

Fully expect Chris Johnson to see more opportunities than David Johnson, but with the youngster's ability and this matchup, he could give a nice return on just one play.
