Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season was the poster child for Zero-RB builds, as a ton of backup RBs were not only were given a chance to see the field, but also capitalized on their opportunities in some huge ways. Some of the names we expected, while others came out of nowhere to put up big-time fantasy performances. Team contexts will surely dictate how much work each player receives moving forward, but the fact that they were able to answer the call should excite their team and fantasy managers alike.

Week 7 Bye Weeks:

  • Dallas Cowboys
  • Chicago Bears

Before we dive into the players, just a few reminders about how the article is set up:

  • To be included as a potential add, a player must be rostered in 50% or less of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
  • To be mentioned as a potential drop, a player must be rostered in 50% or more of ESPN or Yahoo leagues
  • FAAB recommendations will be given, but also serve as tiers for leagues without FAAB budgets. The rationale behind FAAB recommendations is: If I had $1,000 in FAAB, what is the absolute most I’d be willing to spend on this player?
  • All positional rankings and statistics are taken from RotoViz’s Monday Review tool
