This season, Zachary Krueger will use the RotoViz Screener Tool to evaluate player red-zone opportunity. Understanding how teams deploy their red-zone personnel, and who they give red-zone opportunities to, can offer a valuable edge over your opponents. This weekly Red Zone Report aims to give you that exact edge.

J.K. Dobbins
Fantasy managers invested significant draft capital in Ravens rookie J.K. Dobbins this offseason (60.4 ADP, FFPC). Given the lofty expectations set for the rookie, it’s safe to say he was disappointing early on. Through the first 10 weeks of the season, Dobbins averaged just 8.6 opportunities/gm and 8.5 PPR/gm.
Facing competition from veterans Mark Ingram and Gus Edwards in what appears to be a three-headed RBBC, Dobbins’ lack of opportunities early on had his managers doubting his ability to return value on his fifth-round draft capital.
