It’s no secret that running backs are HUGE in fantasy football! While wide receivers have become more popular and have become more consistent points scorers in the game, it’s still incredibly important to have a solid stud and good depth at the running back position.

Here are 10 you should take a peek at:

1. Knile Davis of the Green Bay Packers, he was just traded to the Pack. He will be fresh and get a lot of carries for their weak running game.
2. Chris Ivory of the Jacksonville Jaguars.  Now healthy, Ivory will get the bulk of carries for his team.
3. Jeremy McKinnon of the undefeated Minnesota Vikings.  Had a slow start after AP went out, but look for him to pick it up.
4. The Detroit Lions recently added Justin Forsett and he should have some tread on his tires.
5. Jay Ajayi of the Miami Dolphins ran all over Pittsburgh last week, definitely worth a look!
6. Washington Redskins Matt Jones is starting to show signs of being the next special back for this team.
7. Many people have written off LaMar Miller  of the Houston Texans, he still has a lot of potential.
8. Terrence West is now the number one guy for the Baltimore Ravens.
9. Not sure what the Chicago Bears are doing with rookie Jordan Howard, but keep an eye on him.
10. Oakland Raiders Duane Washington has emerged for this future Las Vegas team.
