Darren Sproles

Sproles may be getting up there in age, but he is still one of the most electric players in the NFL and makes for an awesome RB3 or RB4 in deeper fantasy leagues.

Doug Pederson loves running backs who can catch the ball out of the backfield, which is one of Sproles’ top qualities. With his versatility as a runner, a pass-catcher, and a return specialist, don’t be surprised if Sproles has himself another Pro Bowl season in 2016.

It also helps that Ryan Mathews may have to surrender some of his valuable snaps after suffering an ankle injury working out in San Diego last week, which could give Sproles more opportunities to work his magic.
