Darren Sproles and Corey Clement can be lumped together because most believe they represent the exact same amount of value to most fantasy owners in 2019. The return of Darren Sproles was a welcome and unexpected surprise this off-season, but his injury woes and the talent that’s ahead of him on the depth chart should relegate him to a waiver wire pick-up in most formats.

Corey Clement is a player with the proven potential to be a game-breaking talent (as showcased in his Super Bowl 42 performance), but he’s also a player with a nagging injury history that can’t be ignored.

Both of these guys will make valuable waiver wire pickups should anything happen to either Howard or Sanders, but unless you’re playing in a league that scores return yards/return TD’s there isn’t much standalone value for either of them.

2019 Projected Stats: (Sproles: 400 Rush Yds/3 TD’s; Clement: 300 Rush Yds/2 TD’s)
