Draft Note by Brandon Niles
Week 14 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
David Johnson only has 10 carries over his last three games and he was relegated to just 23% of the team’s offensive snaps last week against the Rams. He’s clearly lost the starting job to Kenyan Drake and should be left on the bench until further notice. He’s droppable in most leagues.

Draft note
The touches (308) were there for Johnson in 2018, but his efficiency was down across the board. Most of the blame can be directed as the offense as a whole, but things should be a lot better this season with the arrival of Air Raid guru Kliff Kingsbury, dual-threat quarterback Kyler Murray and an improved receiving corps. This should put Johnson in a better position to succeed. Murray’s arrival should especially help. During the rookie seasons of Cam Newton, Robert Griffin III and Russell Wilson, their teams saw an increase of 18% in rushing attempts, an increase of 48% in rushing yards, an increase of 151% in rushing touchdowns and an increase of 26% in team yards per carry. Johnson’s ADP should be solidly in the first round.
