Rams announce that RB Daryl Richardson will be their starter over Isaiah Pead, he was their 7th round pick last season. Pead was their 2nd.
Fantasy Impact:
It's not really a surprise as HC Jeff Fisher and the team hinted at this recently. Pead is suspended for game one anyway, but aside from that, Richardson has been better in camp. We rank Richardson 29th among our running backs, which puts him in the RB3 zone, with ADP of the 8th round. Pead will likely still steal some work away when he returns, but for now, Richardson is the guy to target in drafts.
