Scouting report

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Oakland Raiders

The Eagles play Christmas night (Monday), and anybody with Eagles players must be aware that Doug Pederson has hinted this week of resting starters if/when the Eagles lock up home field advantage. If the Vikings lose Saturday (a long shot at Green Bay without Aaron Rodgers), the Eagles will have already done that. Otherwise, the Eagles currently have the third-highest team total in Vegas this week. However, at this point, Blount is not playable, with three straight weeks of fewer than 10 touches.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at New York Giants

The Eagles still have an implied team total in Vegas in the top half of teams this week despite starting back-up QB Nick Foles, and the loss of their starting QB could mean increased volume for the backfield. Here's the problem: LeGarrette Blount has played fewer than 20% of snaps in back-to-back weeks. That's a recipe for disaster if you are pondering starting him this week. Don't do it.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Los Angeles Rams

The Eagles-Rams game has the third-highest over/under in Vegas this week at 48 points. Here's how the backfield touches have broken down over the past three weeks: LeGarrette Blount-45, Jay Ajayi-34, Corey Clement-30. However, we saw a shift last week with Ajayi playing 41% of snaps and leading the Eagles backfield with 12 touches. Nevertheless, that's still not a lot of touches. This is a three-man RBBC and should be avoided in the fantasy playoffs.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Seattle Seahawks

The Eagles have the fourth-highest implied team total of the week at 26.25 points; however, the backfield split since Jay AJayi joined the Eagles is killing Blount's value. This is a full RBBC, with Blount averaging just 5.7 PPR points over the past three games. The matchup is also not a good one, as Seattle is top-five in aFPA versus RBs, and the Eagles could rely on Carson Wentz to attack a banged up Seahawks secondary. We can't recommend an Eagles RB this week.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Chicago Bears

Eagles RB touches since they traded for Jay Ajayi: LeGarrette Blount-22, Corey Clement-19, Ajayi-16. This appears to be a three-way RBBC. The Bears are also below-average in our aFPA vs. RB rankings. However, Blount is just not getting enough volume to be viable. Therefore, we are not considering Blount a starting option in Week 12.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Dallas Cowboys

Reports out of Philadelphia are Jay Ajayi will be more involved in the offense this week as the Eagles head to Dallas for Sunday Night Football. That means it's hard to expect enough volume from Blount to warrant fantasy starting consideration. Bench him. He's a touchdown-or-bust proposition.

PHI RB LeGarrette Blount - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Denver Broncos

The acquisition of Jay Ajayi by the Eagles clouds everything this week for LeGarrette Blount and also moving forward. The Broncos are also first in our aFPA vs. RB rankings, foreshadowing a tough day for Blount and a potentially even more segmented pool of backfield touches. He's best positioned on your bench this week.
