Draft note

by John Paulsen

Prior to the Draft, this looked like the perfect landing spot for Harris, who has averaged 319 touches per season and has never missed a game. However, the Chargers drafted Omarion Hampton in the first round, giving him the likely edge to lead this backfield in touches. Harris’s efficiency is nothing to write home about--4.0 yards per carry, 27th (out of 46) in yards after contact per attempt, 17th in broken tackles per attempt--but he is a solid dual-threat who can carry the load if necessary.

Jim Harbaugh said RB Najee Harris will play Friday vs. the Chiefs. Said it’s tough to predict how much he will play.

Related Players: Omarion Hampton, Hassan Haskins

Fantasy Impact:

We would expect to see about the same amount out of Harris that we will for Haskins after the former missed more or less the entirety of training camp. Keep rookie Hampton in play as an RB2.

PIT RB Najee Harris - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Kansas City Chiefs

In a trailing game script, we saw more Jaylen Warren than Najee Harris against Baltimore. The one thing you had been counting on with Harris was that he would have the dominant side of the split, but as we've seen all season Warren continues to be more efficient and also saw more work than Harris. It's a bit of a worrying sign for Harris.

The Chiefs are 1st aFPA against running backs this season, so a touchdown-or-bust Harris becomes even more of a risk in your lineups this week. He's an RB3/flex type play this week with a low floor and limited ceiling. Given the option, I'd rather have Warren this week than Harris. Harris profiles better in standard leagues versus PPR and would likely look elsewhere in PPR.
