Week 12 – PPR RB Rankings

CLICK HERE FOR CURRENT WEEKLY FANTASY ADVICE

Dexter McCluster @ Steelers -

I’ve yet to warm up to using Dexter McCluster as a full time flex play in PPR leagues, but he’s close to that level in at least twelve team leagues. The Chiefs will likely use McCluster more down the stretch as they are likely to fall behind in most games, thus relying on the passing game in garbage time.

McCluster was a lot early on against the Patriots and finished with eight carries for 39 yards and two receptions for nine yards in the passing game. Before McCluster can be relied upon, we need to see him total around six receptions like he did against the Broncos the week before. At this time, McCluster is worth holding on your roster but give someone else a shot to start this week, unless your desperate.

Beanie Wells @ Rams –

After a solid start to the season, Beanie Wells hasn’t been the same running back since suffering a knee injury about a month ago. Watching last week against the 49ers however, he did look like he was starting to play better as he had a couple nice runs against the leagues toughest run defense, as he averaged over four yards per carry for the first time in a game since wee four against the Giants.

The Cardinals will continue to “manage” his workload for the remainder of the year, but Wells should make for a solid flex play this week, even in PPR leagues. St. Louis is bad against the run and of late they’ve regressed as a team, losing to the Seahawks by a wide margin last week. Wells should be good for at least 70 yards on the ground and a score.
