ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 9, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 – Andre Ellington vs. Dallas

Andre Ellington had another nice game against the Eagles last week, putting up 71 yards and a touchdown on the ground, and adding three receptions and 14 yards as well. He’s been a key cog in the Cardinals’ offense and touched the ball 26 times in the win over Philadelphia.

This week, Ellington faces a Cowboys defense that has been much better against the pass than they’ve been against the run, and Ellington should be in store for another full workload with only Robert Hughes as a secondary back after Stepfan Taylor was hurt last week. Fantasy owners should consider Ellington a must start each week, and we have him as a top ten option in Week 9.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 8, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 – Andre Ellington vs. Philadelphia

Andre Ellington had another nice game last week against the Raiders, finishing with 24 carries for 88 yards, and adding another 72 yards on six receptions. He now ranks fourth in the league among running backs in receiving yards and has demonstrated the kind of versatility that makes guys like Matt Forte so dominant in fantasy leagues. It’s concerning that Ellington doesn’t get goal line looks, but he’s been so good at racking up yards and receptions, that he’s become a must start in fantasy leagues.

The Eagles are allowing over 124 yards per game on the ground and while they’ve only allowed two rushing touchdowns, Ellington’s versatility should help him continue to put up excellent fantasy numbers in Week 8. With a nice matchup, Ellington is a top ten start this week and should be active in all leagues.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 7, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 – Andre Ellington vs. Oakland

Andre Ellington had a nice game against Washington. He didn’t put up big numbers, but he touched the ball 25 times, including six receptions, and ended up with 93 total yards from scrimmage. Ellington’s versatility makes him a great fantasy option, and with his usage rate so high this year, he’s a good start week-to-week.

Against Oakland’s next to last ranked run defense, Ellington should be in for a great day. If he gets the ball anywhere close to the amount of times he’s been touching it, he should be able to put up RB1 numbers in most leagues. We have him as a top ten start this week and he should be in your lineup.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 6, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 – Andre Ellington vs. Washington

Andre Ellington finally showed the game breaking ability this season that he showed a year ago against the Broncos last week. He had only 32 yards on the ground, but he added 102 yards receiving, including an amazing 81 yard catch and run for a touchdown to help Arizona get back into the game. Ellington also had 16 carries and a rushing touchdown, turning in an excellent overall fantasy performance and proving that he remains a key cog in the Cardinal offense.

Ellington will face a Washington defense this week that has actually been decent against the run this year, but with his high usage rate, and a return to his playmaking ability, Ellington is still a solid start this week and should be active in all leagues.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 5, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 – Andre Ellington vs. Denver

Andre Ellington has been a functional fantasy player, totaling 75 yards before the bye against San Francisco, but hasn’t put up the eye-popping numbers that fantasy owners were expecting after a promising rookie year. That being said, he had 18 carries and was targeted four times in the passing game against the 49ers, making him clearly the main cog in the Cardinals rushing attack.

This week, he faces a Broncos team that has been pretty good against the run this year and is one of the harder matchups of the week. Still, the Cardinals will try to grind out the clock against them and should continue to feed Ellington the ball. After a week off to get healthy, Ellington looks like a solid RB2 option in all leagues. His contributions in the passing game could help against a Broncos team known for building leads.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 3, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 – Andre Ellington vs. San Francisco

Andre Ellington got a full workload against the Giants last week, putting up 91 yards on the ground on 15 carries, and adding a reception for 10 yards. This is two weeks in a row where Ellington has been healthy enough to play and has been relied upon as a large part of the offense. While Jonathan Dwyer got the goal line carry, Ellington remains an explosive back, and the one to own for the Cardinals.

Against the 49ers this week, Ellington will wonder which defense he sees. Will it be the 49ers that stuffed Tony Romo and got run over by DeMarco Murray in Week 1, or will it be the defense that stuffed Matt Forte and let Jay Cutler beat them in the second half in Week 2? Time will tell, but Ellington has the kind of skill set that makes him valuable either way, catching passed out of the backfield and having big play ability. Fantasy owners should consider him a low end RB2 this week with a bit of a tough matchup, but still a starter.

ARI RB Andre Ellington - Week 2, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 – Andre Ellington vs. New York Giants

Andre Ellington scared fantasy owners with conflicting reports on his health status leading up to Monday night’s game against the Chargers last week, but he wound up starting anyway and looked fine. He finished with only 53 yards on 13 carries, and only 27 receiving yards. However, he caught five passes, confirming hopes that he’d hold extra value in PPR formats this year.

This week, Ellington faces a Giants team that looked in disarray against the Lions on Monday night, and he should once again be the main option in the running game and also catch some passes out of the backfield. Ellington will be spelled frequently by Stepfan Taylor and Jonathan Dwyer, but he should get the ball plenty enough, similar to his 18 touches last week, and he has the game breaking ability to make the most of the opportunities he gets. We have him as a solid RB2 this week in all formats.
