Scouting report

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Los Angeles Rams

Chase Edmonds has taken a back seat to Kenyan Drake all season, but he’s still getting change-of-pace touches, especially in the passing game. He has 40 receptions on the year, and had 10 touches last week in a tough matchup against the Patriots. This week, Edmonds is a low-end RB3 option in deeper leagues against a tough Rams defense that ranks sixth in aFPA to opposing running backs. PPR formats give him a little extra value since he’s caught at least three balls in all but two games this year, but he’s a risky option in most leagues.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at New England Patriots

Chase Edmonds found the end zone last week on a reception, but he only had six touches with Kenyan Drake getting the bulk of the work in the run game. Edmonds has been productive with his limited touches, with 49 yards and a touchdown last week, and 77 yards on 11 touches the previous game. So he isn’t without value.

This week, Edmonds faces a Patriots defense that ranks 18th in aFPA to opposing running backs. That’s a pretty good matchup and a game where Edmonds should get some opportunities in the passing game. He’s risky with Drake active, but has upside, particularly in PPR formats. We have him ranked as an RB3 or a fringe-flex option in most leagues.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Seattle Seahawks

With Kenyan Drake back in action last week against the Bills, Chase Edmonds was reduced to a complementary role, with eight carries and three receptions for 77 yards. Not bad totals, but not the numbers fantasy owners hoped for thinking the Cardinals might ease Drake back into action. With a tough matchup against the Seahawks this week and Drake likely to get double-digit touches again, Edmonds is a risky option in most leagues. He has some value as an RB3 in PPR formats – he’s averaging 3.6 receptions per game – but he’s mostly a high-end handcuff.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Buffalo Bills

Chase Edmonds wasn’t amazing against the Dolphins last week, with 88 total yards, but he got 25 carries and three receptions, putting to rest any doubt about whether or not he’ll be a workhorse back with Kenyan Drake injured. Edmonds gets enough touches to be viable in deep leagues – particularly PPR formats – even when Drake is healthy, but if Drake misses a second straight game, Edmonds has huge upside with 20-plus touches.

This week, Edmonds faces a Bills defense that ranks 23rd in aFPA to opposing running backs. Assuming Drake is out, Edmonds should be in for a full workload and excellent fantasy numbers. If Drake is a surprise active, consider Edmonds a low-end RB2, but with Drake expected to miss another game, Edmonds should be considered a top-level RB1 in all formats. Start him.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Miami Dolphins

Chase Edmonds got supplemental work and filled in as the starter after Kenyan Drake went down against the Seahawks before the bye last week. He ended up with five carries for 58 yards rushing, and added 87 additional yards on seven receptions. He caught all seven balls thrown his way and now has a chance to be the focal point of the Cardinals’ rushing attack with Drake shelved.

This week, Edmonds faces a Dolphins defense that ranks 22nd in aFPA to opposing running backs. He’s shown he can produce when he gets opportunities, so he should be considered a potential RB1 in a nice matchup. Start him in all formats.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Chase Edmonds had five carries for 23 yards last week against the Cowboys, and he caught one of the two passes thrown his way for six receiving yards. It was his lowest yardage total since Week 2, and only the second time this season he’s seen fewer than four targets in the passing game. Edmonds has upside as a change-of-pace back, particularly since he’s found the end zone three times this year, but as long as he remains behind Kenyan Drake on the depth chart, it’s hard to trust him in most leagues. In PPR formats, he might have some upside this week as a low-end RB3, but in most leagues, there should be better options.

ARI RB Chase Edmonds - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Dallas Cowboys

Chase Edmonds had 36 yards and a touchdown on three carries last week, but he added 56 yards on five receptions as well. He’s been targeted 12 times over his past two games and his snaps spiked to 45% last week. It’s still early to assume he’ll put up fantasy production while sitting second on the depth chart, but fantasy owners should be adding him in all league formats, just in case he can take that job. He’s been more impressive than Kenyan Drake in his limited opportunities. Against the Cowboys this week, he has some deep-league potential as an RB3, but it’s still risky to bank on him with a total of 18 touches over his past two outings.
