Week 1 at Buffalo
LeVeon Bell's first season with the Jets was good, but not what we are used to seeing from him when he was with Pittsburgh. He still had 311 touches for 1,250 yards from scrimmage, but the rushing numbers were disappointing with 789 yards and 3.2 yards per carry and he only had four touchdowns. We will see if the Jets offense improves but no matter what happens, we expect Bell to still get touches as he is their best offensive player.
Bell will face the Bills in the opener. Buffalo was 17th in aFPA to running backs in 2019. Bell was very average in the two meeting against them last season as he didn't eclipse the 100 total yard mark in either game.
Bell will get the touches because the Jets just don't have great weapons. So volume makes him valuable. Against the Bills for Week 1, he ranks a high-end RB3 or Flex in standard leagues while he is an RB2 in PPR leagues.
