Colts impressed with rookie RB Josh Ferguson

Might Josh Ferguson emerge as this year's version of Thomas Rawls, an undrafted rookie who goes on to outshine one of the most respected running backs of the past decade?

Owner Jim Irsay had been openly pining for an elusive Darren Sproles-style satellite back. That's the role offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski dangled in front of Ferguson in a post-draft recruiting pitch.

With the underwhelming quartet of Robert Turbin, Jordan Todman, Trey Williams and Tyler Varga behind 33-year-old starter Frank Gore, Ferguson used offseason practices to climb the depth chart and make a lasting impression on the coaching staff.

"It's just in shorts, but he looks really good," coach Chuck Pagano said last week as the Colts wrapped up minicamp. "He's smart. He picks things up in a hurry. He's very, very athletic. He's a great receiver out of the back field. We can split him wide, we can displace him formationally. He's a mismatch out in space. He's got juice. He can go. He's got great vision."

Fantasy Impact:

We like Frank Gore as a value pick this year, but Ferguson could surprise in PPR formats even if Gore stays healthy.

IND RB Tyler Varga - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
The Colts really liked Varga, an undrafted rookie out of Yale, following training camp and the preseason of 2015. His ability to play special teams gave him a spot on the roster, and Frank Gore even took a liking to him, as the two formed a type of mentor relationship. Varga suffered a concussion though, with effects so bad that he had to go on injured reserve. If he can prove to be healthy again this preseason, it’s definitely possible he could emerge behind Gore on the depth chart. There’s a reason the Colts brought him back.

Fantasy Downside
With no concussion history, it’s hard to tell how Varga’s body would react if he were to suffer another one. Plus, 2016 undrafted free agent Josh Ferguson has impressed in offseason workouts.

Bottom Line
Varga isn’t a player that will be drafted, in all likelihood, in 2016; however, if Gore were to suffer an injury, the RB that emerges behind him in Indianapolis would have some value. Other than that, Varga doesn’t have fantasy value.
