What Does Kenyan Drake's Workload Mean for His Fantasy Football Upside?

444.

That is the number of yards Kenyan Drake had in the final five games of the 2017 season. They were the most of any running back in that same stretch of time, and he accomplished it on just 75 carries (5.9 yards per carry). Drake quickly became a fantasy football darling.

To go along with this league-leading rushing yardage down the stretch, Drake also tallied 150 receiving yards on 17 receptions, as he showcased the same dynamic skillset he showed in limited time at Alabama. But the question has and continues to be whether that -- particularly the lead back workload -- would carry over into 2018.
