ADP Duel: Redskins Derrius Guice vs. Seahawks Rashaad Penny

The new fad in Fantasy Football has become the need to go after rookies at the running back position. With players like Todd Gurley, Ezekiel Elliott and others coming into the league and blazing a trail, many owners salivate at the thought of getting the new shiny toy on draft day. Over the last couple of seasons it has become the norm to reach for these rookies to ensure having them rostered as opposed to going after proven veterans that provide a safe floor of production. It’s the ultimate risk/reward game. You can use the narrative of “he has yet to play a down in the NFL” but that has been proven false by many running backs lately.
