Ke’Shawn Vaughn Is Worth the Risk in Fantasy Football

Former Vanderbilt Commodores running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn was not a highly regarded draft prospect by most analysts. NFL.com's Lance Zierlein, for example, ranked him No. 14 overall among running backs in the 2020 NFL draft.

When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers selected Vaughn in the third round of April's draft, however, the fantasy football community was forced to take notice. Tampa's revolving door of Ronald Jones and Peyton Barber failed in 2019, making the Buccaneers one of the few teams with an immediate path to significant playing time for this year's incoming rookie class.
