2022 NFL Draft: Betting on Fantasy Football Running Backs
Published: Apr 23, 2022
The 2022 NFL Draft is right around the corner and what better way to bet on NFL draft picks than via fantasy football? That’s right - in your dynasty and best-ball leagues you can essentially wager on the draft by looking at popular picks and “team needs” then simply drafting the players that are supposed to get replaced. For instance, last year the Falcons were expected to draft a running back and didn’t so Cordarelle Patterson was able to break out in a big way. Who are some running backs that could survive the draft this year and pay off big? Let’s take a look!
