Najee Harris is the most expensive player on DraftKings, and he continues to carry a monster workload in his rookie season. He’s racked up 176 rushing attempts so far this season, and no one else on the squad has more than 11. He’s also received all the running back carries inside the five-yard line, so he’s a weekly threat to score a touchdown.

However, what really separates Harris from other fantasy running backs is his involvement in the passing game. He’s seen 56 targets this season, which is the second-highest mark on the team. He’s parlayed those targets into 44 catches for 317 yards, and only D’Andre Swift has more catches at the position this season. Overall, Harris has posted a positive Plus/Minus in seven of his past eight games on DraftKings, and he’s scored at least 19.1 DraftKings points in each of those contests.
