Fantasy Football: Hot Take Predictions for Every AFC South Team

#2 Indianapolis Colts

Jordan Wilkins will record the most rushing yards on the team

Jordan Wilkins is currently slated to be the RB3 on the Colts depth chart. He is behind Marlon Mack and fellow rookie Nyheim Hines.

Mack will get the first crack at winning the starting job, but I can’t see him being a workhorse in this offence.

Mack flashed at times last season but failed to deliver on a consistent basis. He averaged a horrible 3.8 YPC, which led the Colts to draft both Hines and Wilkins in this year’s draft. The fact that the Colts drafted them both shows that they don’t have too much faith in Mack being the workhorse back.

With Frank Gore moving on to Miami, there is a real chance for one of these young backs to make the job their own.

This year Andrew Luck will hopefully back under centre, so that will help whoever is in the backfield as there will be less stacked boxes. I can see Wilkins being the starter after a few games, reducing Mack to more of a complimentary change of pace role.
