Kenneth Farrow, RB, San Diego Chargers

Kenneth Farrow isn't exactly a deep sleeper, but he remains on the waiver wire in 49% of Yahoo leagues despite being a strong fantasy option this week.

Melvin Gordon has yet to return to practice, and looks unlikely to suit up this week against the Cleveland Browns. With Gordon hurt, Farrow has played 80% of the San Diego Chargers' offensive snaps over the last two weeks while racking up 31 carries and 9 targets.

He hasn't been especially efficient with his touches so far, but volume is typically the first thing you should look for in a fantasy running back, which Farrow has had plenty of, and this week's matchup should go a long way to alleviate any concerns with efficiency.

The Browns rank 32nd in both our Adjusted Defensive Rushing and Passing NEP metrics, and have allowed the league's second-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs this year.
