Video: Fantasy Football Week 8 Start/Sit: Rankings & Toughest Lineup Decisions
Tony Pollard scares me a little bit because where is he if he gets traded where is he going to get traded that gives him this sort of volume? I don't see a scenario where Tony Pollard gets into a better situation than Tennessee... he's getting 19 or more carries in back-to-back weeks.

Trade risk: unlikely to land better situation than Tennessee

Braelon Allen warns that Pollard scares him in a trade context because his trade destination is uncertain and could significantly impact his volume. Currently getting 19+ carries in back-to-back weeks with Tennessee, but there's no realistic scenario where he gets into a better situation than Tennessee aside from potentially Houston. Most teams would only use him in a committee role for 12 touches per game, which is worse than his current volume. Trading for Pollard hoping he gets traded to a better situation is unrealistic odds (one in a hundred at best).
