Chris Rodriguez is either going to score 7 points or 13 points this week, depending on whether he can get into the end zone. No team ran at the goal line at a higher rate than Jacksonville last season, and with the Browns coming to town, I'd expect them to be in the red zone early and often.

Rodriguez's goal-line role and Jacksonville's red-zone frequency make him a TD-dependent deep flyer.

Chris Rodriguez is either going to score 7 points or 13 points this week, depending on whether he can get into the end zone. Smyth doesn't mind going TD hunting in this spot. No team ran at the goal line at a higher rate than Jacksonville last season, and with the Browns coming to town, Smyth expects them to be in the red zone early and often. Week 1 is the best shot of having a true RB split as Bhayshul Tuten gains experience, giving Rodriguez his best shot when paired with the matchup over the first few games.
