PositiveSleeperOct 14, 2026Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz

Ian Hartitz ranks Ray Davis as RB4 in pre-season RB2 projections (behind Tank Begsby at RB3), yet Davis has been undervalued in the market. Hartitz notes Davis is one injury to James Cook or a couple more fumbles away from becoming a league-winner waiver wire pickup. The Bills offense is significantly better than the Eagles, making Davis's handcuff value premium despite current ADP. Davis is set up for success against the Raiders this week; the Bills have an elite run-blocking matchup with the best rushing yards before contact per carry in the league, creating ideal conditions for Davis to produce.
