3. Miles Sanders
Ahead of the 2020 season, many have labeled Sanders a breakout candidate for the Eagles. With Jordan Howard joining the Miami Dolphins, Sanders figures to become the featured back in Philadelphia’s backfield, making him an intriguing choice in fantasy football.
While he shared touches with Howard as a rookie in 2019, the Penn State product still managed to contribute 1,327 yards from scrimmage and six touchdowns. He actually led all rookie rushers with 1,327 scrimmage yards a season ago.
Even though the Eagles acquired more pass-catchers for Carson Wentz to throw the ball to, Sanders should still be heavily involved in the offense. Still, regardless of what he does in 2020, it’s hard to put Sanders above the other two running backs in the NFC East.
