The Lions are vulnerable to the RB screen, which is Vereen's bread and butter. However, so are the Colts (but the Colts are even MORE vulnerable to the big RB). I think that Vereen's questionable workload could scare you away from him this week. Will he get 5 touches or 20? Low floor, high ceiling.

I'm heavily invested in Ellington, but I'm nervous about him this week. 20+ touches, but any quality touches? He's the most talented runner and is more of a dual threat.

I think McKinnon will get the biggest workload of this bunch, especially in the redzone. He's most likely to hit a home run, out of this group of RB.

Summary:
1) Ellington -- the dual-threat nature puts his floor above the others, while keeping his ceiling pretty high
2) McKinnon -- I love him this week.
3) Vereen -- while I love Vereen, he will only pay you back in the passing game. The Patriots' game plan is always a fantasy football killer. I see the Pats D & ST units winning the game this week, but that's just a guess.

I like Vereen. I've never bought in on Ellington and Minnesota might have to abandon the run, while McKinnon has had back issues as well.
