7 Deep Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 7

C.J. Prosise, RB, Seattle Seahawks

Yahoo! Ownership: 12%

The Week 6 bye appears to have done C.J. Prosise some good. The Seattle Seahawks running back is on track to play on Sunday after missing the previous two games with an ankle injury. Prosise returns to a 'Hawks running game that is in dire need of a boost.

In Week 4, Seattle lost its most productive back, when Chris Carson broke his leg. In his place, Eddie Lacy and Thomas Rawls have rushed 17 times for just 39 yards -- or 2.3 yards per carry. Their ineffectiveness could lead to more early-down touches for Prosise, in addition to his role as the team's go-to passing-down back. And Seattle's Week 7 opponent, the New York Giants, have had their issues with opposing running backs this year, as well.

The Giants rank in the middle of the pack for fantasy points allowed to running backs, but they rank 25th in the NFL in rushing yards against, with teams racking up an average of 123.5 ground yards per game against them. The last two weeks have been rough against passing backs, as the G-Men have given up a total of 14 catches for 166 yards to running backs.
