Each week in the Dynasty Rookie Blitz we’ll take a look at some lesser-known first-year players who need to be on your fantasy radar, and from time to time we’ll analyze the marquee rookies to see how they’re progressing. Check back each week for your dynasty rookie fix.
Running Back
Travaris Cadet, New Orleans – With Darren Sproles missing time due to a broken hand, the Saints have spread the love at running back. Most of the touches have been distributed among Mark Ingram, Pierre Thomas, and Chris Ivory, but Cadet, the rookie out of Appalachian State, has also been called upon. He’s only carried the ball once for 5 yards on 12 snaps, but he had an electrifying 45-yard run called back by a holding penalty. He’s shown well in the return game in Sproles’ absence, plus the coaches saw him flash potential in the preseason, so don’t be surprised if you hear Cadet’s name more often going forward.
