Unless you’d like to tank your league in 2018, you’d be wise to avoid the running back busts mentioned in these fantasy football rankings.

Right now, most of the fantasy football rankings you’ll see out there focus on the top sleepers or value players to have on your radar. However, it also seems worth pointing out right now that there are several running backs nearly destined to be busts in 2018.

As it happens, that’s why we’re here today. A discussion about running back busts must be had as the upcoming fantasy football campaign inches closer and closer.

The main goal today is to educate you on a few prominent running backs who should be avoided during your upcoming fantasy football drafts. These rankings highlight (or lowlight?) five names who could soon be associated with the word “bust” due to the overall underwhelming fantasy performances they seem destined to put together in 2018.

Hopefully, you haven’t drafted any of these guys yet. If you have, then there’s not much I can do to console you — that’s why it’s best to wait until the end of August to draft your squad.
