The NFL is one of the most volatile and unpredictable sports leagues in existence. An injury or surprise rise at one key position can heavily impact several others, both on a play-to-play basis and from week to week.
This is why it can be extremely difficult to predict which players will become studs in fantasy football. An injury at quarterback will affect a wide receiver, and vice versa. The sudden emergence of one running back can lighten the workload of another. And sometimes, players emerge from seemingly nowhere to become full-fledged fantasy studs.
Why hello, James Conner.
