A sharp_rank of 236 tells you what the room thinks of this backfield, and it isn't 'bigger workload.' Johnson has been good for single digits in back-to-back weeks, and 'could have a bigger workload' is what you write when there's nothing else to say. The Dolphins matchup and KC's double-digit favorite status are nice theoretical inputs, but theory doesn't get you into a 12-team FFPC lineup. Leave him on your bench, or better, someone else's.
