Welcome into the second Fantasy Football Player Profile, featuring Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack! Let’s look at how he could finish in 2019!

Fantasy Football season is closer than you think, so to get you prepared we’re going to be doing individual player profiles through the next few weeks! We’ll be recapping the 2018 season, looking at potential best and worst-case scenarios, and see what a dynasty outlook could be.

This is the fun part because I want you to get involved. I’m just picking players as things stand, but don’t be afraid to reach out on Twitter to me @bucn4life or tag me on the @fantasycpr account to let me know who you want to see next!

Marlon Mack 2018 Recap 

On an offense that featured quarterback Andrew Luck, wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, tight end Eric Ebron and even rookie offensive lineman Quenton Nelson, Mack was under the radar for most of the season. He finished as the RB21 in half-point PPR, despite playing in just 12 games, which is impressive in and of itself.

Mack eclipsed 1,000 total yards from scrimmage and that was with only catching 17 passes. He hit the end zone a total of 10 times, close to once every game. Even though he played in just 12 games, he finished 15th in total carries and that’s going to lead right into the 2019 outlook.

Dynasty Outlook 

I would definitely be asking what the price is on Mack in your league. If you can get him at a reasonable cost as an RB2, odds are I’m pulling that trigger. Luck answered a ton of questions last year about his health and Mack is under 24 years old. He seems like a good bet as part of the offense that put up the eighth-most points per game and added new toys for Luck. The volume seems about as safe as it gets for Mack and I’d love to have him on my teams.
