This is the most obvious one, as the Falcons have become extremely thin at the running back position with injuries to Ito Smith and Devonta Freeman. Look for Kenjon Barner to get some touches as well, but it should be Brian Hill getting the bulk of carries on Sunday. This has made him a must-add in fantasy with Freeman’s future uncertain and Smith on the injured reserve.
