Arian Foster leads our rankings as usual since he won’t have to deal with the rain or the Chicago Bears defense this week. Check out our top 30 running backs for Week 11 below. Photo by Mike DiNovo-US PRESSWIRE
Injuries and byes have opened the door of opportunity for some fantasy running backs while others have forced their way to the top spots. The top two are consistent as always with Arian Foster and Ray Rice comfortably in their own tier. However, Doug Martin, C.J. Spiller, and Trent Richardson are all new-comers to the top of the rankings and have been making owners who had the foresight to draft them look good all season.
Here’s our top 30 running backs for week 11:

Our ranking team consists of the Fantasy CPR staff: This week so far its just Jeffrey Littrell (JL) and myself (ZT). I’ll add other staff members as their rankings become available. NR stands for not rated and counts for 35 in the composite ranking average.

I'm an avid Boston sports fan and fantasy sports enthusiast. When I'm not blogging, I serve as Audio and Video producer as well as High School History teacher at Harvest Ministries on the island of Guam. The 14-hour time difference can make things challenging, but I'll play any fantasy sports just about anytime I can.
