Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson rushed for just 37 yards on 14 carries Sunday, Sept. 25, in a 29-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Tip: The entire Denver running game was ineffective, but Trevor Siemian's passing made up for it. You may want to see how Denver's opponent fares against the run before putting Anderson in your lineup.

Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson (ribs) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 23, and is not on the injury report for Week 3.

Fantasy Tip: Anderson will continue to receive most of the carries in the running game and can be a decent No. 2 running back against the Cincinnati Bengals this week.

Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson (ribs) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Sept. 22.

Fantasy Tip: Anderson has been a workhorse for the Broncos through the first two games, and he should remain a RB1 in Week 3 despite a matchup with a solid Cincinnati defense.

Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson had 20 carries for 92 yards and a touchdown and four catches for 47 yards and a touchdown in a 21-20 win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 1.

Fantasy Tip: No other back had more than three carries, and Anderson looks primed to be the workhorse in Gary Kubiak's offense as long as he continues to produce. Expect RB1 production going forward.

Denver Broncos RB Ronnie Hillman is facing a battle for a roster spot, according to head coach Gary Kubiak. He is getting competition from rookie RB Devontae Booker and RB Kapri Bibbs for the right to back up starter RB C.J. Anderson. Hillman is expected to see plenty of action in the preseason game Saturday, Aug. 20, against the San Francisco 49ers. "Ronnie is in a battle, a helluva a battle with Kapri and Book right now," Kubiak said Monday, Aug. 15. "There's no way around that. I'm just being honest with you."

Fantasy Tip: Hillman might need to play more special teams and excel in the role to keep his spot on the roster. He posted 863 yards and seven touchdowns last season while adding 24 receptions. If he makes the team he is a solid handcuff to Anderson, but wait to see how the preseason plays out before risking a late-round fantasy pick on him.

Denver Broncos RBs Ronnie Hillman and Devontae Booker are listed as co-backups behind RB C.J. Anderson in Denver's initial depth chart.

Fantasy Tip: Booker has more upside, but Hillman's experience and versatility may give him more playing time out of the gate. The rookie should be drafted higher, though, but only for depth in traditional leagues. Hillman has been given plenty of chances and hasn't really run away with the opportunities, pun intended.

Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson said it's pretty obvious that head coach Gary Kubiak and the coaching staff will be more committed to the run this year after QB Peyton Manning retired. "I don't think there's a question what coach (Kubiak) wants to do," Anderson said recently. "All you have to do is look out there and see a fullback running around ... I mean, we even drafted one. (Kubiak) wants to run the ball." RBs Andy Janovich and Juwan Thompson have lined up at fullback in offseason practices. Denver used a two-back set just 25 times last year, but Kubiak is intent on going to the run more often moving forward. The Broncos beefed up their offensive line by adding OTs Russell Okung and Donald Stephenson, too.

Fantasy Tip: This is great news for Anderson, Ronnie Hillman and rookie Devontae Booker. Anderson will be the go-to back, but he's never shown he's a capable RB1 for fantasy purposes over a full season, so draft him as more of a low-end RB2. Booker has the skills to be a three-down back and therefor has more appeal and upside than Hillman as a potential flex play.

Denver Broncos RB Ronnie Hillman is still ahead of RB Devontae Booker to back up RB C.J. Anderson, according to Andrew Mason of denverbroncos.com. RB Kapri Bibbs will also compete with Hillman and Booker for backup duties.

Fantasy Tip: Denver will try to run the ball frequently this year, but the fantasy value of Booker and Hillman is minimal at this point. Booker probably has more upside, too, despite Hillman currently being ahead of him. Don't view either as more than an RB4, though.

Denver Broncos RB C.J. Anderson is in the best condition that head coach Gary Kubiak has seen him in, and Anderson has responded to competition. "He's ready to be an every down back," Kubiak said.

Fantasy Tip: He still has to show he can hold up for a full season. Anderson will have Devontae Booker and Ronnie Hillman on his heels, and he could sit on third downs and inside the 5-yard line. For now, Anderson is a high-end RB3 with upside.
