The Indianapolis Colts are cruising on offense. Quarterback Andrew Luck is an MVP candidate, but running back Ahmad Bradshaw has been an unheralded star.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 9: Ahmad Bradshaw
Ahmad Bradshaw has been one of the best values in all of fantasy football. Will that continue?

Bradshaw has eight scores on the season and he's rushing the ball at a 4.9 yards-per-carry clip. His backup, Trent Richardson, is banged up with an injury, but should play Monday night vs. the New York Giants. However, Richardson has been remarkably ineffective and shouldn't affect Bradshaw's output. Plus, Bradshaw will still be heavily involved in the passing game.
He gets a fantastic matchup this week against the Giants, who have been the fourth-best matchup for fantasy running backs. They have been torched by the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys in the past two weeks and have allowed a rushing touchdown in all but one game.
Fantasy impact: On top of all of this, Bradshaw gets the revenge factor against his former team. Fantasy owners should have him locked in as a must-start back.
