Oakland running back Justin Fargas is listed as doubtful for the team’s Week 17 game against the Baltimore Ravens. Fargas did not practice all week after sitting out Week 16 at Cleveland with a knee injury. He is not expected play this week. In his absence, Michael Bush and Darren McFadden will once again share the workload against a tough Baltimore run defense ranked sixth best in the NFL.

Bruno Boys Take: There is little incentive for Oakland to play Fargas this week unless he was 100 percent healthy. We do not recommend Fargas as a fantasy option even if he is active on Sunday. Oakland ran the ball just 19 times against the Browns last week and the Ravens matchup is a difficult one. Bush and McFadden also have limited fantasy appeal this week and should be considered flex plays at best. For last minute fantasy football advice and updates on the status of Fargas and other players, be sure to check out the Bruno Boys Live Sunday Morning Q&A at 11:30 a.m. ET: http://brunoboys.net/entry/live-01-03-1130-am-et-sunday-morning-q-a/
