Ethan Padway rounds out our Conference Preview series with his breakdown of the PAC-12. While Khalil Tate and Bryce Love rightfully get plenty of publicity, Washington's Myles Gaskin has proven time and again to be an elite fantasy option as well.
2018 Fantasy Outlook
Tilford saw limited opportunities last season, rushing 13 times for 121 yards and two scores. He's slated to start the year as the No. 2 back behind J.J. Taylor, who's likely to get most of the touches along with quarterback Khalil Tate, although given Arizona's run-heavy offensive style, there should be plenty of carries for Tilford. With the departure of Nick Wilson and Zach Green at running back, Tilford could be in line for a breakthrough season in 2018, especially when taking into account a promising first season, and his background as an elite recruit. What's more, Tilford's size advantage over Taylor could net him more goal-line carries than his backfield counterpart.
