Derrick Henry Continues to Face Minimal Competition

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry isn't getting any younger, but his lead-back role appears to be safe, given that he faces minimal competition in the Baltimore backfield.

Jarquez Hunter Not Close to Having Fantasy Relevance?

Los Angeles Rams running back Jarquez Hunter is buried too far down the depth chart to justify rostering him in dynasty fantasy football leagues.

Jeremiyah Love an Option for the Commanders at No. 7 Overall?

The Washington Commanders "would have no reason to hesitate" selecting Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love with the seventh overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic.

Saquon Barkley to Benefit From New-Look Offense in 2026?

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley had another strong campaign in 2025, but it was admittedly a little underwhelming by his own standards. Fantasy managers who spent a first-round pick on Barkley after his overall RB2 campaign were also likely a little disappointed to see him drop to RB14 in 2025. Still, that's nothing to […]

DJ Giddens an Intriguing Handcuff Despite Minimal Standalone Value

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens was a popular selection in rookie drafts last year because of his role behind Jonathan Taylor.

Najee Harris Remains on the Open Market

Free agent running back Najee Harris (Achilles) remains unsigned as of March 20.

Jaydon Blue Destined for More Volume in Second Season?

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue had a very underwhelming rookie season in the NFL.
