De'Von Achane is the Last Playmaker Standing in Miami

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane has seen the fantasy landscape around him change dramatically since finishing as the RB5 in 2025. The hiring of defensive-minded head coach Jeff Hafley and offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, who was fired from the same position with Houston following the 2024 season, raised questions about Achane's usage.

Emanuel Wilson to Carry Early-Season Upside in Weak Backfield?

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson landed in a more favorable spot this offseason, and now, he finds himself trending up in fantasy football. Wilson spent three years as a depth option in Green Bay before signing with the Seahawks last week. The former undrafted free agent posted at least 550 scrimmage yards in each […]

Chris Rodriguez Jr. Emerging as a High-End Dynasty Stash

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s new landing spot should benefit him long-term, and it also bodes well for his fantasy football managers.

It was a very intriguing offseason move, as Jacksonville had recently lost Travis Etienne Jr. […]

7 Fantasy Football Rookie Running Back Sleepers: Dynasty Draft Targets

This year’s rookie class of running backs will not enter the NFL landscape with the exceptional depth that existed in the 2025 class.

Nathan Carter the New Handcuff at RB in Atlanta?

Atlanta Falcons running back Nathan Carter went undrafted last year out of Michigan State and only saw nine carries for 60 yards in seven games played in 2025 in his first year in the NFL. Seven of his nine carries on the year came in the team's Week 3 loss to the Carolina Panthers. The […]

Dylan Sampson Set to be Pass-Catching Backup RB in Cleveland

Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson was much more effective as a pass-catcher than as a traditional RB in his first year in the NFL in 2025. Sampson played in 15 games (two starts) and had 175 carries and no touchdowns on 65 rushing attempts (2.7 yards per carry). As a pass-catcher, he caught 33 […]

George Holani Signs Tender Offer on Monday

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani signed his exclusive-rights free-agent tender on Monday, according to John Boyle of the team's official website. Holani qualifies as an exclusive-rights free agent because his contract is expiring and he has fewer than three accrued seasons in the NFL. He signed as an undrafted free agent out of Boise […]

Who are going to be the biggest stars in the sport in 2026? Way-too-early Heisman favorites include Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr, Texas quarterback Arch Manning, Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad […]

Christian McCaffrey Tough to Justify Trading in Dynasty Leagues

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey is a typical sell-high candidate in dynasty fantasy football leagues this offseason. Dynasty strategy strongly encourages managers to sell high on injury-prone skill players in their thirties coming off a top finish. However, moving McCaffrey at this point is far easier said than done, mostly because he's not […]

Chris Brooks the Preferred Handcuff in Green Bay?

Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks has ascended into the No. 2 role on the depth chart ahead of the 2026 NFL season. The offseason is still young, and we certainly can't rule out the Packers adding another impact running back via the draft or free agency. However, as it stands, the 26-year-old Brooks […]

Kendre Miller Continues to Fall Out of Favor in New Orleans

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller was once viewed as a high-upside investment in fantasy football, but his value now continues to decline ahead of the 2026 season.

Brashard Smith's Ascension Put on Pause?

Kansas City Chiefs running back Brashard Smith may not take as big a leap as initially anticipated in 2026. The Chiefs recently signed running back Kenneth Walker III to a three-year, $43 million deal, locking him in as their primary ball-carrier through 2028. That move seems to put a damper on Smith's upside after it […]

Kyle Monangai Will Continue to Test Fantasy Managers' Patience

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai took on a significant workload during his rookie campaign in 2025, but he remains the No. 2 option behind D'Andre Swift ahead of the 2026 season.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears had a career-low 283 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 72 carries in 13 games (one start) in 2025 in his third year in the league.
