Justice Hill

As we approach the 2025 fantasy football season, Justice Hill of the Baltimore Ravens is a player who, while not a top-tier pick, has some specific value in certain contexts. Hill has established himself as the passing-down back for the Ravens, a role that saw him provide surprising flex value in the 2024 season. Despite Derrick Henry's dominance, Hill managed to score double-digit PPR Fantasy points in five of his first 14 games, showcasing his efficiency in the passing game with an average of 9.1 yards per catch and a catch rate of 92% of his targets.

However, it's crucial to understand that Hill's fantasy potential is capped by his defined role in the offense. He is not expected to see significant carries or touches unless there is an injury to Derrick Henry. In such a scenario, Hill would likely see an increase in his role, particularly in a more pass-heavy offense, but even then, he faces competition from Keaton Mitchell, who is considered the better athlete and could also see increased playing time.

For fantasy draft purposes, Justice Hill is more of a "dart throw" in the later rounds, particularly useful as a bye week replacement depending on the game script. His value is largely tied to his receiving abilities and the occasional big game driven by receiving touchdowns. However, predicting these boom games is challenging, making him a low-upside pick in most leagues.

In terms of projections, Hill ranks relatively low among running backs, with Razzball projecting him as the STD RB56, 1/2 PPR RB50, and PPR RB44 for the 2025 season. This reflects his limited role and the uncertainty surrounding his playing time. While he can be a useful addition to a fantasy roster for specific situations, he should not be a priority pick in most drafts.
