Benefiting from a strong offensive line and a new coordinator known for maximizing rushing efficiency and pass-catching roles, he’s poised to exceed 1,200 yards and provide solid touchdown upside.

Drafted third overall, this rookie running back is poised for an immediate lead role with a workload that could push him into RB1 territory, bolstered by strong pass-catching skills and projections near 1,000 rushing yards plus 50 receptions. However, a high ankle sprain sustained in preseason clouds his Week 1 availability and adds some early-season risk. If healthy out of the gate, he’s a confident start with top-15 upside, but a cautious approach may be warranted if he’s eased in due to the injury.

Positioned as a potential WR1, this player combines size and explosiveness with a strong rapport with his young quarterback, making him a focal point in a pass-heavy offense. His fully guaranteed contract extension underscores his central role, but lingering concerns about a recent concussion and past injuries warrant caution.

Now with a clear lead role in a Patriots offense centered around a young quarterback, this receiver offers a high floor thanks to elite ball skills and consistent target volume.

If your roster can handle some injury risk, he’s a strong WR1/WR2 hybrid capable of delivering elite weekly ceilings.

Slated as a high-upside WR2, this receiver’s move to Dallas positions him opposite a top target, promising a solid share of looks in a prolific passing attack. His size and contested-catch ability give him spike-week potential, especially in best ball formats, but his week-to-week output may fluctuate, making him more of a boom-or-bust option than a steady WR1. The franchise tag situation removes contract distractions, allowing him to focus fully on maximizing his role in an aggressive offense.

This backfield asset offers a compelling mix of rushing and receiving work, providing a reliable floor in PPR formats and the potential to ascend into the top tier if the offense clicks. A recent minor groin injury has limited preseason reps but isn't expected to impact his Week 1 availability, making him a high-upside RB2 with top-12 ceiling potential. His value hinges on touchdown opportunities and offensive efficiency, so early-season workload will be key to monitor.

Entering 2026, this quarterback remains the safest elite option due to his rare combination of rushing upside and passing production, offering a floor few can match. Despite offseason foot surgery, he’s been cleared to play and projects to maintain his status as the position’s clear No. 1 overall choice, providing a weekly advantage that justifies his early-round cost. The main tradeoff is sacrificing a strong non-QB starter, but his consistent rushing touchdowns and durability make him a top-tier pick in one-quarterback leagues.

Landing in a more dynamic offense with clear lead-back duties, this player offers a high-volume role that supports a steady floor and upside in PPR formats.

Projected as a reliable RB2, he commands a clear role in a Bears offense expected to generate scoring opportunities, though his touches may be shared with a competing backfield mate.

While lingering groin issues raise some durability questions, current reports suggest he’ll be available enough to deliver consistent mid-round value with upside if the offense gels.

Secured by a massive contract extension, he stands as the Jets' undisputed top receiving option, projected for nearly 100 catches and over 1,000 yards, making him a reliable WR2 with clear upside.

After overcoming previous knee issues, he enters the season healthy and poised to be a value pick in the second or third round with genuine WR1 potential if the offense clicks.

Coming off offseason shoulder surgery and a 2025 season marred by injuries, this back offers dynamic burst and efficiency that can quickly elevate a fantasy lineup if healthy.

Coming off a strong rookie campaign as his team's clear WR1, this wide receiver offers a rare combination of high target volume and a proven ability to win contested catches, especially in the red zone.

Coming off a knee injury that limited him in 2025, this tight end is fully healthy and primed for a bounce-back season with no signs of lingering issues. His elite target volume and top-tier route involvement, combined with minimal competition in the passing game, position him as a clear TE1 candidate capable of surpassing 90 catches and 1,000 yards.

Still a reliable mid-range WR2, this veteran receiver offers strong touchdown upside thanks to his proven red-zone prowess, despite a slight decline in target volume. Health remains a concern after a late-season hamstring issue, which could lead to some managed snaps or missed games. Best viewed as a steady contributor with occasional WR1-level weeks, he’s a solid middle-round pick who thrives when the offense efficiently attacks near the goal line.

Coming off a serious lower-leg injury, this back enters 2026 with strong health reports and a clear path to a lead role in Cleveland's offense. His volume-driven profile and the Browns’ intent to lean on him suggest solid RB2 production, with upside to reach top-15 value if the workload materializes.

Drafting him in the third or fourth round provides a balanced mix of safety and upside, especially in leagues that reward big-play receiving.

Projected as a mid-round WR2/WR3, this young receiver offers a tantalizing path to volume in a Tampa Bay offense that still has upside, with projections around 73 catches, 1,100 yards, and close to 8 touchdowns. A minor toe injury has caused some early concern, but it appears more like a brief setback than a major issue, making him a high-upside target if healthy at kickoff. His combination of talent, expected role, and touchdown potential makes him a strong breakout candidate with league-winning upside relative to his draft cost.

Coming off a quad injury that limited him in 2025, this receiver looks poised for a bounce-back thanks to regained explosiveness and a clear role as the top target in Washington's offense. With Jayden Daniels likely to keep the passing game on track, he offers a target share and route-running prowess that support a steady WR2 floor and occasional WR1 upside. While some team uncertainty lingers beyond this season, his combination of volume and big-play ability makes him a strong value around the mid-40s overall ranking.

Projected as a volatile WR3 with clear WR2 upside, this receiver’s value hinges on maintaining a strong target share and health, especially after a minor shoulder issue that appears non-threatening. His explosive big-play ability offers a high weekly ceiling, making him a compelling high-upside starter, particularly in lineups with a stable WR foundation.

Projected to lead Jacksonville’s backfield after the team parted ways with their previous starter, this back offers a promising workload with 197-237 carries expected, plus involvement in the passing game that pushes him into solid RB2 territory. While competition from secondary backs could limit his touches in certain scenarios, his clear path to volume sets him apart as a high-upside mid-round selection. The combination of opportunity and a team commitment to him as the lead back makes him an intriguing breakout candidate with a balanced risk-reward profile.

Projected as a mid-round RB2 or strong RB3, he offers enticing upside tied to carving out a larger role in New England’s committee-heavy backfield. While his rookie year showed flashes, the week-to-week production was uneven, leaving him more as a boom-or-bust flex option unless he secures more early-down and passing-down work.

This wide receiver offers a solid WR2 floor with upside to break into WR1 territory if his chemistry with Denver’s quarterback develops as hoped. Despite a minor leg strain in preseason, the issue appears short-lived and unlikely to impact his availability. His role as a top target in a run-heavy offense creates some volume uncertainty, but his efficiency and big-play ability make him a valuable weekly starter with spike-week potential.

A recent trade to Houston positions him as the clear lead back, offering a much clearer path to volume than his previous role behind Jahmyr Gibbs. His touchdown upside remains significant, with projections around 165 PPR points fueled by a workload of roughly 230 carries and 7-8 scores, making him a strong touchdown-dependent RB2 with weekly RB1 potential. Durability concerns have eased after playing a full 2025 season post-MCL sprain, leaving workload as the primary variable for his middle-round appeal.

Expect steady volume and PPR upside, but not a league-winning breakout.

Coming off a solid recovery from ACL surgery and secured by a contract extension, this player offers dynamic big-play ability and strong rapport with his quarterback, making him a high-upside WR3 with frequent WR2 weeks in standard leagues. His unique combination of splash-play potential and red-zone involvement sets him apart, but a history of lower-body injuries keeps his availability—and thus fantasy consistency—in question. Best targeted in the middle rounds, he’s a boom-or-bust weapon who can deliver league-winning performances when healthy but requires a stable WR1 or WR2 to offset his volatility.

A move to Buffalo pairs him with Josh Allen, elevating his fantasy ceiling in a much more dynamic passing attack than Chicago offered. Health is the main question after a minor ankle scare, but early reports are positive, and his proven durability supports a reliable weekly role. Projected as a solid WR2 with upside, he combines volume, yards after catch, and big-play ability, making him a key target in a crowded Bills receiving corps.

Now in a new offense after a long Tampa Bay tenure, the transition and recent injuries cloud his fantasy outlook despite his size and red-zone prowess. His high-upside potential remains intact, but increased competition for targets and durability concerns slot him more as a boom-or-bust WR2/3 option. Treat him as a veteran with WR1 upside in select weeks rather than a reliable weekly anchor.

Poised for a significant role increase in a Chicago offense eager to feature him more prominently, this receiver carries strong breakout potential tied directly to volume rather than just hype. A recent groin injury introduces early-season risk, but if healthy by Week 1, he offers high-end WR3 to solid WR2 production upside thanks to expected target share. Draft him as a high-upside asset who might start slow but could emerge as a league-winner once fully integrated.

Entering 2026, this veteran receiver offers dependable weekly production anchored by a consistent red-zone role in a Bo Nix-led offense, though his target share and explosiveness have tapered with age. Managed carefully in camp to preserve freshness rather than due to injury, he showed solid preseason form as his team's clear top receiving option. Best viewed as a stable WR3 with touchdown upside, he provides a reliable floor but lacks the ceiling to be a true WR2 in standard formats.

Now in Pittsburgh after a trade and extension, he remains the Steelers’ top wideout but faces meaningful target competition from Michael Pittman Jr., capping his ceiling compared to his peak Seattle years. Health concerns linger due to a recent injury that kept him out of preseason action, though he’s expected to be available for Week 1. Projected as a solid mid-round WR2/WR3 option, he offers dependable production with touchdown upside but lacks the breakout potential to justify a premium draft price.

As the undisputed lead back for Tennessee, he offers dependable RB2 value with consistent volume and goal-line opportunities that should drive steady weekly production. While his receiving role is limited, his early-season usage and contract status suggest the Titans remain committed to featuring him heavily. Health and workload management at age 29 are the main concerns, but current reports indicate he’s poised for a full, active role to start 2026.

Coming off an injury-limited 2025, this dual-threat quarterback remains a top-tier fantasy option thanks to his unique rushing upside and stable situation with Baltimore. While offensive line concerns and durability questions temper expectations slightly, his ability to swing matchups with ground production keeps his floor high and ceiling league-winning. Target him confidently in the QB1 range, especially if he falls into the second tier, as he offers elite upside without demanding the earliest quarterback pick.

This dual-threat quarterback offers top-five upside thanks to his dynamic rushing ability, which sets a high weekly floor and explosive ceiling when healthy. His 2025 season was a cautionary tale due to multiple injuries, but encouraging camp reports suggest he’ll be ready for Week 1 and can bounce back to lead a promising offense. Best viewed as a high-end QB1, he carries injury risk but also the potential to significantly outperform his current mid-round ADP.

Projected as a steady volume-based workhorse, this back is firmly entrenched as his team's primary early-down and scoring option, making him a reliable RB2/FLEX target in the middle rounds. His value hinges on health, with recent toe and eye injuries plus early camp absences raising some red flags that could open the door for committee action. Expect consistent, touchdown- and catch-supported production rather than explosive big-play upside in 2026.

Landing with the Steelers shifts this backfield option into a committee role behind Jaylen Warren, capping his ceiling but leaving room for flex-worthy production if he carves out early-down or goal-line duties. His efficient 2025 stretch with 18.6 touches per game shows he can deliver solid volume when trusted, making him a viable mid-round pick who thrives on opportunity swings rather than pure talent. At 28, he’s a one-year window player whose value hinges heavily on how Pittsburgh divvies carries, positioning him as a strong RB3/flex with upside if the workload breaks his way.

This dual-threat quarterback remains a reliable fantasy asset primarily due to his elite rushing volume and consistent goal-line opportunities, which provide a high weekly floor even amid some passing-game uncertainty. Changes in offensive coordination and scheme have tempered expectations for his arm, but his ability to produce both on the ground and through the air keeps him comfortably within starter range and an attractive mid-round target. Managers can confidently hold or draft him as a steady fantasy anchor, especially in one-QB formats where rushing upside sets him apart.

Coming off a significant ankle procedure that could temper early-season usage, he enters 2026 as the Colts' clear top wide receiver following Michael Pittman Jr.'s departure. His game will lean heavily on explosive, downfield plays rather than volume targets, offering a high ceiling but more boom-or-bust weekly output. Best viewed as a WR3/flex with upside, he’s a compelling late-round pick in deeper leagues or best ball formats, though a cautious approach is warranted given his recovery timeline.

Coming off a injury-plagued 2025, this receiver enters 2026 with an optimistic health outlook and a creative offensive scheme that could unlock his downfield explosiveness. While his ceiling remains that of a strong WR3 with WR2 upside, uneven past production means he’s still a bounce-back candidate rather than a sure-fire weekly difference-maker. Targeting him in the middle rounds offers a solid balance of risk and reward given his volume potential and role security.

Projected as the Jaguars’ top wide receiver and primary punt returner, he offers intriguing late-round upside thanks to a clear path to meaningful targets and return-yardage value in deeper leagues. Health is the main question mark, with a minor injury causing some missed practices but no expected Week 1 absence. Best viewed as a depth piece with breakout potential if he maintains his role and stays on the field.

Coming off a breakout season marked by dual-threat production and a strong passing upside, this young quarterback offers a rare blend of rushing yards and passing volume that sets him apart from typical mid-round options. After managing a late-season shoulder injury that now reportedly feels great, he projects for around 4,000 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and nearly 500 rushing yards, providing both a solid weekly floor and high upside. His mobility not only boosts his fantasy ceiling but also offers stability against the usual volatility seen in young signal-callers, making him a compelling QB1 target outside the elite tier.

Coming off a shoulder procedure with positive health updates, this second-year tight end is poised for a bigger role in Chicago’s offense, especially after the team moved on from a key wide receiver, which should boost his target share. He showed late-season promise as a dynamic piece who can elevate the offense when involved, and the coaching staff’s public praise underscores his development trajectory. While minor injury concerns linger, his strong upside as a reception-friendly TE1 candidate makes him a compelling high-upside pick just outside the top 70 overall.

Coming off a down year after a breakout rookie season, this young wide receiver offers significant upside if he can regain a larger share of targets in a deeper Jacksonville receiving corps. His efficiency dipped in 2025, but at just 23 years old, he remains a high-upside WR3 candidate capable of delivering week-winning performances if his rapport with Trevor Lawrence strengthens. Best drafted as a late-round flyer, he’s a ceiling play rather than a dependable floor given the uncertainty surrounding his volume.

Projected as the lead back in a committee-heavy Carolina backfield, this volume-driven runner offers upside through early-down and goal-line opportunities but lacks true explosiveness. A recent hamstring injury introduces short-term uncertainty, making him a risky Week 1 option until practice participation confirms health. Best viewed as a high-end RB2 or flex with volatile workload and injury risk rather than a dependable every-down bellcow.

Emerging as a focal point in the Colts' passing game, this tight end projects to deliver strong volume with around 80 catches and close to 875 yards, making him a standout mid-round option at a thin position. Despite a minor groin injury in preseason, his outlook remains positive with minimal expected missed time, and he’s poised to offer a high floor thanks to consistent target share in short and intermediate routes. While the addition of a top wideout may slightly limit his ceiling, his combination of projected workload and team fit makes him a reliable starter with upside if the offense stays efficient.

Coming off a foot injury but reportedly fully recovered, he’s positioned as Denver’s lead early-down back with a clear role in a productive offense. While he offers steady volume and goal-line opportunities that project as solid RB2/flex production, competition from younger backs limits his ceiling and snap share. His value hinges on health and workload management, making him a mid-round target with upside but notable injury and committee risk.

Coming off a challenging 2025 marred by a fibula and ankle injury, this wide receiver enters 2026 poised to lead Tampa Bay's receiving corps in a post-Mike Evans offense, with Baker Mayfield expected to rely heavily on him. His three-year, $66 million contract underscores the team's commitment, and his route volume and reliable hands make him a strong PPR asset with clear WR3 value and the potential for WR2 upside. Durability remains a concern, but active participation in camp and a defined role as a primary chain-mover set the stage for a meaningful rebound.

Poised for a significant role as Seattle’s likely lead back, this rookie offers a rare immediate volume opportunity with projections nearing 215 carries and double-digit touchdowns upside. While minor camp injuries have caused some missed reps, the team’s first-round investment and offensive needs suggest a fast track to meaningful work. Consider him a high-upside RB2 candidate or strong RB3 with league-winning potential if he secures the workload early on.

Coming off a 1,000-yard, seven-touchdown season, this receiver offers a stable late-round target thanks to a solidified role as a core Z receiver in Arizona’s offense. His value hinges on a high volume of targets—projected around 110-120—and role stability, but his ceiling is capped when the top option is healthy, making him more of a reliable flex option than a weekly WR2. Best drafted as a dependable depth piece with upside if injuries or shifts in target share open the door for a bigger workload.

This volume-reliant receiver offers steady PPR production anchored by consistent target share rather than big-play upside, making him a dependable WR3 or flex option in the mid-rounds. His recent trade to Pittsburgh provides a clearer role on a team that values him, though a minor hamstring issue poses a slight early-season risk. Best viewed as a safe floor pick who thrives in short-to-intermediate passing schemes, he’s a solid depth asset for managers seeking stability over boom-or-bust upside.

As a high first-round pick stepping into a clear No. 1 receiver role, he offers a rare blend of immediate volume and long-term upside, with projections around 65 receptions and near 900 yards. His path to WR3 production is well-defined, making him a dependable floor, while the ceiling rises if the Titans’ passing game clicks. Keep an eye on a minor August injury, but it appears unlikely to derail his promising rookie campaign.

Coming off a rookie season with 72 receptions, 731 yards, and six touchdowns, this tight end offers a reliable floor and solid upside in PPR formats thanks to consistent target volume. Fully cleared after offseason groin surgery, his health outlook is promising, supporting expectations for a similar role in a Cleveland offense that favors steady involvement over explosive plays. While not a high-ceiling boom-or-bust option, his youth and clear offensive role make him a dependable midrange TE1 candidate for 2026.

Coming off a solid 2025, this tight end offers a blend of proven upside and volatility tied closely to Atlanta’s quarterback play and target distribution with key skill-position teammates. Locked into a lucrative three-year extension, he’s firmly entrenched in the offense but remains a boom-or-bust TE1 option who could finish anywhere from the low end to the top five at the position. Without injury concerns clouding the picture, he’s best viewed as a high-upside starter whose fantasy ceiling depends on a more consistent and productive passing attack.

Locked into a steady role in a crowded Jaguars receiving corps, he offers reliable target volume and chain-moving production rather than explosive upside. His value hinges on Trevor Lawrence’s efficiency and a functional passing attack, making him a dependable WR3/flex with a safer floor in PPR formats. A recent hand injury warrants monitoring but appears more cautionary than serious, reinforcing his profile as a solid mid-round option rather than a game-changing threat.

This quarterback offers a high-end fantasy ceiling thanks to a prolific passing attack featuring top-tier receivers and a fast-paced offense. His main concern is health, as a significant turf toe injury limited him last season, but he’s expected to be fully recovered and ready to produce near the top of the position again. Drafted typically as a mid-tier QB, he’s an excellent value for those willing to prioritize passing volume and efficiency over rushing upside.

Landing in a backfield with two other backs, this player’s value hinges on his role as the top receiving option out of the backfield, making him a PPR-friendly asset. His solid 2025 numbers—over 70 catches and multiple touchdowns—highlight his dual-threat potential, though a timeshare limits his ceiling. As a mid-tier RB with a fresh opportunity in a productive offense, he’s a savvy late-round pick for weekly flex or bye-week fill-in duty.

A reliable veteran quarterback with a strong passing volume and touchdown upside, he offers a high floor thanks to a productive offense loaded with weapons. While his rushing upside is limited compared to more mobile QBs, his accuracy and consistent scoring opportunities keep him in weekly starter consideration. Health is the main concern early on, but if his knee holds up, he’s a solid late-round target with top-10 potential.

Remaining with the same offense under a new system, this tight end offers stability and a reliable target share, making him a solid midrange TE1/TE2 option rather than a weekly game-changer. His recent knee issues warrant some caution, but a full preseason practice suggests health is trending positively. With a modest ceiling and steady floor, he’s best viewed as a dependable starter at a thin position rather than a breakout candidate.

Landing in Washington offers a clear path to a significant target share opposite a top-tier receiver, setting up a reliable weekly floor and WR3 upside in PPR formats. Coming off recovery from an ACL injury with no major decline in 2025, his health trajectory is encouraging for sustained production. While no longer elite, his veteran presence and stable role in a pass-heavy scheme make him a savvy mid-round pick with occasional WR2 potential.

Coming off a QB6 finish last year with nearly 19 fantasy points per game, this signal-caller combines a strong arm and rushing ability that projects to deliver high-end QB1 production in 2026. The offensive environment in Chicago and his clear year-over-year growth set him apart, though his fantasy ceiling hinges on maintaining or improving his rushing output and passing efficiency. Despite a minor ankle scare last postseason, he remains a confident top-10 quarterback target with upside if his red-zone usage expands.

Projected as a steady PPR asset, this player offers reliable volume with upside tied to an expanded role in a developing offense. Health concerns linger but recent updates are positive, making him a middle-round target with WR4 floor and WR3 ceiling potential if target share increases. His value hinges on the Colts leaning into his underneath route-running skills rather than spreading targets widely.

Projected as a mid-round WR3/flex option, he offers intriguing upside thanks to a solid target share and meaningful downfield and red-zone involvement in a Herbert-led offense. A late-August lower-body injury is a minor red flag but shouldn’t derail his season if he stays healthy. Best viewed as a boom-or-bust upside play rather than a consistent WR1, he’s a valuable swing pick who can win you weeks but isn’t a reliable anchor.

Coming off a serious knee injury, this quarterback is on track for a Week 1 return and expected to reclaim top-tier status thanks to his elite passing volume and efficiency. While his rushing upside may take a hit due to workload management early in the season, his proven arm talent and touchdown potential keep him firmly in the premium QB conversation. Managers can confidently build around him, especially in superflex formats, but should temper expectations for early explosiveness on the ground.

This dual-threat quarterback offers a unique fantasy profile with mid-3,000 passing yards complemented by 500-plus rushing yards and multiple ground scores, providing a high weekly ceiling uncommon at the position. His health is a key concern, given recent concussion scares, but when on the field, his rushing upside and ability to produce solid passing stats make him a valuable mid-round target, especially in Superflex or two-QB formats. While not a lock for consistent QB1 production, he presents an appealing blend of upside and volatility for managers seeking breakout potential.

Securing a lucrative contract extension signals the team's commitment to him as a key offensive piece through 2029, despite a 2025 season derailed by injuries. His ability to excel after the catch and contribute in rushing plays, combined with a potentially expanded role amid roster changes, gives him solid WR3/flex upside. However, lingering health concerns and a somewhat unpredictable target share temper his ceiling, making him a worthwhile mid-round gamble for those banking on a bounce-back and increased usage.

Reunited with Brian Daboll, this wide receiver is poised for a volume-heavy role in Tennessee’s offense, averaging over eight targets per game in Daboll’s system and projecting around 80 catches and 800 yards. While competition from a rookie first-round pick and a veteran presence limits his touchdown ceiling, his secure slot usage and short-area target profile make him a PPR-friendly WR3/flex option. Durability concerns linger due to recent injuries, warranting a cautious approach despite a clear path to consistent reception totals.

Coming off an ACL tear, this tight end offers a rare blend of athleticism and proven fantasy upside in an offense eager to feature him once healthy. While Week 1 availability looks likely, expect a cautious snap count early on, making him a high-upside option with a top-three ceiling if he returns to form. Patience is key, but his talent and role set him apart from typical mid-tier targets.

Projected as a steady QB2 with upside to reach QB1 status, this passer combines solid volume and efficiency with enough rushing ability to stabilize weekly scoring. His full recovery from last season's concussion and shoulder injury boosts confidence in a return to consistent production, especially if the Jaguars maintain a supportive offensive scheme. While his floor is safer in superflex or two-QB formats, his ceiling depends heavily on the team’s offensive weapons and structure remaining favorable.

Projected as a low-end RB3 or flex option, this back’s role is firmly committee-based alongside a younger teammate, limiting his upside. His value hinges on passing-down work and touchdowns to maintain a PPR floor, but recent injury issues and declining efficiency raise durability concerns. Best suited as a depth piece rather than a cornerstone, he offers modest weekly flex appeal if he can stay healthy and retain a significant share of snaps.

Injuries have cast uncertainty over this Bears running back's Week 1 availability, but when healthy, he profiles as a high-upside RB3/flex with intriguing handcuff value thanks to a somewhat open workload path. Early MRI reports are encouraging, yet a multi-week absence remains likely, making him more of a short-term risk than a locked-in contributor to start the season. His fantasy value hinges on how quickly he returns, with standalone value intact if he gets back early but relegated to stash status if the knee lingers.

Emerging from a rookie season that highlighted his receiving skills, this back offers intriguing upside in a crowded Denver backfield where workhorses are scarce. Fully healthy after offseason shoulder surgery, his value hinges on efficiency and pass-catching rather than a bell-cow rushing workload, making him a strong mid-round target with RB3 upside. While role competition caps his ceiling, his dual-threat ability provides a safer floor and breakout potential if touches increase.
