Episode notes
Running Back Depth In 2025
- The 2025 RB class was unusually deep with 17 different rushers topping 1,000 yards, the most since 2006.
- That depth created late-draft value and unexpected breakout RB2s like ETN and Kenneth Gainwell.
Javante’s Ground-First Profile
- Javante Williams emerged as a late-round fantasy steal after rare breakout production and 1,200 rushing yards.
- His receiving usage remained minimal, limiting PPR upside despite strong rushing totals.
Jacobs Is Elite When Healthy
- Josh Jacobs remained a dominant force when healthy but injuries reduced snap share and late-season consistency.
- Expect him to rebound if he plays a full season, making him draftable with cautious optimism.
