Outlook James Conner
Entering a Late-Career Supporting Role in an Increasingly Crowded Backfield
James Conner enters the upcoming season operating behind Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier on the offensive depth chart, signaling a significant shift away from his previous workhorse status. Our models project him for 59 rushing attempts and 227 rushing yards, accompanied by 13 receptions for 89 yards, culminating in a modest 57.4 fantasy points under a full-season outlook.
His draft market trajectory reflects this diminishing role, with his ADP holding relatively stable around pick 174 over the past month. While managers in deeper leagues might view this late-round cost as a cheap handcuff opportunity, our projections suggest his ceiling is heavily capped barring injuries ahead of him on the roster.
With overall fantasy ownership sitting near 23 percent and virtually zero starting confidence across formats, Conner profiles strictly as a situational depth piece rather than a reliable weekly contributor. Fantasy managers should treat him as a late-round lottery ticket rather than an impactful asset.

Outlook Jerry Jeudy
Securing a lucrative extension and anchoring the receiving corps, he enters the year as a stable target earner in Cleveland's offense.
Jerry Jeudy enters the campaign fresh off signing a three-year contract extension and receiving high praise from the front office, locking him in as the primary option on the outside of the depth chart alongside Denzel Boston. His draft cost has stabilized in the late rounds, hovering consistently around a 164 ADP over the past month, presenting fantasy managers with an affordable floor play in 1.0 PPR formats.
Our season projections look for Jeudy to haul in around 42 receptions for 560 yards and 2 touchdowns, reflecting a steady baseline following a productive stretch of past seasons. While his touchdown upside has occasionally fluctuated, his projected target volume keeps him heavily involved in the passing game plan.
Fantasy managers drafting Jeudy can expect a reliable depth piece who commands steady routes without breaking the bank in drafts. His current market price aligns closely with our expectations, making him a dependable late-round investment for roster depth.
