Outlook Derrick Henry

Ageless Wonder Remains an Elite Fantasy Anchor in Baltimore's Power Run Game

Entering Year 11, Derrick Henry remains the premier lead back for Baltimore, comfortably ahead of Justice Hill on the depth chart. Despite being 32, Henry’s extreme dedication to physical conditioning and diet has preserved his dominant form. Our models project him to handle 286 rushing attempts, ensuring a high-volume weekly floor.

Concerns about age-related decline have been consistently defied by his production. Following a robust 2025 campaign where he averaged 5.1 yards per carry, our projections expect 1,468 rushing yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. His red-zone dominance and tackle-breaking ability keep him locked in as a top-tier fantasy asset.

Looking at draft trends, Henry’s ADP has surged back to 22.00 after a brief late-May dip near 51.00. This stable, late-second-round draft cost represents immense value in PPR formats compared to our projected 260.1 fantasy points. He is a phenomenal anchor target for managers seeking reliable RB1 production.

Outlook Kyren Williams

A secure lead role in Los Angeles keeps this productive back in the early-round conversation.

Kyren Williams remains the lead back in Los Angeles, sitting atop a depth chart that includes backup Blake Corum. Williams has proven himself as a reliable asset, coming off a productive season. Our models project him to lead the backfield again with 232 carries, 1,095 rushing yards, and 10 rushing touchdowns.

His draft cost has stabilized recently, with his ADP settling around 31 after a brief spike in late May. This late third-round price represents an appealing value in 1.0 PPR formats. Fantasy managers are getting a proven producer at a discount due to depth chart addition worries.

In addition to his ground game, Williams is projected for 32 receptions on 39 targets for 230 yards and two scores. Backed by high ownership and start rates across leagues, he should be viewed as a regular fantasy starter with immense weekly upside.
