Outlook Isaac Guerendo
Offseason Pectoral Injury and Backfield Additions Cloud Sophomore Campaign
Isaac Guerendo faces a difficult path to fantasy relevance after suffering a torn pectoral muscle during offseason workouts. The injury sidelines the sophomore running back for the entire offseason program, with a targeted return late in training camp. Slated as the primary backup to Christian McCaffrey, Guerendo must recover quickly to protect his grasp on the RB2 role.
The backfield grew crowded when San Francisco drafted Kaelon Black and Jordan James. These additions, combined with Guerendo's injury, threaten his depth chart security. Our models project him for a limited role, forecasting just 25 carries and 107 rushing yards, meaning he is strictly a deep handcuff rather than a standalone asset.
This adversity has caused his draft stock to plummet. In early May, his ADP held around pick 411, but it has since plummeted past pick 600 in 1.0 PPR formats. While he is now a cheap, high-upside stash, his tumbling momentum reflects that he remains a fading asset in redraft leagues.

Outlook Jonathan Taylor
Elite Heavyweight Workload Solidifies Top-Tier Status as a Premium First-Round Anchor
Jonathan Taylor remains the clear-cut centerpiece of the Colts' offense, leading a backfield depth chart that features DJ Giddens. Coming off a massive 2025 season where he logged 339 carries, he continues to project for heavy volume. Our models forecast another heavy workload with 302 rush attempts and 13 touchdowns on the ground.
His draft stock has steadily climbed over the past month. In mid-May, fantasy managers could occasionally grab him late in the first round, but his ADP has risen to a secure spot at number seven overall. At this price point, our projections view him as an exceptional value in 1.0 PPR formats, especially given his projected 43 receptions.
With 100% ownership and start rates, Taylor is a premier RB1 anchor. While dual-threat quarterback play can sometimes limit red-zone carries, his robust usage floor makes him an incredibly safe bet to return elite early-round value.
