Washington's Projected Lead Back Offers Major Draft-Day Value

Despite his low-cost perception in drafts, Jacory Croskey-Merritt enters his sophomore season atop Washington's backfield depth chart ahead of Rachaad White. Our projections estimate him leading the team with 157 carries, positioning him for a substantial early-down workload.

We project him to turn those opportunities into 734 rushing yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Having averaged an efficient 4.6 yards per carry on 175 attempts as a rookie last year, his efficiency suggests a solid foundational floor.

His draft-day price has settled stably around an ADP of 119 over the past month, slightly down from early June. At this late-round range in PPR formats, the market is pricing him as a bench stash, making him an outstanding value target as a potential starting fantasy asset.

Outlook Drake London

Secured by a Massive Extension, Atlanta's Premier Pass-Catcher Enters His Prime as a Top-Tier Fantasy Target

Highlighting a record-breaking four-year, $141 million extension, Drake London is firmly established as Atlanta's lead receiver. Paired with teammates Kyle Pitts Sr. and Jahan Dotson, London's target share is secure. After posting highly efficient numbers in an injury-shortened 2025, his role in the offense remains secure.

Our projections anticipate a stellar campaign, forecasting 91 receptions, 1,251 yards, and eight touchdowns. This closely mirrors his elite 2024 season, where he caught 100 passes for 1,271 yards. London's ability to win downfield and inside the red zone anchors his lofty fantasy floor.

Draft market trends reveal his ADP briefly spiked to 7 during extension hype but has since settled at a stable price of 16. In 1.0 PPR formats, this mid-second-round cost represents an outstanding draft-day value. We view him as a secure foundational WR1 rather than an over-hyped reach.
