Lead Early-Down Back Offers Late-Round Value Despite Draft Slide
Jacory Croskey-Merritt enters his second season positioned to lead Washington's backfield after logging 175 carries at 4.6 yards per rush in 2025. Listed atop the depth chart ahead of Rachaad White, he should handle primary early-down and short-yardage duties for this offense.
Market sentiment has cooled considerably, with his ADP tumbling from round ten (around 111) in early August down to pick 154. In 1.0 PPR leagues, that plummeting price transforms him into a potential draft-day steal. Our projections anticipate 180 carries, 800 rushing yards, and eight scores.
A late-summer lower-body issue clouds his immediate availability, driving his start rate down to 4%. However, his 90% rostered mark proves fantasy managers recognize his opportunity. Once healthy, he will provide steady RB3 or flex production with weekly touchdown equity.

Outlook Jordan Love
Plummeting Draft Cost Creates Tremendous Late-Round Value
Jordan Love enters the season firmly commanding Green Bay's offense following an efficient 2025 campaign where he delivered 3,843 passing yards, 27 touchdowns, and just six interceptions. Training camp reports indicate head coach Matt LaFleur is ready to push an up-tempo pace, giving the quarterback more freedom to dictate plays at the line.
Our season projections forecast another reliable output with 3,825 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 257.0 fantasy points. Even with lead back Josh Jacobs sidelined on the exempt list, Love is surrounded by viable perimeter weapons including Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and rookie Matthew Golden, maintaining a stable scoring floor.
Market sentiment, however, has drifted sharply downward. Love's ADP tumbled from pick 127 in late July down past 190 by September. In 1.0 PPR formats, this sliding draft capital turns him into an outstanding late-round value steal relative to our models, especially given his modest 55% roster rate.
