Outlook Jacory Croskey-Merritt

Plummeting Draft Cost Opens Up High-Yield Value in Washington's Backfield

Jacory Croskey-Merritt enters his second NFL season poised to lead Washington's backfield rotation after handling 175 carries at a solid 4.6 yards per carry in 2025. While listed atop the depth chart ahead of Rachaad White, his role remains predominantly on early downs after tallying only nine catches last year.

Our projections anticipate steady volume on the ground, pegging him for 180 rushing attempts, 795 yards, and eight touchdowns, with a modest 12 receptions. Sharing touches keeps him in committee territory, but his projected scoring punch inside the red zone offers dependable touchdown-dependent utility.

The market has grown skeptical as draft day approaches. His ADP tumbled from near pick 110 in mid-August down into the 150s following a late-August lower-body injury. With roster ownership near 89% yet draft capital cheapening, our projections view this price dip as an attractive late-round value steal.
