Ashton Jeanty News
Wednesday, June 3, 10:42 AM
Levi Edwards of the Las Vegas Raiders' official site writes that the Raiders have put an emphasis during offseason workouts to make sure running back Ashton Jeanty "thrives and continues to grow in his role as the lead back." The Raiders selected Jeanty with the sixth overall pick last year out of Boise State, and the 22-year-old impressed in his first year in the NFL, leading all rookie RBs in rushing yards (975). Nearly 60% of his yardage came after contact, though. "If I don't have to, I don't want to come off the field," Jeanty said. The second-year back is "doing all the right things" to ensure that he's a three-down workhorse in 2026, according to RBs coach Omar Young. New head coach Klint Kubiak has never had a true workhorse back leading his offenses, but that could change now that he has Jeanty at his disposal. With a new coaching staff in town and quarterbacks Kirk Cousins and Fernando Mendoza under center, Jeanty's fantasy stock is on the rise heading into his second NFL campaign. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 8 fantasy RB for the 2026 season.

Jeremiyah Love News
Monday, June 1, 5:49 AM
Arizona Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love was viewed as the consensus top pick in dynasty rookie drafts for months heading into the 2026 NFL Draft, and even though he landed in one of the most crowded running back rooms in the league, nothing about that ranking has changed. Love was an elite prospect with no holes in his profile, and by selecting him with the third overall pick, the Cardinals signaled a willingness to involve him early and often, even in a room with newly acquired free agent Tyler Allgeier and returning backs, James Conner and Trey Benson. The Cardinals project to have one of the league's lowest win totals in 2026, which is not genuinely an environment that harbors fantasy success from its running backs, but Love's involvement as a pass catcher could provide a safe floor early in his career. While fantasy managers may require patience for him to ultimately reach his ceiling, Love is RotoBaller's dynasty RB4 and can be the exact piece needed to push a team into title contention or extend an existing window.
