Breece Hall News
Wednesday, July 8, 11:28 AM
New York Jets running back Breece Hall is not cheap in dynasty, but he still looks more like a buy for contenders than a player to sell before the 2026 season. Hall is only 25, just signed a multi-year extension, and gave the Jets a career-high 1,065 rushing yards last year despite another uneven offensive season. He also caught 36 passes for 350 yards, giving him 1,415 yards from scrimmage and five total touchdowns in 16 games. The one thing holding him out of the top dynasty RB tier is workload certainty. His passing-game role was much lighter than it was in 2023, and the Jets still want Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis involved enough to make this more than a one-man backfield. Even so, Hall is locked in as the lead back, carries RB14 value in RotoBaller's July dynasty rankings, and has the contract security rebuilding managers usually want from young backs. Rebuilders do not need to overpay, but win-now teams should be buying if his manager is worried about the committee talk.

Jaleel McLaughlin News
Friday, March 13, 11:15 AM
The Denver Broncos agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday to re-sign running back Jaleel McLaughlin, a source told Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. In addition to McLaughlin, the Broncos already brought back J.K. Dobbins (foot), so they'll have a very similar backfield going into the 2026 campaign, depending on what they do in April's NFL draft. The 25-year-old had a career-low 37 carries last year for 187 yards and one touchdown in eight regular-season games, even with Dobbins suffering a season-ending foot injury halfway through the year. The Broncos also have last year's second-rounder, RJ Harvey, who could have an even bigger role next to Dobbins next season. Unless injuries strike one of Dobbins or Harvey in 2026, McLaughlin probably isn't going to see the field all that often and could be a healthy scratch on game days more often than not. His dynasty/keeper stock is quickly plummeting.
