Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Ray Davis

The New York Jets will use the franchise or transition tag on impending free-agent running back Breece Hall if they can't get a contract extension done before the March 3 deadline, general manager Darren Mougey told Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. The franchise tag would take Hall off the market completely this offseason, while the transition tag would allow him to receive offers from other teams, but the Jets would have the right to match any offer. The transition tag will save the Jets a little more money and seems like the expected course of action here with the 24-year-old, who had a career-high 1,065 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 243 carries in 16 games in 2025. Hall also added 36 catches for 350 yards and a receiving score. A move out of New York would probably be best for Hall's 2026 fantasy value given their uncertain situation at QB, but there's no questioning that his stock is on the rise as an RB2 going into next season after his strong performance in 2025.

Buffalo Bills second-year running back Ray Davis saw his workload reduced drastically from year one to two, as the team finally gave James Cook the workhorse duties fantasy managers have been clamoring for for years. Cook saw the highest snap count of his career and obliterated his previous-high usage total, seeing a total of 348 opportunities on the way to his first career rushing title. Meanwhile, Davis saw his opportunities drop from 131 as a rookie to only 71 in year two. With Buffalo's offense still among the highest scoring in the league, Davis' value purely as a handcuff is enough to keep him rostered in deeper dynasty leagues. However, with Ty Johnson still working ahead of him in the passing game, he is by no means a must-hold for managers facing a roster crunch.
