Is Chris Brooks' Dynasty Cost Still Too Low with the Uncertainty Facing Green Bay's Running Back Room?

Saturday, June 20, 11:53 AM

With running backs Chris Brooks and Emanuel Wilson both facing restricted free agency after the 2025 season, the Green Bay Packers opted to extend an offer to Brooks while allowing Wilson to depart. With the team bypassing the position in both free agency and the draft, Brooks now finds himself battling with 2024 third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd for what could become one of the most valuable insurance roles in the league. With Josh Jacobs' status up in the air following a Memorial Day weekend arrest, either could be thrust into an unexpected starting role in what has been one of the league's run-heaviest offenses in recent years. A frustrating string of injuries has limited Lloyd to only seven total touches over his two years in the league and positioned Brooks as the presumed favorite to claim the primary backup role, though it stands to reason that neither would handle anything close to the 300-carry workload that Jacobs has been given when at full health. With so much uncertainty surrounding both Jacob's legal situation and any division of labor should he miss time, both Brooks and Lloyd need to be rostered in all dynasty leagues, and at RotoBaller's RB94, Brooks is a cheap trade target and smart insurance policy for all Jacobs managers.

Jaylen Wright News

Is Jaylen Wright the Handcuff Running Back to Target in Miami?

Sunday, June 28, 11:18 AM

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright had the start of his 2025 season disrupted by a knee injury, and he finished the year with 332 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 75 touches. As long as star Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) makes a full recovery from offseason shoulder surgery and is ready for the start of 2026 as expected, Wright's production upside is limited. However, Wright may have emerged as the primary RB2 in Miami ahead of fellow Dolphins back Ollie Gordon II down the end of last season. Following the Dolphins' Week 12 bye, Wright matched or exceeded Gordon II's snap count in five out of six games. For dynasty managers looking to roster Achane's handcuff option, Wright could be the player to target.
