D'Andre Swift News
Wednesday, May 6, 5:36 AM
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift has finished as the RB23 or better in each of his six seasons in the league, most recently turning in a career-best RB15 finish in 2025. Entering his second season in Ben Johnson's Bears offense, RotoBaller's dynasty RB26 represents an affordable RB2 who may not always look pretty, but consistently returns value. Johnson has modeled his offense in Chicago after the one he ran so successfully in Detroit. With Swift handling the role he first held with the Lions before it was perfected by Jahmyr Gibbs, he should continue to offer a reliable floor even with 2025 seventh-rounder Kyle Monangai proving capable of handling the David Montgomery role as a rookie. Quarterback Caleb Williams and the Bears offense as a whole are expected to take another step forward in year two under Johnson, which could lead to more scoring opportunities for both backs. At 27 years old, Swift should still have plenty of good football ahead of him, making him a smart dynasty buy who could realistically help to extend the window for contending managers.

Ashton Jeanty News
Tuesday, April 21, 8:08 AM
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty was one of the hottest names in dynasty fantasy football just one year ago. The buzz around the Boise State product has cooled down slightly, and managers should capitalize on this opportunity to acquire the running back in dynasty fantasy football leagues. It felt like there was this perception during the regular season that Jeanty was inconsistent, or perhaps even underperforming. The former may be true, but the latter certainly isn't, as Jeanty finished his rookie campaign as the RB11 in PPR leagues with 975 rushing yards, 346 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns. The softened narrative was likely caused by the state of the Raiders' offense, as the team limped to a 3-14 record that was the worst in the NFL. That narrative will shift in the coming weeks as the Raiders embark on a new chapter with consensus No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza. The state of Vegas' offense is trending up, and Mendoza's presence should drive up the value of all Raiders skill players in fantasy football, including Jeanty. Plus, in a draft that is relatively sparse at the running back position, we don't expect the Raiders to bring in any major competition for the former first-round pick. All in all, Jeanty continues to trend up and should be in the conversation as a potential top-five fantasy running back in 2026. He has top-tier upside in dynasty fantasy football leagues, ranking as RotoBaller's overall RB3. Dynasty managers should buy now before it's too late.
