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.

Isiah Pacheco News
Friday, May 8, 12:59 PM
Detroit Lions running back Isiah Pacheco enters 2026 looking to revitalize his career after consecutive disastrous seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024 and 2025. A fractured fibula limited Pacheco to seven games in 2024, and he recorded just 563 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns across 13 games in 2025. The Lions signed Pacheco to a modest one-year, $1.8 million contract in free agency, and he figures to serve as the RB2 behind Jahmyr Gibbs in Detroit. While Gibbs' presence obviously limits Pacheco's fantasy upside, former Lions back David Montgomery collected 716 rushing yards and eight touchdowns while playing behind Gibbs in 2025. Should Pacheco see similar usage to Montgomery, he could be a matchup-dependent flex option while carrying latent handcuff upside. His dynasty stock has obviously taken a hit over the past couple of seasons, but Pacheco may still be a decent buy-low target for dynasty managers.
