Derrick Henry Adjusting to New Offensive Scheme in Baltimore

Thursday, June 25, 8:20 AM

Baltimore Ravens new head coach Jesse Minter said that All-Pro running back Derrick Henry will need to adjust to terminology changes this year under new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. The Ravens made some big changes in the offseason, firing long-time head coach John Harbaugh and adding Minter, who will be in his first year as a head coach in the NFL in 2026. Previous offensive coordinator Todd Monken left to become the Cleveland Browns' head coach. Henry and the other Ravens' offensive playmakers have expressed excitement about Doyle's new scheme as they look to bounce back from a frustrating 2025 season that ended without a playoff appearance. The 32-year-old Henry has a lot of tread on his tires after 10 years in the NFL, but he managed his seventh 1,000-yard season (fourth straight) in 2025 and will once again be Baltimore's featured back in his 11th campaign. He's RotoBaller's No. 8 fantasy RB for 2026 and should come off the board in the second round of drafts.

Jeremiyah Love News

Is Jeremiyah Love Overvalued by Current Redraft ADP?

Thursday, June 25, 8:11 AM

The third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Arizona Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love is widely considered to be an elite running back prospect. Across 12 games at Notre Dame in 2025, the 21-year-old recorded 1,652 scrimmage yards and 21 touchdowns on 226 touches. Given the draft capital that the Cardinals invested in Love, he profiles as one of their key building blocks on offense going forward. However, Love may not dominate touches in the Arizona backfield right away as a rookie. The Cardinals signed veteran back Tyler Allgeier to a two-year contract in free agency and also still have running backs James Conner and Trey Benson on their roster. While Arizona made some additions to its offensive line over the offseason, this is still a team that finished 31st in rushing yards and scored just nine rushing touchdowns a season ago. Love's long-term upside is sky-high, but he may be overvalued as a low-end RB1 by current redraft ADP.
