Emanuel Wilson News

Emanuel Wilson May Be Undervalued by Current Redraft ADP

Monday, June 29, 12:19 PM

After spending the first three years of his NFL career with the Green Bay Packers, running back Emanuel Wilson is entering his first season with the Seattle Seahawks in 2026. Wilson was a productive player while mostly playing a backup role in Green Bay in 2025, recording 595 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 140 touches across 17 games. Entering 2026, the Seahawks running back room is in a state of flux after losing Kenneth Walker III to the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency. The team used its first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on running back Jadarian Price, and steady veteran Zach Charbonnet (knee) will be part of the backfield mix once he fully recovers from his torn ACL. However, Charbonnet may miss the start of the regular season, and Price may not be ready to take on a RB1 workload right away as a rookie. As the RB62 by average draft position in redraft leagues, Wilson is a low-cost flier for fantasy managers who could be a significant piece of his team's offense in the early portion of 2026.

Jaydon Blue News

Cowboys Seeing "Night and Day" Difference With Jaydon Blue

Thursday, June 25, 10:56 AM

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue was a non-factor in his first year in the NFL in 2025 after the Cowboys took him in the fifth round out of the University of Texas, only carrying the ball 38 times for 129 yards and one touchdown while catching one pass for a gain of five yards in five games. Malik Davis became the primary backup to workhorse Javonte Williams, and he finished as the team's second-leading rusher (250 yards). Blue was never the lead RB in college with the Longhorns, but he was a key member of their backfield. It was a disappointing first year in the NFL for the 22-year-old, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer said the difference in Blue during the offseason program has been "night and day." Williams is the Cowboys' unquestioned lead back after inking a new three-year, $24 million deal after posting a career-high 1,201 rushing yards in 2025. Blue will have a chance to compete with Davis and Phil Mafah for an increased role in his sophomore season in 2026. There's some sleeper potential here for the second-year RB, with RotoBaller ranking him as the No. 75 fantasy RB.
