George Holani One of the Draft's Biggest Losers

Tuesday, April 28, 5:25 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani served as the primary backup to Kenneth Walker III in both the NFC Championship and Super Bowl after Zach Charbonnet was lost to an ACL injury in the team's Divisional Round victory over the 49ers. With Walker departing for Kansas City in free agency and Charbonnet's recovery timeline likely to see him miss games in 2026, dynasty managers who were able to scoop up Holani were hoping he could maintain a meaningful role to begin his third season while still expecting the Seahawks to add competition through the NFL Draft. With Seattle holding only four picks entering the draft, there was a thought that they could miss out on one of the true difference-making backs in a weak class, but with so few needs, they were able to be aggressive and spend the final pick of the first round on Notre Dame prospect Jadarian Price. With Price expected to handle lead back duties to begin the year, and Charbonnet likely to complete the committee upon his return, Holani's potential fantasy impact looks to be limited and minimal, and he has fallen to RB99 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings.

Will Shipley News

Will Shipley Falls to RB3 on Depth Chart

Friday, November 21, 11:34 PM

Philadelphia Eagles Will Shipley has been relegated mostly to special teams touches and the occasional carry behind Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby as the team's RB3. The Eagles acquired Bigsby ahead of Week 7, and he's mostly served as the primary backup to Barkley. Since then, Bigsby and Shipley have each played 14.5% of the offensive snaps, but Bigsby has 17 carries to Shipley's seven during that span. The 2024 fourth-round pick entered the season as the No. 2 back for the Eagles, then missed Weeks 2 and 3 due to a rib injury, and has now fallen out of favor with the team, going out and trading for another back to have another capable option behind Barkley. Shipley still has some appeal as a handcuff if Barkley were to go down, but it would likely be a timeshare with Bigsby.
