Javonte Williams News
Thursday, March 19, 8:20 PM
Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams remains the workhorse option heading into the 2026 season. Williams enjoyed a career resurgence during his first season in Dallas, totaling 1,201 rushing yards, 137 receiving yards, and 13 touchdowns. He was the overall RB12 in PPR leagues, setting the best mark of his career to this point. For his efforts, Williams was rewarded with a three-year, $24 million contract that assures he's the Cowboys' primary ball-carrier for years to come. We do expect Jaydon Blue to get more involved going forward, but he's more of a change-of-pace and handcuff. Blue isn't going to threaten Williams' role in 2026. As a result, Williams remains a fringe top-12 fantasy running back with tremendous touchdown upside in a high-scoring Cowboys offense. It doesn't make sense to buy Williams at his elevated price in dynasty leagues, but it's also too early to sell high on him. He's firmly in the "hold" range this offseason.

Tyler Allgeier News
Thursday, March 26, 6:37 PM
The Arizona Cardinals are setting up to be a run-heavy offense in 2026 under new head coach Mike LaFleur. Running backs James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee) will both be returning from season-ending injuries early in 2025, and the team also signed former Atlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier to a two-year, $12.25 million contract in free agency. The 25-year-old Allgeier could never truly reach his ceiling in Atlanta while working behind stud RB1 Bijan Robinson, and now he could be part of a three-headed RB attack in the desert, depending on the health of both Conner and Benson. Allgeier had a 1,000-yard rushing season in his rookie campaign in 2022 on 210 carries and then regressed each season after that in terms of yardage, although he did have a career-high eight TDs in 17 games in 2025. He's been durable in his four NFL seasons, missing just one game. Allgeier should at the very least be in play as a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex (like he was in Atlanta), but he'll have clear RB2 upside if he emerges as Arizona's backfield leader.
