Jaylen Wright News
Wednesday, August 5, 11:18 AM
Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright has moved into a clearer spot than he occupied a year ago. The team's current depth chart lists him behind De'Von Achane and ahead of Ollie Gordon II, and Wright gave Miami its best look at what he can do with volume when he ran 24 times for 107 yards and a touchdown against the Jets in Week 14. That is the appeal. The weekly role is still hard to find. Achane totaled 1,838 yards from scrimmage last season and is signed through 2030, while Gordon handled 18 red-zone carries and scored four times as a rookie. Wright also caught only five passes in 10 games, so there is not much of a receiving floor. He remains the more interesting backup because he is 23, averaged 4.1 yards per carry last season, and sits second on the depth chart. His current ADP of 211th overall and RB69 makes the gamble painless. Wright is worth a final pick as Achane insurance, especially for managers who draft Miami's starter. Without an injury ahead of him, though, he is unlikely to offer enough touches to become a weekly redraft option.

Adam Randall News
Monday, August 10, 7:36 AM
Baltimore Ravens running back Adam Randall continues to make a strong impression as the coaching staff puts more on his plate during training camp. According to Sports Illustrated, the fifth-round rookie is working at running back and wide receiver, learning some tight end concepts, contributing on special teams and making progress with NFL pass protection. Running backs coach Eddie Faulkner said Randall has a "really high ceiling" and praised how quickly he has picked things up after playing just one full college season at running back. Randall rushed for 814 yards and 10 touchdowns at Clemson last season while catching 36 passes for 254 yards and three more scores. Derrick Henry and Justice Hill remain ahead of him, while Randall is battling Rasheen Ali for work further down the depth chart. The preseason should give Baltimore a chance to test Randall in several different situations and show whether his unusual skill set can earn him an immediate role.
