Is There Any Value Still to Be Squeezed from Joe Mixon?

Tuesday, April 14, 6:00 AM

When he last took the field, free agent running back Joe Mixon was able to turn 20 touches into exactly 100 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately, that came 15 months ago in a divisional playoff loss that ended the Texans' 2024 campaign. A mysterious offseason foot injury sustained outside the team facility cost Mixon the entire 2025 season, and he was released prior to the start of the new league year. Because so little information was provided about the injury, dynasty managers are left in a precarious position. The soon-to-be-30-year-old Mixon has become a frustrating hold, as the potential value he could bring by latching on with an NFL team after the draft still outweighs much of what can be found on the dynasty waiver wire. Should a depth-seeking contender offer a late fourth-round pick, he'd be an easy sell, but even that kind of offer would likely require an update to his status or sorts, and as fantasy managers have come to realize all too well, waiting on a Mixon status update has become a patient man's game.

Kyren Williams News

Kyren Williams Becoming a Better Dynasty Value by the Day

Monday, April 27, 6:00 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has finished as the RB9 or better in each of the past three years, and a league-winning season looked inevitable had he not missed significant time in his 2023 breakout campaign. For the first time since 2016, the Rams did not add to the running back room through the NFL Draft, and yet the 25-year-old Williams continues to slide in dynasty rankings, currently slotting in as RotoBaller's RB17. Concerns of Blake Corum's expanding role are justified after the team seemed to make a concerted effort to keep Williams fresh down the stretch, and with Corum's five rushing touchdowns trailing only Derrick Henry over the final six weeks of the season, he has rightfully earned more touches moving forward. That said, Williams' contract runs through 2028, and even 55-60% of the running back snaps and the bulk of the receiving work in what again projects to be one of the most high-powered offenses in the league could result in another RB1 finish, making him a smart buy at his current cost.
