Josh Jacobs News
Friday, June 26, 6:01 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been one of fantasy's most consistent contributors when healthy, but allowing for the uncertainty stemming from his pending legal situation, he projects as one of the biggest boom-or-bust picks in 2026 drafts. Jacobs was the RB5 in 2024 and remained a top 12 fantasy back last season despite missing two games and playing through injury over the back half of the year. He has scored 30 total touchdowns in his 32 games with the Packers, and behind an offensive line that should see improvement in the run game, a healthy Jacobs is a near-lock to outperform his current ranking of RotoBaller's RB17. Green Bay has made no corresponding moves at running back since news first broke of his domestic violence allegations, and while charges have yet to be filed against him, the risk of suspension will follow Jacobs into the year, likely keeping him out of the first two rounds of 2026 drafts and threatening to derail his season altogether.

J.K. Dobbins News
Monday, June 15, 6:10 PM
Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins had a deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars nearly done in free agency earlier this year before he re-signed with the Broncos on a two-year, $8 million fully guaranteed deal, a source told Luca Evans of The Denver Post. Before suffering a season-ending Lisfranc foot injury, Dobbins ranked fifth in the NFL in rushing yards (772) through 10 games in 2025 in his first year in Denver. When healthy, the 27-year-old has been one of the best RBs in per-touch effectiveness, but the former second-rounder by the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 out of Ohio State has never played a full season in his five years in the NFL. The Broncos averaged 4.8 yards per carry with Dobbins healthy last year, and 3.8 yards per carry without him, so they clearly think he's important to their backfield. Second-year back RJ Harvey (shoulder) isn't an ideal between-the-tackles runner, which is why Denver added Jonah Coleman in the fourth round of this year's draft. Dobbins' upside is obvious, but durability issues give him a scary floor, especially in what could be a three-headed monster of a backfield in Denver in 2026. Right now, RotoBaller has Dobbins ranked as the No. 31 fantasy RB as he looks to battle for touches with Coleman and Harvey in his second year with the Broncos.
