Justice Hill's Role in Question After NFL Draft

Saturday, May 2, 5:50 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill was an early offseason winner when the team declined to offer fourth-year speedster Keaton Mitchell a restricted free agent tender, allowing him to sign with the Chargers and removing Hill's biggest competition for passing down work from the roster. Unfortunately for Hill, the Ravens selected Clemson's Adam Randall in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and while at 6'2" and 235 pounds, Randall profiles physically closer to lead back Derrick Henry, he began his college career as a wide receiver, and his clearest path to an early role is through the passing game. Randall's unique background and rare measurables could eventually make him an every-down back, but as long as Henry is on the roster, any early success he finds will be at the expense of Hill. Hill handled only 1.8 carries across his ten games in 2025, but still saw 27 targets. Should that receiving work dry up, he will offer very little in terms of fantasy production, and he becomes an obvious drop candidate, reflected by his current RB102 Rotoballer dynasty ranking.

Ashton Jeanty a Top Dynasty Buy Ahead of the NFL Draft?

Tuesday, April 21, 8:08 AM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty was one of the hottest names in dynasty fantasy football just one year ago. The buzz around the Boise State product has cooled down slightly, and managers should capitalize on this opportunity to acquire the running back in dynasty fantasy football leagues. It felt like there was this perception during the regular season that Jeanty was inconsistent, or perhaps even underperforming. The former may be true, but the latter certainly isn't, as Jeanty finished his rookie campaign as the RB11 in PPR leagues with 975 rushing yards, 346 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns. The softened narrative was likely caused by the state of the Raiders' offense, as the team limped to a 3-14 record that was the worst in the NFL. That narrative will shift in the coming weeks as the Raiders embark on a new chapter with consensus No. 1 pick Fernando Mendoza. The state of Vegas' offense is trending up, and Mendoza's presence should drive up the value of all Raiders skill players in fantasy football, including Jeanty. Plus, in a draft that is relatively sparse at the running back position, we don't expect the Raiders to bring in any major competition for the former first-round pick. All in all, Jeanty continues to trend up and should be in the conversation as a potential top-five fantasy running back in 2026. He has top-tier upside in dynasty fantasy football leagues, ranking as RotoBaller's overall RB3. Dynasty managers should buy now before it's too late.
