Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams said he was "feeling good" about the possibility of him reaching a long-term contract extension with the team. "I know with time it's going to happen," Williams added. The two sides started talking about a potential extension in late March, but nothing has been agreed upon yet. The 24-year-old former fifth-round pick (164th overall) in 2022 out of Notre Dame was a first-time Pro Bowler in 2023 but was even better last year, rushing for a career-best 1,299 yards and a career-high 14 rushing touchdowns on 316 rushing attempts in 16 regular-season starts. He also added 34 receptions for 182 yards and another two TDs. In the last two years for the Rams, Williams has been as productive as they come, finding the end zone 31 times in 28 games. He was the RB6 in half-PPR scoring in 2024 and will be a clear RB1 target this fall in fantasy drafts.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie first-round running back Ashton Jeanty used a unique backfield stance in his final season at Boise State last year, standing straight up before a snap to give him a better view of the defensive alignment. However, in OTAs with the Raiders, Jeanty has used a more prototypical stance at the suggestion of offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, who thinks it gives the RB a stronger base to explode out of once the ball is snapped. The 21-year-old was the sixth overall pick in this year's NFL draft and will immediately come in and take over RB1 duties in Vegas, with veteran Raheem Mostert backing him up. Jeanty is physical, fast and hard to tackle and profiles as a workhorse back while excelling on the ground and through the air. Expect to pay a pretty penny on draft day for Jeanty in both redraft and dynasty drafts with expectations sky-high entering his rookie campaign.
