Is Najee Harris the Top Free Agent Back Left on the Market?

Friday, May 29, 5:50 AM

Free agent running back Najee Harris is a name to monitor as teams around the league gather for organized practices and get their first real looks at the rosters they've assembled throughout the offseason. Should injury or legal situation create an unexpected running back need, Harris is arguably the most intriguing option left on the market despite his 2025 season ending after only 15 carries with a ruptured Achilles. Before landing with the Chargers, he had volumed his way to 1,000 rushing yards in each of his four seasons in Pittsburgh, though efficiency was never his calling card even prior to the injury. At 28 years old, any return to action will likely come in a committee role, but in the right situation, he could still find enough fantasy relevance to justify a roster spot in deep dynasty leagues. At RotoBaller's dynasty RB82, Harris is potentially sitting on waiver wires, and while he may not find a new home until well into training camp, he's worth a low-stakes claim wherever available while his perceived value is still at its floor.

RJ Harvey Still the Leader in a Crowded Backfield?

Wednesday, May 6, 7:47 AM

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey remains the projected No. 1 option atop the depth chart, but it would be surprising to see him carve out an every-down role after the team re-signed J.K. Dobbins and drafted Jonah Coleman. It took a while for Harvey to occupy a significant role as a rookie last season, and he only started averaging 16+ touches per game once Dobbins went down with an injury. Now that Dobbins is healthy and back on the roster, he should chip into Harvey's workload. Meanwhile, we expect Coleman to steal some touches, too. It might not happen right away since he's a rookie with Day 3 draft capital, but there have been plenty of analysts who view Coleman as an eventual three-down back and potential late-round steal. The problem with adding Coleman to the mix is that it doesn't just impact Harvey's redraft value, but it hurts him in dynasty leagues, too. He has fallen to RB25 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings, and it's difficult to envision him climbing much higher than that as the Broncos appear committed to a shared backfield.
