Rachaad White News
Tuesday, July 14, 10:10 AM
After spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, running back Rachaad White is entering his first season with the Washington Commanders in 2026. Across 17 games with Tampa Bay in 2025, White recorded 790 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 172 touches. The 27-year-old has never been the most efficient rusher, as he's averaged 3.9 yards per carry for his career. However, White has averaged over 50 catches and 350 receiving yards per season as a pro. He's also been exceptionally durable, missing just one game over the last four years. In Washington, White is part of a crowded running back room that also includes Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen, Jeremy McNichols, and Jeremy Ford. While Croskey-Merritt and Allen specifically may have more upside as rushers, White may offer the most three-down reliability. If White emerges as the lead back in Washington, he could be a bargain at his current redraft ADP of RB38.

Blake Corum News
Friday, June 26, 12:14 PM
After seeing limited playing time as a rookie in 2024, Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum took on a significantly larger role in his team's offense in 2025. Across 17 games, the 25-year-old recorded 746 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 145 carries. Corum's workload upside with Los Angeles remains limited by the presence of Rams running back Kyren Williams, who recorded over 1,500 scrimmage yards and 13 touchdowns in 2025. However, Corum proved last season that he can be productive even while ceding touches to Williams. If Los Angeles opts for a slightly more even workload split between its two backs in 2026, Corum could emerge as a consistent flex option for fantasy managers. Of course, Corum is also perhaps the most valuable handcuff option in fantasy football, as he would immediately vault into borderline RB1 territory if Williams were to go down with an injury. All in all, Corum may be slightly undervalued by current redraft ADP as the 35th running back off the board.
