Rachaad White News
Saturday, May 9, 6:00 AM
Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White is being valued as a low-end RB4 in consensus dynasty rankings despite arguably landing in his best situation since finishing as the RB7 in 2023. For the past two seasons in Tampa, White has split the backfield with another capable pass-catcher in Bucky Irving, but upon signing a one-year deal with the Commanders, the dedicated receiving role looks to be entirely his. None of the other backs currently on the roster topped 26 receptions in 2025, and on his way to becoming Penn State's all-time leading rusher, sixth-round pick Kaytron Allen never recorded more than 18 catches in a season. White's 40 receptions in 2025 marked a career low after averaging 55 catches across his first three seasons. He is RotoBaller's dynasty RB35, despite exceeding that finish in each of the last three years, making him a low-cost trade target who should provide a safe weekly floor through target volume alone, while still having a chance to carve out a larger role in a below-average running back room.

Dylan Sampson News
Tuesday, April 28, 5:50 AM
Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson led the team in targets and receptions out of the backfield as a fourth-round rookie in 2025, and his role appears to be secure heading into his second season. After double-dipping at the position last year, the Browns made no additions to the running back room in the 2026 NFL Draft, though they did make improvements to the offense as a whole, which could create more scoring opportunities for both Sampson and 2025 second-round pick Quinshon Judkins, who appears to be on track for the season opener after suffering a dislocated ankle in Week 16. Cleveland spent the ninth overall pick on offensive tackle Spencer Fano before adding wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston within 15 picks of one another in the first and second rounds, transforming a position of weakness into one of potential strength. The Browns still head into 2026 with a less-than-ideal quarterback situation, though negative game scripts could work in the favor of Sampson if he's able to fully take hold of the dedicated passing back role, and at RotoBaller's dynasty RB51, he offers clear upside as a low-cost trade target or add-on to a larger deal.
