Rachaad White Remains Useful for Win-Now Dynasty Teams

Sunday, July 26, 10:21 AM

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White still has a place on win-now dynasty rosters, even if this backfield never gives him a traditional lead role. White finished 2025 with 572 yards and four touchdowns on 132 carries, then added 40 catches for 218 yards. The receiving work has always been the draw. He has 205 receptions through four NFL seasons, and Dan Quinn specifically pointed to what White added in the passing game during the offseason program. Washington has not named a starter, though Quinn expects several backs to handle important parts of the job. Jacory Croskey-Merritt led the team with 805 rushing yards and eight touchdowns last season, while Jerome Ford, Jeremy McNichols, and rookie Kaytron Allen leave plenty to sort out in camp. White may not get enough carries to become a weekly starter, but he does not need that kind of workload to help in PPR leagues. RotoBaller ranks him RB37 in dynasty. At 27 and on a one-year contract, he offers little reason for rebuilding teams to wait. Contenders can use the catches now and live with the uncertainty.

Jadarian Price Working Toward Early-Down Role

Saturday, August 1, 10:34 AM

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price has been splitting first-team work with George Holani, but their roles are starting to look different. According to Zain Dhanani, Price is expected to handle the regular early-down work, while Holani specializes on third downs and in two-minute situations. Emanuel Wilson has generally worked with the second unit. That is a useful opening for Price with Zach Charbonnet still on the PUP list following ACL surgery. Seattle selected the 5-foot-11, 209-pound back 32nd overall after he rushed 113 times for 674 yards and 11 touchdowns at Notre Dame last season. Price's first-round investment and current usage put him in line for meaningful carries if this arrangement holds. Holani's passing-down role could make Price more dependent on rushing volume and scoring chances, and Charbonnet's recovery remains an important unknown. Still, Price has the clearest path to early-down fantasy value among Seattle's healthy backs right now.
