Who Should I Start? Rachaad White or Jaydon Blue

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White said he's down to around 212 pounds at training camp and is lighter and quicker and is enjoying how it helps his conditioning and stamina, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. White's fantasy stock is down in 2025 -- he's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 41 back -- and will be hoping for primary pass-catching duties in Tampa's backfield behind Bucky Irving, who broke out in 2024. The 26-year-old former third-rounder (91st overall) in 2022 is the perfect handcuff to Irving this year, as he'd likely have a huge role for the Bucs if anything were to happen to Irving. Last year, White had 613 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 144 carries (career-best 4.3 yards per carry) while adding 51 catches for 393 yards and a career-high six receiving TDs. White profiles as an RB4/flex for fantasy managers in PPR leagues.

Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer had more good things to say about rookie running back Jaydon Blue at training camp on Thursday. "He's electric when he gets the ball," Schottenheimer said. Blue, a fifth-round selection this April, has quickly distanced himself from a report before training camp suggesting the 21-year-old RB was "borderline lazy." Since then, he's done nothing but impress with "good burn" and elite speed and pass-catching ability as he competes for playing time in 2025. He's also seen work with the first-team offense and didn't disappoint. Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders came into camp as the favorites for most of the early-season touches, but Dallas may be re-evaluating that right now. Blue's fantasy stock is most definitely on the rise and he should be a popular late-round dart throw at RB.
