Rachaad White Undervalued in Dynasty Leagues Despite a Path to Upside

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.

Tyjae Spears Facing Competition in a Contract Year

Sunday, April 26, 9:18 AM

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears will face added competition in the backfield during the 2026 season. Spears and teammate Tony Pollard survived the first two days of the draft without the team selecting a running back, but that changed on Day 3 when they selected Penn State standout Nicholas Singleton. Singleton had an explosive 2024 season but cooled off in 2025, dropping his draft stock significantly. Still, the Penn State product has proven that he is a talented player capable of contributing on the ground or through the air. That's bad news for Spears, who is a pass-catching specialist and typically gets on the field for third downs. Singleton had 91 catches and 902 receiving yards over his final three collegiate seasons. It's a contract year for Spears, so he'll do everything he can to fight for playing time so that he can showcase himself ahead of free agency. Day 3 picks typically don't contribute right away, so Spears will at least have an opportunity to solidify his role early in the season.
