Saquon Barkley News
Tuesday, May 5, 7:19 AM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley's ranking in dynasty fantasy football leagues has started to decline now that he's 29 years old. We don't quite know how many seasons he has remaining in his career, but we do know that there's still enough left in the tank for another big year or two. As a result, Barkley represents an interesting trade target for dynasty managers looking to win now. Since he's getting older, his price tag is dropping in trade talks, but he still has the potential to be the RB1 or RB2 on a championship-winning fantasy roster. After all, he was the overall RB14 in PPR leagues last year, and he was the overall RB2 just two years ago. Barkley is an elite athlete himself, and he should also benefit from the Eagles' top-tier offensive line being healthy in 2026. All signs point to him bouncing back as a potential top-12 fantasy running back. As a result, dynasty managers currently in their championship window should consider sending out an offer for the Eagles' superstar ball-carrier.

De'Von Achane News
Wednesday, May 27, 12:40 PM
Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that running back De'Von Achane (shoulder) will be held out of full team drills in OTAs as he recovers from a shoulder injury, per C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald. Achane missed the final game of the 2025 season due to a shoulder injury that Hafley said "had to get cleaned up" over the offseason. While it does not seem as though Achane is in danger of missing time in 2026, it's still noteworthy that the 24-year-old appears to have undergone shoulder surgery since the end of the 2025 campaign. Achane was one of the best running backs in fantasy football last year, recording 1,838 yards from scrimmage and 12 touchdowns on 305 touches across 16 games. He remains a high-end fantasy RB1 heading into 2026, but managers should monitor news on his recovery over the course of the summer months.
