Tony Pollard Remains the Lead Back for Now

Wednesday, April 1, 9:21 PM

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has held onto the No. 1 role throughout the first few weeks of free agency. The only notable running back signing the Titans have made so far is Michael Carter, who projects as the third-string back behind Pollard and Tyjae Spears. Both Spears and Carter should log some touches, but we expect Pollard to remain in the lead-back role heading into the final portion of his three-year, $21 million contract. The 28-year-old managed to finish as the overall RB23 in PPR leagues last season, largely thanks to a strong second half. From Week 14-18, he was the overall RB11, scoring three touchdowns and delivering three 100-yard performances during that span. Pollard has accumulated 1,000+ rushing yards in each of the last four seasons, and we wouldn't be surprised to see him hit that mark again in 2026, as long as the Titans don't select his replacement in this month's NFL Draft. The veteran ball-carrier is a hold in most dynasty leagues, since his fantasy outlook post-2026 remains murky.

Kyren Williams News

Kyren Williams a Value RB1 in Dynasty Leagues?

Friday, April 3, 11:05 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams had another terrific season in 2025, ranking as a top-10 fantasy running back for the third year in a row. He contributed over 1,500 scrimmage yards and 13 touchdowns, and he also appeared in all 17 games for the first time in his four-year career. Williams has cemented himself as the lead running back in Los Angeles. While the Rams did get Blake Corum more involved last year, that exercise was more intended to manage Williams' workload so he stayed healthy for the full year. There's no threat of Corum stealing his job. This level of RB1 consistency is rare in fantasy football, and it could point to Williams being a top-five running back in the future. Yet, he is currently being drafted at an ADP of 54 in dynasty startups, which ranks him as the RB18 in dynasty formats. Therein lies a terrific opportunity for dynasty managers to buy low on Williams. If he's valued as the 18th-best running back but has consistently ranked within the top 10, then most managers should be pouncing at the opportunity to buy low on Williams this offseason.
