Tyler Allgeier News
Friday, June 5, 12:21 PM
After spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Atlanta Falcons, running back Tyler Allgeier signed a two-year, $12.25 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals this past March. At the time of signing, Allgeier looked like the RB1 in Arizona. However, the Cardinals used the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on highly-touted running back prospect Jeremiyah Love. It's an ironic twist of fate for Allgeier, who spent most of his time in Atlanta in a complementary role to Falcons running back Bijan Robinson. Still, Allgeier found ways to be productive in Atlanta, collecting 1,851 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns on 466 carries while playing with Robinson over the past three seasons. If Love needs some time to develop at the NFL level, Allgeier is more than capable of stepping in. Even if Love hits the ground running, Allgeier profiles as one of the best handcuff running back options for dynasty managers. In dynasty leagues, Allgeier may still be worth buying low on heading into 2026.

Dylan Sampson News
Friday, June 5, 8:30 AM
Across 15 games as a rookie in 2025, Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson recorded 446 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 98 touches. While fellow Browns rookie Quinshon Judkins (ankle) emerged as the team's clear lead rusher, Sampson established himself as a pass-catcher out of the backfield by hauling in 33 receptions for 271 yards and two scores on 40 targets. Cleveland did not make any notable additions to its running back room over the offseason and let veteran back Jerome Ford walk in free agency. As a result, Judkins and Sampson appear to be locked in as the Browns' top two rushers for 2026. As long as Judkins fully recovers from the ankle injury that ended his 2025 season and remains healthy in 2026, Sampson's production upside is limited. Still, Sampson carries dynasty handcuff appeal and could offer some standalone value in PPR-scoring formats if he continues to dominate passing-down work. Fantasy managers may want to consider attempting to buy low on Sampson ahead of his second NFL season.
