Running Back · Arizona Cardinals
Injury status: Questionable · FootHandled 10% of team RB opportunities, giving him a true lead-back workload.
Averaged 13.3 touches per game, one of the clearest volume profiles in this range.
Owned 11% of team inside-10 RB touches, keeping him attached to TD chances.
Added a 10% target share and a 0.13 WOPR, giving him more than just rushing value.
Projects as RB63 in PPG while being drafted as RB51.
Enters the season at age 31 coming off 40 touches, so the workload that creates the upside also creates risk.
Has missed 15 games over the last two seasons, making the volume less bankable.
Finished at -6.1 rush yards over expected per game, suggesting the workload did more work than the efficiency.
Trey Benson played 48% of snaps in the same backfield, so the role is not uncontested.
Team added Tyler Allgeier, creating risk that last season's touch share does not repeat.
Going ahead of our number. The field drafts him RB51; we have him RB63 — 12 spots earlier than we'd take him.
