Top 5 Fantasy RB Final Rankings

Jahmyr Gibbs is as talented as any running back in today's game, with a supeior offensive line, and entering the prime of his career. He has overtaken David Montogomery as the lead back to start games off the rip which will increase his usage. The only downside which can hinder his game is losing offensive coordiantor Ben Johnson to the Bears. Nonetheless, all signs point to yet another stellar season and a chance to repat as the #1 scoring runningback.

bijan-robinson

The second highest rated player, (behind Ja'Marr Chase) is coming into the season as hot as anyone in the position. Bijan only 23, is young talented, and is getting most likely improved quarterback play from Michael Penix in year 2. Bijan and Jahmyr Gibbs have the higest ceilings with no injury history to look at. Primed for the best year of his career and in improved offense he should have a monster year. Although he did just look one of his offensive lineman for the season.

saquon-barkely

Barkley had the best season for runningbacks last year. taking the most carries while gaining the most yards. This year he has all the weapons and same offense to continue his dominance. The only question is will he slow down? Barkely 28 is slightly more prone to injuries given his age and usage last year. However, Barkley rounds out the top 3 of elite runningbacks in this years draft as we think there is a steep dropoff after him.

ashton-jeanty

The young blood of the group and a force to be reckoned with. Jeanty was a beast in college and there is no reason for that to not continue on the next level. A "Derrick Henry" type players who always falls forward. Ashton Jeanty should put up a nice season with his talent and an upgraded offense that should run through him in a run-heavy scheme.

jonathon taylor

Taylor’s career has been up and down due to injuries and poor quarterback play. However, this year feels different, as he appears to be fully healthy and his quarterback is no longer Anthony Richardson. Daniel Jones isn’t a world-beater, but he should still provide more stability, even if it limits Taylor’s touchdown upside. The opportunity will be there for him as the workhorse, and that more consistent presence gives him a chance to return to the form that made him the #1 ranked running back in fantasy back in 2022.
