| 1 | Jahmyr Gibbs | RB | DET | 1.0 | Gibbs projects a 72.3% run share at age 23 with elite YPC efficiency, making the 1.01 a volume-and-talent convergence few RBs ever reach. |
| 2 | De'Von Achane | RB | MIA | 12.0 | A 20.6% target share and 104 projected targets turn Achane into a receiving back first, which is how you survive a tier-8 QB situation. |
| 3 | Jonathan Taylor | RB | IND | 7.0 | A tier-1 run offense, a 74.0% run share and 277 projected carries make Taylor the most volume-secure back in the early rounds. |
| 4 | Christian McCaffrey | RB | SF | 5.0 | CMC posted 363.6 fantasy points in 2025 and projects nearly flat in 2026, with a tier-5 QB situation the clearest ceiling tax on an otherwise elite workload. |
| 5 | Bijan Robinson | RB | ATL | 2.0 | Run share jumps from 61.6% to 77.5% with 80 targets still attached, and a 52.9% spike-week rate is the best in the class. |
| 6 | Derrick Henry | RB | BAL | 23.0 | A 96th percentile rush yards over expected at age 31, inside a tier-1 run offense, says the physical decline has not arrived yet. |
| 7 | James Cook | RB | BUF | 10.0 | Cook's 60% run share in a tier-1 run offense behind Josh Allen gives him one of the cleanest RB floors in the first round. |
| 8 | Josh Jacobs | RB | GB | 29.0 | A 78.0% run share and 289 carries buy real volume, but a 19th percentile EPA rank and 3.98 yards per carry say efficiency is not coming with it. |
| 9 | Kyren Williams | RB | LAR | 31.0 | Kyren Williams posted 249 fantasy points in 2025 but faces a tightening run share in 2026, making volume the key variable to watch. |
| 10 | Saquon Barkley | RB | PHI | 16.0 | Barkley ran 66% of the backfield work in 2025 and is projected to push that to 66.2% in 2026 with a deeper supporting cast unable to threaten his grip on the job. |
| 11 | Chase Brown | RB | CIN | 13.0 | A tier-1 QB situation feeding 231 carries and 76 targets, undercut by a run offense grading tier-8. |
| 12 | Omarion Hampton | RB | LAC | 14.0 | An 84th percentile rush yards over expected at age 22, with a full season of the role projecting 178 carries and 59 targets. |
| 13 | Ashton Jeanty | RB | LV | 8.0 | A 99th percentile run rank trapped inside a tier-8 run offense, with a 0th percentile EPA rank and a 103.4 floor. |
| 14 | Javonte Williams | RB | DAL | 28.0 | Williams posted 229 fantasy points on a 59% run share in 2025, but a projected dip to 49.6% run share is the key tension heading into 2026. |
| 15 | Kenneth Walker III | RB | KC | 17.0 | A move into a tier-2 QB situation lifts the projection to 213 points, though a tier-7 run offense and an 11.8% spike rate cap it. |
| 16 | Jeremiyah Love | RB | ARI | 26.0 | Vegas leads all rookies with a 900.5 rush-yard over/under, but a tier-7 run offense and thin QB room put a hard ceiling on the floor. |
| 17 | D'Andre Swift | RB | CHI | 52.0 | A tier-2 run offense and elite EPA efficiency make Swift viable, but a 53% run share and 103 floor leave real downside at his price. |
| 18 | Cam Skattebo | RB | NYG | 33.0 | Run share climbing from 40.4% to 47.5% inside a tier-2 run offense, though a 70.1 floor shows how unresolved the backfield still is. |
| 19 | David Montgomery | RB | HOU | 46.0 | A pre-FA trade landed Montgomery in Houston, but a tier-6 run offense and only 31% projected run share make the 179-point projection hard to trust. |
| 20 | Breece Hall | RB | NYJ | 32.0 | A 72.9% run share and 251 carries make Hall one of the largest workload projections on the board, at 190.9 points. |
| 21 | Jaylen Warren | RB | PIT | 67.0 | An 82nd percentile rush yards over expected on 181 carries, undercut by a 5.9% career spike-week rate and a tier-7 QB situation. |
| 22 | Quinshon Judkins | RB | CLE | 40.0 | A 22-year-old with a 96th-percentile run grade and 66% run share, stuck in one of the league's worst offensive situations. |
| 23 | Bucky Irving | RB | TB | 41.0 | A 1st percentile EPA rank and 10th percentile rush yards over expected sit under a 50.8% run share and 197 carries. |
| 24 | TreVeyon Henderson | RB | NE | 50.0 | Henderson posted 190.7 points as a 36% run-share back in 2025, but a loaded backfield limits his 2026 projection to 124 carries and a narrow ceiling. |
| 25 | Kyle Monangai | RB | CHI | 82.0 | An 81st percentile EPA rank inside a tier-2 run offense, though a 29.0% run share means the touches stay limited. |
| 26 | J.K. Dobbins | RB | DEN | 87.0 | A 98th percentile rush yards over expected on 212 projected carries, undercut by a 0.0% career spike-week rate. |
| 27 | Travis Etienne | RB | NO | 39.0 | Etienne projects 92 carries, 23 targets and 138.4 points in New Orleans, a clear step down in both role and environment. |
| 28 | Rhamondre Stevenson | RB | NE | 74.0 | A tier-2 QB situation and tier-2 run offense around a 37.0% run share, though a 14th percentile EPA rank is hard to look past. |
| 29 | Kenneth Gainwell | RB | TB | 99.0 | A 12.3% target share and 66 projected targets keep him relevant, though the run share falls to 23.4% on 91 carries. |
| 30 | Jadarian Price | RB | SEA | 53.0 | A rookie stepping into a 48.2% run share and 196 projected carries, with a 65.1 floor that reflects how unproven the role is. |
| 31 | Chuba Hubbard | RB | CAR | 90.0 | A projected 46.5% run share looks like starter volume, but bottom-tier efficiency and a tier-8 QB situation make Carolina's backfield a treadmill, not a launchpad. |
| 32 | Aaron Jones | RB | MIN | 117.0 | A 31-year-old back sharing a bottom-tier offense with Jordan Mason, projecting just 31.7% run share and a 49-point floor that makes him a late-round gamble at best. |
| 33 | Jordan Mason | RB | MIN | 93.0 | Mason projects for 49.6% run share and a big efficiency edge, but a tier-6 run offense and a 6.2% spike rate make the ceiling math genuinely thin. |
| 34 | Tony Pollard | RB | TEN | 72.0 | A 49% projected run share and a tier-8 QB situation make Pollard's 175-point 2025 look like a ceiling, not a floor. |
| 35 | Rachaad White | RB | WAS | 95.0 | A 94th percentile EPA rank inside a tier-1 run offense, though a 21.6% run share means only 75 projected carries. |
| 36 | Rico Dowdle | RB | PIT | 69.0 | Run share drops from 50.1% to 31.3% and carries fall to 115, turning a lead back into a committee piece. |
| 37 | RJ Harvey | RB | DEN | 66.0 | Harvey projects 63 carries, 39 targets and 123.9 points in Denver, a committee back whose receiving work carries the value. |
| 38 | Bhayshul Tuten | RB | JAX | 51.0 | A crowded backfield, a tier-5 run offense, and a 0% spike rate make Tuten a clear fade at a top-50 price. |
| 39 | Woody Marks | RB | HOU | 116.0 | Marks held a 43.9% run share in 2025, but David Montgomery's arrival shrinks that to a projected 29.5% and flattens the ceiling considerably. |
| 40 | Alvin Kamara | RB | NO | 126.0 | Run share halves from 47.1% to 24.3% at age 30, with a 4th percentile rush yards over expected underneath it. |
| 41 | Jonathan Brooks | RB | CAR | 89.0 | A 37.9% run share and a tier-8 run offense is the whole tension: the volume is real, the situation is brutal. |
| 42 | Blake Corum | RB | LAR | 97.0 | Corum's 32% projected run share and elite EPA efficiency make him a legitimate RB2 waiting for a volume bump that may never fully arrive. |
| 43 | Isaac Guerendo | RB | SF | | Elite rush yards over expected (98th percentile) but a tier-5 run offense and Christian McCaffrey ahead of him cap the upside hard. |
| 44 | Tyjae Spears | RB | TEN | 130.0 | A 12th percentile YPG rank and 11th percentile rush yards over expected, in a backfield and an offense that both grade at the bottom. |
| 45 | Kaelon Black | RB | SF | 204.0 | A rookie behind an established every-down back, with an 18.2% run share and a 235 ceiling that only opens one way. |
| 46 | Isiah Pacheco | RB | DET | 134.0 | |
| 47 | Mike Washington Jr. | RB | LV | 185.0 | A rookie behind an established lead back, with a 9.3% run share and a 210.9 ceiling that requires the depth chart to change. |
| 48 | Justice Hill | RB | BAL | 180.0 | A change-of-pace back in a tier-1 run offense, Hill's 118-point projection nearly doubles his partial-2025 actual but hinges entirely on a role that may never materialize. |
| 49 | Patrick Taylor | RB | SF | | Elite rush yards over expected (96th percentile) in a five-man backfield with a tier-5 run offense makes Taylor a high-variance dart with a paper-thin floor. |
| 50 | Dylan Sampson | RB | CLE | 162.0 | Sampson projects 50 carries, 29 targets and 101.5 points in Cleveland, a committee back whose value sits in the passing game. |
| 51 | Tyrone Tracy Jr. | RB | NYG | 123.0 | Tracy's 2025 run share gets cut from 39.6% to 34.0% with Cam Skattebo now ahead of him; the floor of 29.5 tells the real story. |
| 52 | Kimani Vidal | RB | LAC | 220.0 | A 42.8% run share in 2025 shrinks to a projected 30.0% behind Omarion Hampton, making Vidal a depth stash with a narrow path to touches. |
| 53 | Sincere McCormick | RB | SF | | An 87th percentile rush yards over expected in a backfield fronted by an established every-down back. |
| 54 | Jacory Croskey-Merritt | RB | WAS | 106.0 | A 44.7% run share on the league's top-graded run offense, Croskey-Merritt projects 155 carries and 117.0 points as the lead back in Washington. |
| 55 | Michael Carter | RB | TEN | | Eagles backup at 31% run share. Tier-8 run-O context, Barkley dominates — pure handcuff with no weekly relevance unless Barkley misses extended time. |
| 56 | Audric Estim<U+00E9> | RB | NO | | |
| 57 | Bam Knight | RB | ARI | | Knight projects 34 targets and 89.8 points in Arizona as a pass-catching specialist with no projected rushing role. |
| 58 | Tank Bigsby | RB | PHI | 157.0 | Eagles backup at 14% run share. Tier-5 run-O with Barkley dominating lead — handcuff floor only with no weekly path unless Barkley misses extended time. |
| 59 | Samaje Perine | RB | CIN | 285.0 | Bengals deep backup. Tier-7 run-O with Brown dominating — pure depth play with no projected weekly relevance. |
| 60 | Sean Tucker | RB | TB | 196.0 | Buccaneers backup at 18% run share. Tier-6 run-O with Irving dominating — pure handcuff with no path to weekly relevance unless Irving misses time. |
| 61 | Adam Randall | RB | BAL | 307.0 | A rookie behind an established lead back, but in a tier-1 run offense with a tier-1 QB situation and a 208 ceiling. |
| 62 | Jaylen Wright | RB | MIA | 239.0 | |
| 63 | Ty Johnson | RB | BUF | 214.0 | Bills pass-down back at 13% run share. Tier-1 run-O with Allen; PPR-only floor through receiving role — flex appeal but no weekly RB2 path. |
| 64 | Brashard Smith | RB | KC | | |
| 65 | Chris Rodriguez Jr. | RB | JAX | 138.0 | A 48.8% run share and 178 carries in Jacksonville give Rodriguez 99.3 points, pure volume with no receiving support. |
| 66 | Raheim Sanders | RB | CLE | | |
| 67 | Devin Singletary | RB | NYG | 250.0 | |
| 68 | Jonah Coleman | RB | DEN | 147.0 | A fourth-round rookie behind an established Denver backfield, Coleman projects 33 carries and 88.3 points, almost entirely on upside. |
| 69 | Tyler Allgeier | RB | ARI | 135.0 | Cardinals backup at 28% run share. Tier-3 run-O is decent but Conner / rookie Love share — pure handcuff/flex value with no weekly path. |
| 70 | Brian Robinson | RB | ATL | 150.0 | Atlanta workhorse with 73% run share plus a meaningful 16% target share. Elite .59 spike rate at 24, coming off a full RB1 season. Weak QB tier caps ceiling slightly, volume still dominates. |
| 71 | Zach Charbonnet | RB | SEA | 124.0 | Seahawks change-of-pace back, 55% run share splitting with Walker. Tier-3 run-O is decent; pass-game role gives a PPR-stable floor with low weekly ceiling. |
| 72 | Seth McGowan | RB | IND | 310.0 | A rookie backing up an entrenched every-down back, but doing it inside a run offense that grades tier-1. |
| 73 | Jaydon Blue | RB | DAL | 212.0 | |
| 74 | Trey Benson | RB | ARI | 308.0 | Cardinals committee back at 32% run share. Tier-8 run-O is rough but pass-down work adds PPR floor; flex upside if Conner ages or misses time. |
| 75 | Jeremy McNichols | RB | WAS | | |
| 76 | Emanuel Wilson | RB | SEA | 252.0 | |
| 77 | Ollie Gordon II | RB | MIA | 303.0 | |
| 78 | Keaton Mitchell | RB | LAC | 140.0 | Mitchell projects 100.5 points in Los Angeles on a projection built from almost no recent usage, making him the board's purest speculation. |
| 79 | Jam Miller | RB | NE | | |
| 80 | Jawhar Jordan | RB | HOU | | Texans backup rookie at 23% run share. Tier-7 run-O is rough — committee floor only with no projected weekly path behind Mixon/Montgomery. |
| 81 | Jaret Patterson | RB | LAC | | |
| 82 | Carson Steele | RB | PHI | | |
| 83 | Malik Davis | RB | DAL | | Cowboys backup at 17% run share. Tier-3 run-O with Dak. Williams dominates lead — handcuff-only with no projected weekly relevance. |
| 84 | Emmett Johnson | RB | KC | 191.0 | A fifth-round rookie in Kansas City, Johnson projects 43 carries and 66.9 points, with a ceiling that only exists if the room clears. |
| 85 | Zavier Scott | RB | MIN | | |
| 86 | Chris Brooks | RB | GB | 289.0 | |
| 87 | Eli Heidenreich | RB | PIT | | |
| 88 | Ray Davis | RB | BUF | 227.0 | |
| 89 | Emari Demercado | RB | KC | 306.0 | Chiefs deep backup at 15% run share. Tier-8 run-O context; depth-only ranking with no projected path to weekly relevance behind Pacheco/Walker/Hunt. |
| 90 | Kaytron Allen | RB | WAS | 219.0 | A sixth-round rookie in Washington, Allen projects 33 carries and 64.0 points behind the league's best-graded run blocking. |
| 91 | Hunter Luepke | RB | DAL | | |
| 92 | Ameer Abdullah | RB | JAX | | |
| 93 | Isaiah Davis | RB | NYJ | 302.0 | |
| 94 | Pierre Strong | RB | GB | | |
| 95 | Nicholas Singleton | RB | TEN | 192.0 | A fifth-round rookie with a 2.1% projected run share on a tier-8 run offense, Singleton is a deep flier banking entirely on attrition above him. |
| 96 | Jaleel McLaughlin | RB | DEN | | |
| 97 | Kendre Miller | RB | NO | | |
| 98 | Nate Carter | RB | ATL | | |
| 99 | DJ Giddens | RB | IND | 295.0 | |
| 100 | Kyle Juszczyk | RB | SF | | |
| 101 | Terrell Jennings | RB | NE | | Patriots deep backup at 14% run share. Tier-1 (projected) offense doesn't help when role is minimal — depth-only ranking based on roster math. |
| 102 | Rasheen Ali | RB | BAL | | |
| 103 | Eric Gray | RB | NYG | | |
| 104 | Will Shipley | RB | PHI | | |

| 107 | Khalil Herbert | RB | SF | | |
| 108 | Ronnie Rivers | RB | LAR | | |
| 109 | Brittain Brown | RB | CHI | | |
| 110 | Braelon Allen | RB | NYJ | 189.0 | A 20-year-old backup coming off a partial 2025 season, in a backfield and offense that both grade near the bottom. |
| 111 | British Brooks | RB | HOU | | |
| 112 | LeQuint Allen Jr. | RB | JAX | 240.0 | |
| 113 | Roschon Johnson | RB | CHI | | |
| 114 | Trevor Etienne | RB | CAR | | Saints' new lead back at 34% run share in a rebuilt offense with tier-4 run blocking. Lower share is the cap, but pass-game role plus 7.5% target rate keeps the floor. |
| 115 | Jerome Ford | RB | WAS | 288.0 | |
| 116 | Kene Nwangwu | RB | NYJ | | |
| 117 | Jacob Saylors | RB | DET | | |
| 118 | Dameon Pierce | RB | PHI | | A partial 2025 season wiped his actual numbers, but a 100th-percentile rush yards over expected mark and a deep Eagle backfield make Pierce a high-variance dart in best ball. |
| 119 | AJ Dillon | RB | CAR | | |
| 120 | Tahj Brooks | RB | CIN | | |
| 121 | Kendall Milton | RB | CIN | | |
| 122 | Josh Williams | RB | TB | | Cowboys' lead back at 55% run share in tier-1 offense with Dak. ADP near pick 100 is dramatically late given the volume + game-script + goal-line monopoly we project. |
| 123 | Patrick Ricard | RB | NYG | | |

| 141 | DeeJay Dallas | RB | JAX | | |
| 142 | Travis Homer | RB | PIT | | |
| 143 | Tyler Goodson | RB | ATL | | A 77th percentile EPA rank behind one of the league's most entrenched every-down backs, with a 176.4 ceiling that needs attrition. |
