Expert takes

J.K. Dobbins
  • “Dobbins can be a volume-based play for teams desperate for a starting RB this week, but try to stay away.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 10, 2026
  • “Dobbins is coming off his best game of the season, going 18/68/1 on the ground. That is the problem. Dobbins’ best game this season was a measly 3.8 YPC on 18 attempts, and his second-best game is 6.2 half-PPR points.”

    Jordan Pullett· Oct 14, 2026
  • “Dobbins suffered leg cramps during last week’s game versus Jacksonville and is considered day-to-day. ( Mike Klis ) Coleman is dealing with a sprained ankle. Dobbins is expected to practice this week and RB RJ Harvey continues to work his way back from a hamstring injury.”

    Logan Ulrich· Sep 24, 2026
See 8 more
  • “Conclusion: Dobbins is probably close to dumpsville, and Coleman is a high-priority waiver add. He looks like he will have the backfield mostly to himself for a few weeks. Do not blow your FAAB on this guy, but be aggressive.”

    Nate Henry· Sep 22, 2026
  • “Dobbins was forced to leave Denver’s matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars after suffering a hamstring injury during the second half. He immediately headed to the medical tent and was eventually ruled questionable to return, finishing the day with 10 carries for 36 yards. The injury leaves Denver’s backfield in a difficult spot, especially with RJ Harvey already inactive due to his own hamstring issue.”

    Lawrence Iacona· Sep 21, 2026
  • “RJ Harvey and J.K. Dobbins were a complementary backfield in 2025.”

    Josh Shepardson· Aug 19, 2026
  • “Coleman makes sense as an RB4 option to begin the season and could move into RB2 territory later in the season if J.K. Dobbins misses time again.”

    FFToday· Aug 18, 2026
  • “Before he was forced to the sidelines with an injury, Dobbins averaged 16 touches and 81 yards per game, as well as five yards per attempt, subverting what many thought would be an RJ Harvey takeover year.”

    Ryan Kirksey· Jul 24, 2026
  • “Despite selecting running backs on the second day of the past two drafts, the Broncos and HC Sean Payton opted to bring back injury-prone RB J.K. Dobbins, who continues to dominate when healthy. "Dobbins was a priority, ahead of all others," Payton said.”

    Wyatt Grindley· Jun 24, 2026
  • “The team obviously values Dobbins, who has been excellent for the Broncos when on the field. Back in March, they extended him for two more years, guaranteeing him $8 million and including incentives that could push the contract's maximum value to $20 million.”

    Kyle Lesti· Jun 18, 2026
  • “Dobbins is coming back on a two-year $20 million contract.”

    Andrew Erickson· Mar 22, 2026
Jonathon Brooks
  • “Meanwhile, Brooks was relegated to a distant second, getting onto the field for just 13 plays (a meager 19% rate). It was actually AJ Dillon who saw the second-most RB snaps. Hubbard was highly efficient with his opportunities, averaging 4.9 yards per carry, serving as the primary red zone option, and hitting the paint twice (once on the ground, once through the air).”

    Nate Henry· Sep 15, 2026
  • “Brooks played only 19.1% of the snaps and was given 25% of the opportunities.”

    Wyatt Bertolone· Sep 14, 2026
  • “Brooks is the more talented player of the two, and my only major concern isn’t Hubbard’s presence, but Brooks’ injury history.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 5, 2026
See 10 more
  • “His receiving usage declined sharply when Jonathon Brooks was healthy that year, and Brooks immediately earned valuable red-zone and receiving opportunities.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Sep 4, 2026
  • “01 | Jonathon Brooks | RB, Carolina Panthers “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” Jonathon Brooks is finally healthy, folks.”

    Kyle Lesti· Aug 29, 2026
  • “Jonathon Brooks was trending towards seeing a spike in ECR even before Chuba Hubbard was sidelined with a hamstring injury. Brooks now has a clear path to seizing the starting/lead role for good, and his ECR climb has reflected that.”

    Raju Byfield· Aug 23, 2026
  • “Jonathon Brooks (RB – CAR) Going around the RB29, roughly the 78th overall pick, Brooks has been one of the fastest-rising players in fantasy over the past week given fresh news that the presumed starter ahead of him is expected to miss real time with an injury.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 22, 2026
  • “Let’s not forget that Jonathon Brooks was a second-round pick just two years ago. Injuries have completely derailed the start of his NFL career, but the talent and explosiveness that made him such a highly regarded prospect are still there.”

    Kurt Blakeway· Aug 16, 2026
  • “Jonathon Brooks looks healthy and explosive in camp, which is why he’s moving up in ADP. Fantasy managers, including myself, prefer Brooks over Chuba Hubbard due to the untapped upside.”

    Frank Ammirante· Aug 11, 2026
  • “Jonathon Brooks (RB – CAR) is finally fully healthy entering his third season after barely playing since being drafted. Camp reports describe him as fully cleared for a significant role, particularly as a receiver, a real strength of his and a weakness of the incumbent starter, who already lost his job to a journeyman back last year and posted a genuinely unique level of poor explosive-play production.”

    FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10, 2026
  • “After missing the entirety of the 2025 season rehabbing, Brooks is now deemed to be fully healthy and is competing for the starting role in the backfield opposite Chuba Hubbard . That would be the same Hubbard that already lost his starting role last year to Rico Dowdle , after his YPC cratered from the year prior.”

    Evan Tarracciano· Aug 9, 2026
  • “Of course, Jonathon Brooks has just nine carries over his entire NFL career, so this is a pretty massive swing. However, here in the ninth round, there aren’t too many players that could become the starter on their team, but Brooks is one of them. Fellow running back Chuba Hubbard was incredibly inefficient last season, and Brooks, who drew comparisons to Jamaal Charles coming out of Texas, is back and healthy.”

    Richard Janvrin· Aug 4, 2026
  • “Despite the camp hype, Jonathon Brooks is on a bottom-third projected offense and has serious injury concerns.”

    Mike Anderson· Aug 3, 2026
