Dynasty Rookie Draft Picks to Target
The Giants added Cam Skattebo to the backfield via the fourth round of the NFL Draft. He should be considered the early favorite to be the team’s workhorse after Tyrone Tracy‘s inconsistent rookie season and the team shelving any thought of Devin Singletary as their leading back. Skattebo was a volume monster during his final season in college and a true three-down back. He ranked 21st in yards after contact per attempt and 11th in elusive rating while also sitting inside the top ten in receiving grade and yards per route run (per PFF). It could take some time for Skattebo to wrestle 60-65% of the snaps away from the other players in this backfield, but it does feel like the eventual reality. Skattebo is a strong RB3/flex who could easily vault into an every-week top 15 running back.

Blue fell to the fifth round of the NFL Draft as he was swimming in a ridiculously deep running back draft class. The former Longhorn displayed some three-down big play ability in his final collegiate season. He ranked 26th in elusive rating, 35th in yards after contact per attempt, and 25th in yards per route run (per PFF). It’s not hard to envision Blue having a role in the backfield immediately in Week 1, considering the lackluster players surrounding him on the Dallas Cowboys’ depth chart. Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders‘ best football looks to be behind them. Blue could be the passing down back from Day 1 with an avenue to become the team’s lead back quickly.

Damien Martinez didn’t get taken until the seventh round of this year’s draft, and he joins a crowded Seattle backfield that features Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet. Still, Martinez is a n interesting RB prospect. He was productive in all three of his college seasons, the first two at Oregon State, the last one at Miami. Martinez is remarkably shifty. He has surprising speed and lateral agility, and watching him maneuver through traffic is fun. Martinez also has the size and power to run through arm tackles. He might be worth a late-round flyer in rookie drafts.
