| Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | 5/2: Was the RB4 as a true bellcow, and now Ronald Jones is gone, paving even more potential volume. HOWEVER - Rookie Rachaad White is lauded for his receiving skills & Fournette's 84 tgts were a major reason for his blow-up -- the RB Coach also berated Lenny as a pass-catcher, they take the top 2022 pass-catching RB... huge downgrade IMO + he's reportedly out of shape, which is always a concern with Lenny | Sneaky benefactor of Adams leaving - has averaged nearly 26 FPs per game without Adams compared to 16 with |
| Brandon Funston The Athletic | Has 4 seasons of 15+ PPR FPPG in past 5 years - only Alvin Kamara has more among RBs in that span | 6th-most catches among RBs over past 3 seasons (148), and is in line for career-high receptions to help fill void left by Davante Adams' departure |
| Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | It's been a long journey for Leonard Fournette from his last days as "Fat Lenny" with the Jacksonville Jaguars earning the moniker "Lombardi Lenny" due to his brilliant play for Tampa Bay the last year and a half. He impressed the Buccaneers' front office - and a certain No. 12 quarterback - enough to earn a fat three-year deal with his old team worth $21 million up to $24 million. There's zero doubt with his performance and contract that he will be the entrenched clear-cut starter for the Bucs, and that's exactly the desired outcome for fantasy football. Fournette ranked fifth in fantasy points and fourth in expected fantasy points per game before his Week 15 injury, leading all running in receptions (62). Upon his return to the lineup for the Buccaneers' playoff matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, Fournette reclaimed bell-cow duties, playing 86% of Tampa Bay's offensive snaps to go with 22 touches for 107 yards from scrimmage. With an all-encompassing skill set at just 27 years old, Fournette possesses easy top-10 running back fantasy appeal. He slides inside my early 2022 running back rankings as RB8 because a fantasy RB1 is exactly what he has been in the Tom Brady-led offense. | Aaron Jones is an absolute target and receptions monster when Davante Adams has missed time in the past. Without Green Bay's No. 1 WR, Jones has averaged close to 4.5 catches, 6 targets, 48.5 receiving yards and 23 PPR points per game. Hard to ignore the Packers RB1 as a dynamite selection in Round 2 with multiple top-5 finishes on his resume. |
| Derek Brown FantasyPros | Workhorse Uncle Lenn is back to trigger the haters in 2022. In Weeks 4-14, Leonard Fournette played less than 61% of the team's snaps in only two games. Over that stretch, he averaged 19.7 touches and 103 total yards per game as the RB5 in fantasy. Fournette was also fantastic in the passing game. In that sample, he led all running backs in targets (63) and was fourth in receiving yards (344). Rachaad White might be his heir apparent, but Tampa Bay has Super Bowl aspirations, and it's difficult to envision Tom Brady trusting a rookie in the backfield to protect him. | Aaron Jones finished last season as the RB11 in fantasy points per game despite ceding more work to A.J. Dillon as the year moved along. In Weeks 14-17, Jones saw 38 carries, three red zone opportunities, and ran 76 routes. In that same sample of games, Dillon gobbled up 45 carries with 13 red zone looks and 54 routes run. With Davante Adams gone, Jones could save his fantasy scoring with a heavier target load. Since 2019 in the seven games Jones has played without Adams on the field, he's seen his targets bump from 3.9 per game to 6.7. His receiving yardage also increased from 21.6 to 55.4 per game. While he might not have top 3-5 upside anymore if Dillon remains involved, Jones could still be a low-end RB1 or high-end RB2. |
| Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Fournette had a breakout year in Tampa Bay with 1,266 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns before suffering a hamstring injury and missing the final two games of the fantasy season. Fournette just signed a new contract with Tampa Bay and if he is used the same way, he should be a RB2 with RB1 upside. | Jones lost some of his fantasy value with the emergence of A.J. Dillon, but Jones also had 1,190 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns in the fantasy season. Jones figures to be the focal point of their offense with Davante Adams no longer in the mix. |
