Fantasy Football Player Notes

If James Conner stays healthy, it's a good bet he's going to produce. Conner played a career-high 16 games last year and produced a career-high 1,508 yards from scrimmage, along with nine touchdowns, good for an RB11 finish in half-point PPR fantasy scoring. He's being drafted as a midrange RB2, so Conner could return a profit if he can stay relatively healthy again. It's just a matter of whether you're willing to bet on the 30-year-old Conner's health.

Trey Benson didn't get a great deal of work in his rookie season with Cardinals RB James Conner playing 16 games, but when Benson finally got some meaningful work against in games against the Bears and Jets at midseason, he looked pretty good, showing off the combination of size and power that made him a Day 2 draft pick. Benson enters 2025 as a backup, but Conner has had injury issues throughout his career, so it's possible Benson will get some meaningful work in 2025.
