Jeremiyah Love glides across the field. He has instant and easy elite acceleration. Love will monetarily pause after receiving a handoff with some runs before exploding upfield. He has the burst to get away with it. Love also has backbreaking home run speed with the ability to house any carry or screen. Love has an amazing combination of vision, patience, contact balance, and power with his frame. Love has no issues letting blocks set up in front of him before weaving through traffic. With his frame, Love flashes impressive finishing power with runs and interior rushing skill. He won't be a player that is pulled at the goalline for a bruising power option. He can string together tackle-breaking moves without losing speed with impressive fluidity. Love is a spin move, samurai deploying the move to churn out a few extra yards. He's made plenty of defenders look silly in the process. His creativity at the second-level can be jaw-dropping with jump cuts, spin moves, and some insane hurdles. Love should be a passing game weapon from Day 1 in the NFL. Since 2024, he has aligned in the slot or out wide with 10.6-16.6% of his snaps. He was tasked with wheels and angle routes in addition to the usual flats and dumpoffs. Love can also align in the slot or on the perimeter. His explosive short-area agility allows him to run routes like a true wide receiver. Love's pass pro still needs some refinement. He has the play strength and base to be a trusted pass pro option from the jump in the NFL. With many reps, he'll physically push a defender off course or out of the play path, but he also needs to work on anchoring down or latching onto a defender and driving them into the dirt. His technique will improve with more coaching in the NFL, but he has the skills to become one of the league's best in this area. Since 2024, he has amassed 118 pass blocking snaps (per PFF), allowing zero sacks or quarterback hits and only four pressures. Dynasty Outlook: Jeremiah Love is headed to Arizona to be their unquestioned bell cow back. Yes, I expect Tyler Allgeier and James Conner to play a role in this backfield. I also wouldn't rule out a trade for James Conner prior to Week 1. Allgeier could be a thorn in Love's side in his rookie season, which hurts his absolute ceiling (much like he did in Atlanta), but Love will still lead the way for the Cards' backfield. Trey Benson hope was extinguished with the selection of Love, though. Don't overthink this, people. Love remains the CLEAR 1.01 in every rookie draft format and a top-five dynasty back. Arizona will upgrade its quarterback situation at some point. With Love and the other skill players on this roster, that quarterback will be in a good spot to succeed.

Jeremiyah Love selected No. 3 by Arizona Cardinals

The Arizona Cardinals have selected RB Jeremiyah Love with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

There were questions for the past couple of weeks as to if Arizona would potentially trade back and if they don't, whether they address their defense or grab Love. This will be an interesting backfield from a fantasy football perspective if they end up keeping James Conner. They also signed Tyler Allgeier in free agency. This will be a backfield to continue to monitor the rest of the offseason to see if any other moves are made in that their backfield. Love should play a big immediate role either way.
