BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~140 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~154
ANALYSIS: McKissic was so close to being a Buffalo Bill in 2022, but the Washington Commanders plucked him right from the hands of Bills general manager Brandon Beane. It's clear they value McKissic's contributions on the football field or they would have just let him walk in free agency.
Being back with the Commanders is a positive for his fantasy value, given he's finished as the RB32 and RB28 in back-to-back seasons in PPR formats. McKissic's best asset is his ability as a pass-catcher. The Commanders use him on most third downs, in the two-minute drill, and when trailing by multiple scores in the second half of games. Over the last two seasons, he's averaged six targets and 4.9 rush attempts per game.
The expected value of a target in PPR formats is almost a whole point more than a rush attempt (1.6 vs. 0.6). McKissic will not only have solid standalone fantasy value in a complementary role alongside Antonio Gibson, but he'll give you spike weeks if Gibson is forced to miss any time.
In three games without Gibson the last two seasons, McKissic averaged 18 PPR fantasy points per game (and saw 10 targets in two of those three games). With Washington's win total around just eight, he should be busy regardless of whether Gibson misses any games. Prioritize McKissic as a highly valuable backup in PPR formats this season.
