BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 8% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jaylen Warren’s astronomical rise from irrelevance to coveted contingency option was launched during training camp and the preseason when Warren catapulted beyond Benny Snell Jr. and Anthony McFarland Jr. to emerge as the Steelers’ RB2. He has been efficient with his workload, while accumulating 94 rushing yards with his 19 carries, and averaging 4.8 per attempt. He also accumulated season-highs in snap share (51%) targets (five) and receiving yards (39) in Week 5.
His performances this season should also bolster confidence that he will not be relinquishing those responsibilities anytime soon. His value would also ignite if Najee Harris would be sidelined at any point this season.
Harris accumulated 307 carries and 1,200 rushing yards during 2021 while averaging 18.1 attempts/70.6 yards per game. He has not matched that level of usage entering Week 6 (222 yards/44.4 per game), (69 attempts/13.8 per game). However, Warren would still be entrusted with a similar workload during any absence by Harris this season.
If Harris is on your roster, you can avoid a potential dilemma by securing Warren this week. Any other managers can also prioritize him for the same reason, as Warren would operate as a high-end RB2 if he ascends into responsibilities as Pittsburgh’s lead back.
