Brian Robinson Jr. 2024 Outlook: Buy On Perceived Value Hit
6 months agoWashington Commanders' running back Brian Robinson Jr. showed improvement as a pass catcher in year two of his career despite the presence of Antonio Gibson. Despite playing in three more games than he did as a rookie, Robinson actually saw less rushing attempts as his passing game usage spiked for a career-high 36 catches for 368 yards and four touchdowns. That could reverse course in Robinson's third season, as the Commanders added a capable veteran pass-catching back in Austin Ekeler along with a rushing quarterback in Jayden Daniels. That being said, Ekeler's efficiency saw a significant hit in 2023. His addition to the team will once again make Robinson a strong candidate to have a solid return on investment much like in 2023 when Gibson's presence allowed Robinson to be priced much lower than his low-end RB2 finish. Expect the Alabama product to again carry most of the early downs, and even see some passing down usage despite the presence of Ekeler.
