Who Should I Draft? Travis Etienne Jr., David Montgomery, Rachaad White Fantasy Football Outlooks (2024)

Travis Etienne Jr. fantasy football rankings draft sleepers running backs

When deciding between Travis Etienne Jr., David Montgomery, and Rachaad White in your fantasy football draft, it's essential to weigh each player's role, potential workload, and team dynamics.

These running backs offer different strengths, from Etienne's explosive playmaking and dual-threat ability to Montgomery's steady goal-line presence and White's breakout potential as the lead back.

Understanding how each fits into their respective offenses will help you make the best choice for your fantasy roster, whether you're looking for a high-ceiling option or a dependable contributor. Who should you draft? Let's dive in.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2024:

 

Travis Etienne Jr. Fantasy Football Outlook

Drafting Travis Etienne Jr. in fantasy football is a solid choice, especially in PPR leagues. As the primary running back for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Etienne is expected to handle a significant workload as a runner and a pass-catcher out of the backfield.

His explosive playmaking ability and involvement in the passing game give him a high ceiling, and he's likely to be a focal point in the Jaguars offense. Etienne has rushed for over 1,000 yards in each of his two seasons while also catching 58 receptions in 2023. 

If you're drafting in the second or third round, Etienne offers substantial upside, but be prepared to complement him with a reliable backup in case of injury or workload concerns. Etienne's upside is a top-5 running back finish in 2024.

 

David Montgomery Fantasy Football Outlook

Drafting David Montgomery in fantasy football can be smart, especially if you're looking for a dependable running back with a solid floor.

In his second season with the Detroit Lions, Montgomery is expected to take on a significant role in the offense, particularly in short-yardage and goal-line situations. The Lions' offensive line is one of the best in the league, which helped Montgomery reach 13 touchdowns in 2023.

Montgomery is a good value pick in the middle rounds, particularly if you're looking for a running back who can provide steady production with touchdown upside. However, remember that Jahmyr Gibbs' presence may somewhat cap his ceiling.

 

Rachaad White Fantasy Football Outlook

Drafting Rachaad White in fantasy football is a high-risk, high-reward option this year, especially if you're looking for a running back who could break out this season.

As the expected lead back for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, White has a clear path to significant touches both as a runner and receiver. He showed flashes of potential in his rookie season, particularly in the passing game. 

White finished with 990 rushing yards and nine total touchdowns but struggled on the ground as he averaged just 3.6 yards per rush. The poor offensive line doesn't help White's case, but there is no denying he will be the workhorse back this season in Tampa Bay.

 

Who Should I Draft in Fantasy Football?

When deciding between Travis Etienne Jr., David Montgomery, and Rachaad White this year in fantasy football, all signs point toward Etienne being the best selection. Even though he has the highest ADP, Etienne's ability to run and catch while being a true three-down workhorse gives him the highest upside. 

Montgomery will be a solid mid-round selection, but White is a running back fantasy managers should steer clear of due to his poor production and struggling offensive line.
