BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~65 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~84
ANALYSIS: If you're looking to try a Zero-RB strategy in 2022, Edmonds needs to be on your draft board. He's another running back who fits the more prototypical Zero-RB target we want to target because of his role in the passing game.
The Dolphins made Edmonds a priority this offseason and while they may have also signed Raheem Mostert and Sony Michel, Edmonds received significantly more money and guaranteed money, which should be a sign of how they feel about him compared to the other running backs on their roster.
He was incredibly effective in the passing game last season. He had a 13.4% target share, which ranked seventh among running backs, and averaged 1.65 yards per route run, which ranked ninth. He's never going to be a big touchdown guy with his 205-pound frame, but Edmonds is going to remain highly involved in the passing game.
Not only that, but he was incredibly efficient with his opportunities. He averaged 5.7 yards per touch, which ranked seventh among running backs, according to PlayerProfiler. We also cannot ignore Moster's injury history, which gives Edmonds plenty of upside in the event he's unable to play 17-games.
