Running Back: Saquon Barkley - PHI (RB5)
There is no doubt that Saquon Barkley is one of the elite talents at the running back position in the sport. However, there are concerns about his ceiling at the goal line. We saw it plenty of times with D'Andre Swift last season, where the tush push vultured loads of touchdowns from their lead back. Jalen Hurts scored 11 of his 15 rushing touchdowns in 2023 from the one-yard line. If you give just eight of those to Swift, he goes from finishing at RB23 last season to finishing at RB8! As long as the tush push is around, the ceiling at the running back position in Philadelphia will have a severe cap. And while this line is still loaded with talent, their future Hall of Fame center in Jason Kelce is gone. They are replacing him with Cam Jurgens, who has logged just 45 career snaps at center. There are far too many red flags here for us to consider Barkley at his current ADP.
