The Lions Dump D’Andre Swift in Philadelphia and Launch Multiple Fantasy Running Backs
Shawn Siegele
April 29, 2023
The Lions traded D’Andre Swift to the Philadelphia Eagles for a meaningless move in Round 7 and a fourth-round pick a million years from now (or 2025). Even for a one-year rental that feels a bit . . . light. At one point late last season, Jerry Jones was criticizing the Eagles for going all-in on the 2022 season. This was one of the weirder…...
The Discount Breece Hall Goes to New York to be the Handcuff to the Actual Breece Hall? Heartbreaking for Abanikanda
Shawn Siegele
April 29, 2023
Israel Abanikanda goes to the New York Jets with the 143rd pick in the 2023 NFL draft. Even if the Breece Hall injury provides a small window at the beginning of the season, this is a disaster for Abanikanda. Well, this one hurts. Abanikanda was pretty easily the most exciting running back in this draft not named Bijan Robinson or Jahmyr Gibbs. You don’t normally…...

There’s more than one way to be a good NFL running back. That’s the fun part of evaluating prospects. It’s not…...

After Adding D’Onta Foreman, the Bears Have a Fantasy Backfield That’s Dangerous in More Ways Than One
Shawn Siegele
March 17, 2023
The Chicago Bears have signed D’Onta Foreman to a one-year, $3 million contract. He’ll be paired with 2022 breakout Khalil Herbert to form a cheap and explosive backfield. Fresh off of their fleecing of the Carolina Panthers in the trade market, the Bears may have gotten the better of them at RB as well. While Miles Sanders and Chuba Hubbard should form a good lighting-and-lightning…...
Superflex Sleeper? Baker Mayfield Signs With Tampa to the Chagrin of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin
Shawn Siegele
March 15, 2023
The Tampa Buccaneers have reportedly signed Baker Mayfield to a one-year $8.5 million contract with $4.5 million guaranteed. He’ll likely compete with Kyle Trask to be the starting quarterback as Tampa sets themselves up for an early pick in 2024. The Cleveland Browns selected Mayfield No. 1 overall in the 2018 draft but eventually soured on him after an injury-plagued 2021 season. They traded him…...

Shawn Siegele
March 14, 2023
The Denver Broncos have reportedly signed Samaje Perine to a two-year, $7.5 million contract.

Few backs were mentioned more frequently than Samaje Perine on Stealing Bananas last year. The Bengals backup also became a weekly mention in the Zero RB Watch List, as Joe…...

Update: The Dolphins have reportedly also re-signed Jeff Wilson to a two-year contract with a maximum value of $8.2 million. My reaction has Mostert in the foreground but discusses the important context with Wilson throughout. Due to a mix…...
