It High draft capital and financial commitments make Jeremiyah Love, who posted a 6.9 College YPC, and Tyler Allgeier roster locks. James Conner and Trey Benson represent realistic trade candidates following injury-riddled campaigns, though Conner’s has the efficiency edge.

Bottom line: NFL teams rarely roster four running backs who do not contribute to special teams. This report was likely planted as a signal to other NFL teams that Conner and Benson are valuable assets and available.
