FAIRpriced about rightThe Scout· Talent & projection

Elite talent, but you're paying full price.

The model's RB2 at roughly 19.5 projected PPG is fair, not a bargain. His 2025 line — 1,223 rushing yards, 77 catches, 13 rushing scores — is a Round 1 profile, and Round 1 is exactly where he goes. Draft him there confidently; just don't expect a discount.
