Jaylen Warren is currently going in the late 6th round of best ball drafts and early 7th round of PPR leagues on Sleeper (and even later on ESPN.)
He's an absolute STEAL at those costs. Why?
He's the new Kenneth Gainwell. 👀
Jaylen Warren: Elite Pass Blocker
Jaylen Warren was graded 10th overall by PFF (out of 90) in pass blocking, a critical component of playing passing downs in 42 year old Aaron Rodgers' offense.
Newcomer Rico Dowdle? He graded 80th out of 90.
Jaylen Warren is BY FAR the best bet in Pittsburgh's backfield to play alongside Rodgers on passing downs, and THAT should have fantasy managers drooling. 🤤
Aaron Rodgers loves passing to running backs
Remember that Rodgers peppered Gainwell with 6.3 (!) targets per game over the final 9 games last season, a stretch where Gainwell averaged 16.7 PPR points and scored 16+ points in 6 of those 9 contests (not to mention 21+ in 3 of them.)
For context, Chase Brown finished as fantasy's RB7 overall last year and averaged 16.6 PPR points per game. Derrick Henry was RB8 with 16.4 PPR points per game.
But Jaylen Warren? He's currently being drafted as fantasy's RB27 near the round 6-7 turn. (Cue kids everywhere.)
Do not leave your 2026 fantasy football draft without Jaylen Warren at his current cost. 💰
