Three running backs to consider trading for in dynasty fantasy football

Summary

As the 2026 NFL season approaches, fantasy managers are advised to consider trading for running backs who may see rising value. Cam Skattebo of the New York Giants, currently ranked RB17, showed promise last season despite injury issues, averaging 16 PPG in eight games. Tony Pollard, ranked RB41, has had consistent yardage with over 1,000 rushing yards across four seasons, and could benefit from improved offensive support. Jordan Mason, ranked RB45, may step into a starting role, particularly with Aaron Jones aging, which could improve his scoring potential. Managers are encouraged to explore these options before the season begins.
