From the episode

Braylon Allen, I think, is going to be a top 20-ish running back as long as Brees Hall is out... Braylon Allen will get eight to ten touches a game... they do like Braylon Allen at the goal line.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Allen RB23 this week; top 20 back while Hall out, goal-line role keeps value.

Matthew Berry ranks Braylon Allen at running back 23 this week and projects him as a top 20-ish running back as long as Breece Hall is out; Berry notes Allen will get 8-10 touches per game even when Hall returns and is favored at the goal line, making him a better option than Marshawn Lloyd long-term despite committee status.
