Tony Pollard owns two of them... the two sitting side-by-side in down-to-down efficiency (40.0% and 39.3%) and adj. YAC per att. (3.42 and 3.36) is something of a surprise... For fantasy managers looking to make a push, acquiring Pollard now before a potential trade (the Vikings come to mind) will pay off down the road.

Pollard's elite efficiency metrics rival Taylor's; acquire before potential trade deadline move.

Pollard is positioned as a potential trade candidate with the Titans in sell mode after their sixth loss. He owns two of just five instances of an RB racking up 100+ rushing yards against Cleveland since the start of 2025, and is one of just three to find the end zone multiple times against them. Despite playing on an offense averaging the fewest points per game, Pollard ranks 11th in rushing success rate (39.3%), 11th in adjusted yards after contact per attempt (3.42), and 11th in forced missed tackle rate (16.1%). His down-to-down efficiency (39.3%) sits nearly even with Jonathan Taylor (40.0%), and he has just two fewer explosive runs than Taylor despite inferior offensive line support (Titans rank 30th in pass-block win rate). The source recommends acquiring Pollard before a potential trade (Vikings mentioned as possibility) as his next matchup against Cincinnati (8th in PPR PPG allowed to RBs, 6th-highest explosive rushing rate) could showcase his value.
