STACKED’s take

Positive signalBust

Authors' bust pick (RB27 ADP); was RB17 last year and underrated; Pittsburgh signed Rico Dowdle in free agency with beat reporters saying Dowdle has inside track to lead role; Mike McCarthy history of riding one back (~67% touches to main guy). Community pushback: Warren is better real-football RB than Dowdle (pass protection, running between numbers, ball security); questions whether McCarthy sticks with worse player out of stubbornness. Backfield ambiguity remains.
