Video: Am I Really Starting This Guy? (Week 8 RB Rankings)
Dylan Samson actually played 47% of the offensive snaps for the Cleveland Browns... he was the 2024 SEC offensive player of the year, but he is mostly a passing down back. However, he's very competent at that job... Dylan Samson I've ranked as my running back 36. I do expect him to be the primary passing down back for the rest of the season for the Browns. And I expect his role to basically be, yeah, four or five rushes, three to five targets in a given week.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Ranked 36th; primary passing-down back; 4-5 rushes, 3-5 targets weekly.

Ranked RB36. Played 47% of offensive snaps for Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Source describes Samson as "a little bit more of a dancer" and notes he was 2024 SEC offensive player of the year, but is "mostly a passing down back." Source credits Samson as "very competent" at that job, more so than other backup options like Raheem Sanders or Jul Mclaclin. Source expects him to be primary passing-down back for rest of season for Browns with projected role of four to five rushes and three to five targets per week; touchdown-dependent for fantasy value.
