Now 31, James Conner heads into training camp as the likely RB3 on the Arizona depth chart... Conner is overqualified as an RB3 and the Cardinals are clearly overcrowded at the position... he's a prime candidate to get traded to another team... If Conner could just escape Arizona then he would instantly become a coveted handcuff-type target at running back. Not many power backs offer the pass-catching ability Conner does.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Conner at RB54 is a trade candidate; elite handcuff value if he escapes Arizona.

James Conner at RB54 ADP is a value sleeper if he gets traded away from Arizona, where he's buried as an RB3 behind Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier. At age 31, Conner is overqualified for a backup role and is a prime trade candidate, especially to teams weak at running back (Packers, Lions, Texans, Colts, Raiders). The source notes Conner's combination of power-back ability and pass-catching skills makes him a coveted handcuff target if he lands on a team with snaps available, offering goal-line and target upside.
