STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Bigsby averages 15.4 PPR in 14+ touch games; RB2 upside if Barkley injured.

Bigsby combines explosive rushing ability, efficiency and a nose for the end zone. At 210 pounds, he is difficult to bring down and excels at creating yards after contact. Bigsby also averaged an impressive 4.8 yards per carry last season and gets to run behind an Eagles O-line returning all five starters. He has received at least 14 touches in a game seven times in his career, averaging 15.4 fantasy points in those contests. Saquon Barkley has 21.7 touches per game as an Eagle, and Bigsby would inherit a significant portion of that workload if Barkley misses time. He offers limited stand-alone value but is worth targeting in the double-digit rounds and would move firmly onto the RB2 radar if Barkley sustained a major injury.
