Bigsby's 20% 10-yard carry rate doubles Barkley's; elite RB2 value

Bigsby had just 63 carries last year but 13 of them—over 20 percent—went for at least 10 yards, compared to Saquon Barkley's 10-yard gains on 28 of 280 carries (exactly 10 percent). This efficiency metric suggests Bigsby has elite-level explosiveness in limited opportunities. The source notes that while nobody believes Bigsby should be RB1, he's "one heck of a RB2" and the Eagles acquired him for just a 5th-round pick from Jacksonville.
