STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Love's top-3 draft pedigree and elite profile project top-12 RB rookie production.

Love was selected third overall in April's draft, a data point supported by recent history: each of the past nine running backs drafted in the top 12 finished top 12 in fantasy points at the position as a rookie, averaging 289.1 touches, 1,456 scrimmage yards, 9.0 TDs and 17.3 fantasy PPG (which would have ranked seventh among RBs in 2025). Love has elite speed, a three-down skill set and was extremely efficient at Notre Dame, positioning him for a big workload and huge fantasy production right out of the gate.
