Yahoo Fantasy Football on Jacory Croskey-Merritt
From the article
And who led the league in yards per carry on those concepts? You guessed it, Croskey-Merritt, at 7.6 yards a pop. Of course, he has to battle Rachaad White. But as we have seen, White is not a very efficient runner and likely would cede duties to Bill in scoring positions.
STACKED’s take
Croskey-Merritt's 7.6 YPC on outside zone and scheme fit support breakout in post-hype season.
Jacory Croskey-Merritt is a post-hype season candidate going later in drafts this year than last, supported by strong outside zone metrics. Commanders starting tackle Josh Conerly noted the team plans to lean into outside and wide zone run concepts more often in 2026. Washington ranked best in the NFL in outside zone last year at 6.1 yards per carry, and Croskey-Merritt led the league in yards per carry on those concepts at 7.6 yards. While he must battle Rachaad White for touches, White is not an efficient runner and would likely cede duties to Croskey-Merritt in scoring positions. The second-year back has also drawn positive reviews for his pass-catching ability from beat writers this offseason.
