STACKED’s take
Croskey-Merritt's playoff production and scheme fit make him a ninth-round steal.
Croskey-Merritt is still going off the board in the ninth round or later despite being an NFL starting running back. He was the RB10 in fppg during the fantasy playoffs, topping 95 yards on two occasions and scoring four touchdowns over that stretch. Beat writers have made clear he answered the challenge from coaches to step up in the passing game and will get the first shot at leading the Commanders backfield. The 25-year-old is a good fit in new offensive coordinator David Blough's zone-run scheme; among 65 qualified backs last year, he finished eighth in zone yards per carry and 13th in success rate on zone runs. The Commanders RBs have the sixth-easiest fantasy schedule. Justin Boone sees him as an explosive ball carrier capable of week-winning performances.
