STACKED’s take
Warren's superior pass-blocking and receiving skills make him the safer Steelers RB at similar ADP.
Warren is being selected as the RB30 and 80th player overall, only about a half-round difference from Rico Dowdle (RB32, 86th overall). Warren has averaged 2.6 receptions per game and 1.41 yards per route run during his career, compared with 1.4 receptions and 1.05 yards per route run for Dowdle. Warren earned a strong 72.0 PFF pass-blocking grade last season, while Dowdle received a poor 24.6 grade. Steelers running backs drew 25.4% of the team's targets last season, the NFL's second-highest rate behind only the 49ers and Christian McCaffrey. Warren is the better bet to serve as Pittsburgh's primary running back given Aaron Rodgers' immobility and need for pass protection and receiving outlets.
