All Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz insights about J.K. Dobbins
NegativeValueAug 12, 2026
JJ Zachariason drafts JK Dobbins as part of his running back accumulation strategy in the dead zone, targeting at least four running backs inside the top nine rounds. However, he notes a significant concern: with Pacheco and Stanvaky injured, Dobbins lacks a clear handcuff option, making the handcuff strategy less viable for securing his backfield and reducing the appeal of the Ravens' running back room.PositiveUsageAug 9, 2026
Ian Hartitz notes that J.K. Dobbins faces a high rate of stacked boxes (8+ defenders), ranking among the top six running backs in that metric last year. Despite the defensive attention, Dobbins maintained a 5.0 yards per carry average and is objectively superior to R.J. Harvey in performance against those fronts, with the volume firmly in his favor.PositiveUsageAug 9, 2026
Ian Hartitz identifies JK Dobbins as the primary back in Denver when healthy, noting he out-touched RJ Harvey 164 to 75 in the first 10 weeks of the season. Despite facing a high rate of stacked boxes (8+ defenders)—ranking among the top six RBs in that metric last year—Dobbins maintained a 5.0 yards per carry average, proving his efficiency and volume superiority over the rest of the backfield.NegativeUsageAug 8, 2026
Ian Hartitz notes that J.K. Dobbins is part of an ambiguous Denver backfield where multiple players are being drafted in close proximity.NegativeValueAug 5, 2026
Handcuff option available in RB3/RB4 range; Ian Hartitz mentions Dobbins alongside Tony Pollard as alternative handcuff picks in this draft range for those seeking late-round backup RB upside.NegativeUsageJul 24, 2026
Dobbins had 164 touches last season compared to just 75 for RJ Harvey in the first 10 weeks, averaging 5 yards per carry vs. Harvey's 3.7. His role as Denver's RB1 appears cemented despite Harvey's superior efficiency, though year-two role expansion for Harvey remains possible.
