# Nathan Jahnke: A PFF fantasy piece argues several running backs are being overdrafted relative to their likely 2026 roles — Henderson behind Stevenson in New England, Tuten stuck in a three-man Jacksonville committee, Skattebo facing added competition from Najee Harris — while endorsing Travis Etienne as a top-25 back and Tony Pollard as a value at his ADP. **Claimed:** Aug 26, 2026 **Pundit:** Nathan Jahnke — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/nathan-jahnke **Outlet:** Pro Football Focus — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/pro-football-focus **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.pff.com/news/fantasy-football-running-backs-to-avoid-2026/ 10 checkable claims — 5 depth chart calls, 3 fantasy bust calls, 1 positional finish and 1 sleeper call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 11 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 6 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 5. > Tuten is currently being drafted as a low-end RB2, but there is serious risk at that price. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims -
