Washington’s backfield is the focal point of fantasy chatter, as Robinson’s future with the team becomes murkier and the depth behind him grows more intriguing. Reports suggest Brian Robinson Jr. is on the move and could be traded or released, which instantly elevates Jakori Croskey Merritt (JCM) and Chris Rodriguez Jr. in the minds of fantasy managers. Croskey Merritt has been rising on draft boards and even drew a Top Golf invite from the club’s evaluators, signaling they’ve watched him closely from day one. Rodriguez, the veteran on the depth chart, remains a steady contributor and could anchor a committee behind Robinson, should he stay. The discussion even threads in a hypothetical third back, using Eckler as a benchmark for ceiling in a multi-backfield setup. The takeaway is clear: monitor Robinson’s status closely, stash JCM Merritt in Dynasty and keep an eye on Rodriguez for a reliable floor if the committee forms; the Washington backfield could hold real sleeper value if Robinson departs.
