The NFL preseason can often give us a window into depth chart movement, not to mention rising and falling player values as we enter fantasy football draft season. That's been the case again this summer, as we've seen new names pop while others could be suddenly battling for a roster spot. With that in mind, here's a list of players who should move up your rank lists or at least be on your late-round radar.
Rhamondre Stevenson, RB, Patriots: The retirement of James White opens up a big role in the Patriots' offense, and it could benefit Stevenson the most. In a preseason tilt against the Panthers, Stevenson shared the early down work while splitting drives with Damien Harris. Ty Montgomery was also in the mix, but Harris and Stevenson are the top two runners in the team's rotation. Both players have flex value in all 2022 drafts.
Brian Robinson, RB, Commanders: The fall of Antonio Gibson's value continues as Robinson drew the start against the Chiefs. He played more snaps on early downs while Gibson rotated in but was clearly the second option. This doesn't mean you should run out and grab Robinson as an RB2, but it does indicate a changing of the guard in what now looks like a three-headed backfield with Gibson and J.D. McKissic.
