The 2021 RB4: A Case for Kenneth Gainwell

Dynasty / By /

Among running backs in the 2021 rookie class, three players have clearly risen to the top: Najee Harris, Travis Etienne, and Javonte Williams. All of these players are likely coming off the board in the first round of rookie drafts. The next RB to come off the board is where the questions start to come up. Who is the best of the rest? In this series, several members of the DFF staff will try to make a case for who they think answers that question. Today, I’ll be making the case for Kenneth Gainwell.

Each week I will bring you the latest updates and NFL buzz surrounding college players that should prove to be integral to future fantasy success. I will utilize recent statistics, performance and film, and general “front office whispers” to compile the intel I share with you. My hope is to provide you with a leg up on your opponents. You will know which devy players to target in trades and/or in what range of draft picks (both NFL and fantasy drafts) you can expect these players to be selected. If you want to read last week’s article, click here.

Now that Week 14 of the college football season has come and gone, we have a lot to examine. We saw a few teams fall from the ranks of the undefeated, one of which (#21 Marshall) was shut out. The top four teams in the nation flexed their muscles again, winning in dominant fashion. A couple of Heisman hopefuls made convincing cases to stay in the rankings, as we saw one unexpectedly stumble. The emergency scheduling of the “Mormons vs. Mullets” matchup played out as the game of the season. We now take a few minutes to look at some future fantasy players and how their draft stocks were affected!

Another weekend of college football is in the books, and we all got to witness a big game that finally lived up to the hype, watching Notre Dame actually come through in a big game for once. The double-overtime thriller, though, was not the only action, as we welcomed back Pac12 and MAC football this past week.  We continued to see offensive fireworks in the SEC as well. Consequently, we will sift through the Week Ten action and take a look at some of the draft stock movements for our future fantasy football stars.

I think we can definitively say that SEC defense is a thing of the past now after watching all of these high scoring affairs. The BIG10 conference will finally be joining the season looking ahead in Week Eight, but for now, we will examine this past weekend’s player performances and draft stocks.

Compared to the previous two weeks, Week Six of the college football season played out relatively similar to what fans expected. There were many unexpected shootouts in the SEC this week, which is unique. However, outside of #21 Texas A&M taking down #4 Florida and an unranked Mizzou team upsetting #17 LSU, the week seemed status quo. We again will discuss some of this past weekend’s player performances and draft stock movement!

Week five of the college football season is now in the books, and although it seems cliché to say this, the weekend brought us even more surprises than previous weeks. We witnessed eight ranked teams fall on Saturday, further muddying the college football landscape before the BIG10, and eventually, the PAC12 teams join the ranks. Let’s discuss some of this past weekend’s player performances and draft stock movement!

We have now watched the fourth week of college football and have again watched this week one-up the previous slate of action. Colossal upsets of #3 Oklahoma and defending national champion #6 LSU by unranked teams have seemingly ripped a hole in the space-time continuum.  Additionally, we saw the Pac12 conference follow suit and decide to join the BIG10 in playing an abbreviated football season. The twists and turns of this unique 2020 campaign look to keep us all on the edge of our seats this year, so examine which player stocks were affected as a result of this week’s action.

As this college football season shapes up to be the most unpredictable in memory, it will be as important as ever for devy owners to keep tabs on what is happening. The COVID-19 pandemic has already caused major headaches for the college football landscape, as two Power 5 conferences have already postponed their seasons (BIG10 and PAC12).  Sprinkled in are many high profile opt-outs who have chosen to forego their 2020 season and prepare for the NFL draft.

High school, collegiate, and professional sports have been devastated. One of the most impacted organizations is the NCAA.
