Jahmyr Gibbs

Gibbs' rookie season was impressive, and the scary thing is he doesn't even look like a finished product yet. More specifically, his pass-catching production almost certainly will improve in upcoming years. During Gibbs' rookie season, his rushing production unexpectedly stood out, including 5.2 YPC and 10 TDs on 182 carries. It now appears he's an even better runner than most projected last spring when the Lions shockingly selected him 12th overall to be the dual-threat complement to bruiser David Montgomery. If Gibbs is a better runner than expected and his receiving contributions eventually reach the levels expected all along, we could eventually be looking at a fantasy MVP sort of player, something like a smaller, faster Alvin Kamara. As the Lions showed in 2023, there's plenty of room for Gibbs and Montgomery to coexist, because the Detroit offense is built from the ground and piles up yardage and touchdowns behind an excellent offensive line. Just the same, Gibbs is one of the NFL's smaller running backs at 5-9, 200, and Montgomery is one of the league's best power runners, depriving Gibbs of massive workloads and consistent access to goal-line carries.
