Zach Charbonnet

Charbonnet might eventually gain on Kenneth Walker in the competition for carries in the Seattle backfield, but in 2023 there was a clear division of labor in which Walker dominated the important carries while Charbonnet handled passing downs and some low-leverage carries. It wasn't enough for Charbonnet to establish fantasy value apart from the two games Walker missed, as the rookie second-round pick spent a lot of time blocking and was targeted just 30 times. As long as Charbonnet is just a passing-down player for the Seahawks, it will be difficult for him to establish mainstream fantasy value, though his college production and 214-pound frame suggest he'd at least be busy if Walker were to miss games. The UCLA standout and 2023 second-round pick produced like a starting NFL running back in college and backed it up with solid athletic testing, but the same can be said of Walker, who was also a second-round pick (in 2022). Charbonnet specifically needs to gain ground on Walker in the rushing rotation to carve out fantasy relevance that isn't entirely dependent on his backfield mate missing time.
