Patriots running back listed as ‘must-draft’ by ESPN fantasy football experts

Published On:

TreVeyon Henderson, a rookie running back for the Patriots, is starting to make an impression in fantasy football drafts following a fantastic summer and an exciting preseason debut.

Henderson, who starts the season as the 19th-ranked fantasy running back, has the potential to be a fantasy football star as a rookie, according to ESPN’s Field Yates.

Yates selected Henderson as one of his nine must-draft running backs this season, confirming his belief.

According to Yates, this is instant offense for a squad in dire need of playmakers. The Patriots are in dire need of TreVeyon Henderson at the moment. There isn’t a Patriots wide receiver, aside from Stefon Diggs, that I’m positive will be useful in a league with ten teams.

It’s possible that TreVeyon Henderson and Stefon Diggs will be this offense’s two best weapons.

Henderson is already leaping up draft boards and into the top 50 picks of ESPN fantasy drafts, according to Yates and his co-hosts Daniel Dopp and Mike Clay. He is expected to have just over 220 carries, 992 rushing yards, and six rushing touchdowns at the start of the season.

Yates believes those touches might help Henderson, even if he acknowledges that Raymondre Stevenson might still have a big role in New England’s backfield.

According to Yates, Henderson might benefit from Rhamondre Stevenson playing a part. It’s a role, but not a big one. Allow him to be the lightning to Henderson’s thunder.

Yates said that the Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will benefit more than anything else from the signings of Henderson and Diggs.

Due in large part to the improved supporting cast surrounding him, Yates selected Mayeas as a possible top-10 fantasy quarterback this season last week.

Yates sees a squad dedicated to its quarterback and a signal caller poised to realize his own potential with the new weapons.

Yates stated, “I’m going to apply some of the comparable reasoning that I employed with Travis Hunter in Jacksonville.” Make sure your quarterback has access to all the resources available to him in order to help him perform at his best.

We all believe that Drake Maye can make a significant leap, and that is what this Patriots club wants to see. Giving Drake Maye a hand is the greatest way to accomplish it. And Henderson has around fifty yards the next time you put him in the microwave. He is a really talented athlete.
