Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Depth/upside bet — RB role isn't locked starter volume yet.
DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer
Buy lowPacheco ran for 462 yards and caught 19 passes in 2025, finishing RB55. He scored about 18% less than his touches said he should. Path runs RB16 → RB63 → RB55 — a bounce-back, not a blank slate. Only 7 games in 2024 — availability is the headline. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
