2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
Saquon Barkley found a new home in a much better offense, signing with the Eagles this offseason after a challenging year with the Giants. Despite missing three games, Barkley narrowly missed the 1,000-yard rushing mark in 2023, contributing nearly 90 total yards per game and 10 total touchdowns in just 14 games. He achieved these numbers despite playing in an offense that ranked 29th in total yards and 30th in offensive points scored. The Giants' offensive struggles were compounded by Daniel Jones' injury, which left Barkley to carry the load in a subpar offense with truly horrendous quarterback play.

Now with the Eagles, Barkley has the chance to thrive behind one of the league's best offensive lines, even after the retirement of Jason Kelce. This elite unit should provide Barkley with more opportunities to reach the second level, where he can showcase his power and elusiveness.

The main concern for Barkley in Philadelphia is the team's reliance on Jalen Hurts' rushing ability, both near the goal line and in situations where other quarterbacks might check down to the running back in the passing game. Barkley caught 91 passes as a rookie with Eli Manning, but saw a significant drop in receiving opportunities with Daniel Jones, failing to reach 60 receptions in any subsequent season. Hurts' tendency to run instead of passing to running backs has led to no Philadelphia back reaching even 40 receptions in any of his three seasons as the primary quarterback.

While Barkley is expected to get more consistent playing time than recent Philadelphia backs, the concerns about his receiving ceiling being capped around 50 receptions are valid. The key question is whether he'll get enough usage in the running game, especially near the goal line, to justify his late-first-round ADP.

With only Kenneth Gainwell and Will Shipley as viable backups, Barkley is poised for an elite-level workhorse opportunity share in an offense that should remain excellent. This makes him a very safe bet to be a solid weekly starter in fantasy, with the potential to return to elite-level production if he can capitalize on touchdown opportunities. If things break his way, especially in the touchdown department, Barkley could once again be one of the top running backs in fantasy football.
