Rookie Jaydon Blue steps into the NFL with some buzz from his Texas days. He snagged 42 receptions in his final college season and turned 134 rushing attempts into 14 touchdowns, showing off explosive speed and pass-catching flair. He's not your classic between-the-tackles bruiser - think of him as a scatback with breakaway potential.
Blue should see the field early, likely as a secondary option behind Williams, although the team may opt to give Miles Sanders enough playing time to cap both Williams and Blue early on. Blue's receiving skills could make him an exciting piece in the Cowboys' offense, but don't expect a huge role right away. He's more likely to cap the upside of other backs than be a standalone fantasy star, at least early on. Still, that pass-catching upside and explosive speed makes him worth keeping an eye on.
Stash Blue late as a bench option with PPR upside. He's a long-term play who could grow into relevance as the season unfolds, particularly if the veterans in front of him suffer any sort of injuries.

 Jaydon Blue picks up sprained ankle in final pre-season game
Ready for Week 1?
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Aug 24, 10:30 am
|  | #Cowboys RB Jaydon Blue suffered a low ankle sprain in Friday's preseason finale, per source. The rookie is hopeful to be ready for Week 1. (Jeremy Fowler on X)
FFToday's Take: It sounds like he avoided the dreadful high ankle sprain but Week 1 is no guarantee at this time. Given he played in the final preseason game, it appears he's behind Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders currently on the Cowboys depth chart. However, he's still worthy of a late-round flier in deep leagues given the overall weakness of the Cowboys RB room.
