Charbonnet's goal-line and passing-down dominance offers leverage upside in best-ball playoffs.

Charbonnet handled 66.7% of Seattle's rush attempts inside the 5-yard line and plunged into the end zone 12 times as a rusher in 17 games last season. Per PFF, Charbonnet's 67 pass-blocking snaps led Seattle's running backs, and he led the backfield in route participation rate (33.7%). The club picked Jadarian Price in the first round of this year's NFL Draft, but Charbonnet could be trusted with the high-value opportunities (goal-line and passing-down work) when he returns. Joe Brady recommends thoughtful roster construction anticipating he might miss time or underperform early, making him valuable only when bye weeks are staggered, backloaded, or he's part of a backfield of six or more running backs. When healthy, Charbonnet's goal-line and passing-down dominance could make him a leverage play in best-ball playoffs if less thoughtful gamers depress their advancement odds by drafting him unprepared.
