Rodriguez reunites with Coen at Jacksonville; 2nd in yards after contact supports late-round value.

Rodriguez is ranked ECR RB43 but projected as RB49, indicating the market prices him higher than projections (92.1 FPTS). The source highlights that Rodriguez reunited with Liam Coen at Jacksonville after they worked together during Coen's 2021 tenure as Kentucky's offensive coordinator, when Rodriguez ran for 1,379 yards with 6.1 yards per carry and 12 total touchdowns. Last season with Washington in Weeks 10-18, he drew six starts while averaging 12.7 touches and 57.7 total yards as RB31 in fantasy points per game. He ranked 12th in missed tackle rate and 2nd in yards after contact per attempt among 49 qualifying backs. The source notes he won't contribute much in the passing game (4 targets, 30 receiving yards last season) but could be an early-down and short-yardage option. Assessment: "He's a nice late-round pick in all formats."
