Elite handcuff with ascending role and top-six upside if Williams injured.

Zero RB target going RB36 FFPC, RB35 Sleeper in the ninth round; the source views this as a worthwhile target at cost because he projects as a top 15 running back if Kyren Williams misses time (instantly top-five RB), but likely finishes outside the top 45-50 in a 65-35 or 60-40 split scenario. Corum was second in explosive run rate among running backs with 50+ carries last year, behind only Tank Bigsby; he had 145 carries versus Bigsby's 63. Kyren Williams' red zone snap share has declined significantly (63% in year 1, 65% in year 2, 38% in year 3), signaling potential opportunity for Corum. Corum earned more work last season and impressed the Rams coaching staff; he and Kyren Williams rotate every series with Williams starting each half and Corum coming in on the second series. Corum has not yet cracked into Williams' passing-game work or four-minute/hurry-up offense situations, but he is an ascending player with a path to take more work from Williams. If Williams goes down, Corum would be top-six to top-eight at the position for the duration of Williams' absence, immediately becoming the most coveted player off the waiver wire and an RB1 starter.
