Pick 12 in robust RB strategy; guaranteed touches despite premium cost.
Ashton JeantyRBLV
Drafted at pick 12 in a robust running back draft strategy example, paired with James Cook (pick 13) and Kyren Williams (pick 37). The source notes the robust RB strategy has been popular because over the past two years running backs have been injured at significantly lower rates than historically, top-drafted RBs finished as top fantasy performers, and there were no notable waiver-wire RB league winners. In an expensive running back season, Jeanty is being pushed up to the 11th or 12th overall pick rather than a 15th overall pick in a cheap RB year; the delta in being overdrafted at RB isn't large, and he offers guaranteed touches and guaranteed points early in the draft despite the premium cost.

I drafted Ashton Jeanty at 12, James Cook at 13, and then I got Kyren Williams at pick 37... this season running backs are more expensive in drafts than we've ever seen them. And obviously, you can only push up guys like Ashton Jeanty so far... he's going to cost you the 11th overall pick or the 12th overall pick
