Elite 22 PPG finisher; one of five 20+ PPG RBs but ceiling not exceptional.

Saquon Barkley was the standout running back in 2024, topping out at 22 PPG. He was one of only five RBs to finish with 20+ PPG (alongside McCaffrey, Gibbs, Bijan, and Achane)—the most since 2018. However, Ron Stewart notes that even Barkley's elite production 'still wasn't crazy at a high-end,' indicating the overall high-end RB production ceiling was not exceptional compared to historical standards. Barkley was positioned above the green line on efficiency charts in the 96–108 ADP range.
