Last year, I picked Barkley No. 2 overall in my fantasy draft. I finished in 11th place in a 12-team league. The two were related. No one expected Barkley to repeat his 2,005 yard performance from 2024, but a drop from 125.3 yards per game to 71.3 wasn't on anyone's bingo card.

Barkley's 2025 decline raises questions about 2026 fantasy viability in new scheme.

The source questions whether Barkley can lead a fantasy team's RBs after a significant decline from 125.3 yards per game in 2024 to 71.3 in 2025, despite his 2,005-yard 2024 performance. The source attributes the drop to offensive line injuries and poor playcalling/scheme, and is curious how Barkley will perform in Sean Mannion's offense with a healthy offensive line. The source warns that drafting Barkley as RB1 may lead to fantasy failure, as it did for the source who picked him No. 2 overall and finished 11th in a 12-team league.
