All Davis Mattek insights about Bijan Robinson
PositiveBreakoutOct 29, 2026
Robinson is positioned as a buy-low bounce-back candidate in Week 8, suggesting the source views him as undervalued and poised for a positive performance reversal.PositiveValueOct 20, 2026
The source advises not trading away Bijan Robinson and would not shop him, rejecting a proposed trade of Cook and Flowers for Bijan Robinson, Golden, and Swift. The source states he would let Robinson slide in drafts and is comfortable holding him at his current valuation, acknowledging he may be biased high on Robinson but maintaining conviction in not trading him away.NegativeUsageOct 19, 2026
Bijan Robinson's usage in a game where he finished healthy was record-setting in its scarcity; he generated minimal expected DraftKings production despite being the team's primary offensive weapon, with poor receiving involvement and limited touches in a game the Falcons nearly forced to overtime. The source notes this was the worst usage outcome he'd ever seen at that salary level. Robinson was projected above 20 points on the slate at 8K, but the Falcons' slow pace and the Bears' game-suffocation approach created downside risk; the source also noted Caleb Williams wasn't a cash quarterback, making Bijan a risky stack-adjacent play in a low-scoring game. In tournament play, Robinson was used as a correlation play with Caleb Williams based on the theory that if the Bears got pushed and Caleb had a 500-yard, five-touchdown game, Bijan would benefit from game script and offensive volume—but this correlation strategy swapped Walker for Bijan and dropped the lineup from first to fifth place.PositiveProjectionOct 15, 2026
Davis Mattek identifies Bijan Robinson as a great fantasy option, projecting him for significantly more points and a higher participation rate than Kenneth Walker III, even against the Bears.NegativeProjectionOct 10, 2026
Bijan Robinson is mentioned as a player fantasy managers instinctively target for 'longest rush' props, though the source emphasizes that these outcomes are primarily driven by volume rather than just player talent.PositiveValueOct 8, 2026
Davis Mattek ranks Bijan Robinson as his number one buy target for trades rest of season with strong conviction in his value and upside. Mattek strongly endorses acquiring Robinson in a trade, calling it 'crazy' to get Robinson on a strong team and urging trade completion. Robinson is highlighted as a strong roster piece on a 10-team league team alongside other notable assets.NegativeProjectionOct 5, 2026
Included in a prop bet parlay with a projection to score a rushing or receiving touchdown.PositiveValueSep 27, 2026
Davis Mattek identifies Bijan Robinson as the clear winner in multiple trade evaluations. In a direct comparison (Lawrence and Barkley versus Bijan), Mattek states 'Bejian easy easy easy,' indicating Robinson is the overwhelming preference. In a three-for-four trade (Bijan, Trevion, and DJ Moore for Bree Hall, Puka, Nakua, and Drake London), Mattek emphasizes 'you get Bijan' as the primary value driver, suggesting the trade is close but Robinson is the key asset. Across trade scenarios, Robinson emerges as the most valuable asset Mattek would target.NegativeUsageSep 17, 2026
Davis Mattek highlights Bijan Robinson's elite usage, noting he led the team in targets and points in Week 1, but warns of a low-floor outcome similar to Devon Achane's Week 1 if the Falcons' offense remains non-functional.PositiveUsageSep 14, 2026
Bijan Robinson is a high-volume workhorse who commanded 21 rushes and 10 targets in Week 1; Davis Mattek highlights him as a high-value DFS play that was under-rostered, noting he offered the second-highest expected production at a discount. He remains a must-start despite quarterback concerns because he consistently ranks near the top of the league in expected production.NegativeValueSep 10, 2026
Davis Mattek notes Bijan Robinson has low DFS ownership (less than 10%) but expresses skepticism about his Week 1 outlook, preferring to play Jonathan Taylor instead due to the game environment.NegativeProjectionSep 6, 2026
Bejan Robinson is listed among week-one waiver wire options in a best-ball draft context.NegativeValueSep 6, 2026
Davis Mattek ranks Bjan Robinson below Jamar Chase in draft rankings, suggesting lower valuation relative to Chase in the early-round tier; Robinson was also selected in the source's draft roster.NegativeValueAug 24, 2026
Davis Mattek advises against drafting Ja'Marr Chase over Bijan Robinson in home leagues, citing superior wide receiver depth in the second round compared to running back depth.PositiveProjectionJun 13, 2026
Davis Mattek is drafting Bijan Robinson at the 1.2 slot in a best ball format, positioning him as a premium early-round target in 2026 fantasy football.PositiveValueJun 7, 2026
Available at picks 59–62 on DraftKings as a strong RB option. Davis Mattek targets RBs at these picks rather than the available WR options (Carnell Tate, Jordan Addison, Makai Lemon, Brian Thomas Jr.), which are described as not nearly as strong. Robinson is used as a hypothetical example of an elite RB whose injury would reshape fantasy football strategy, implying he is currently healthy and a first-round consideration.PositiveValueMay 22, 2026
Bijan Robinson is an absolute fantasy stud on the Falcons side in the S-tier Saints-Falcons Week 17 game. Despite the game having only a 44-point total, Davis Mattek highlights Robinson as a key player to target in this best ball stack, explicitly recommending drafting him alongside Drake London as core pieces of the Falcons offense.PositiveProjectionMay 16, 2026
Davis Mattek ranks Bijan Robinson as one of the clear two best players in fantasy football this year, alongside Jahmyr Gibbs, and believes they will score the most points. He is willing to take Robinson at 1.01 ADP and views him as a foundational pick for robust running back-heavy teams. Robinson is characterized as having a very high ceiling in best ball, positioned as a cornerstone piece in a roster that emphasizes depth at the running back position.PositiveValueMay 8, 2026
Mattek identifies Bijan Robinson as underpriced relative to Chris Rodriguez; flipping their price relationship would be the number one factor making him want to draft more zero RB teams, indicating Robinson offers better value at current ADP. Robinson is potentially the running back two on the Jaguars, but Mattek notes he would have been a 10th round pick in previous years and is now expensive.PositiveValueNo date
Bijan Robinson is preferred over Ja'Marr Chase in early draft selections, particularly in portfolio/multi-draft formats. Davis Mattek argues that taking Chase ahead of Robinson is inefficient because Chase falls regularly to picks 4-6, while Robinson provides scarce early RB value that is harder to replace later in the draft.PositiveValueNo date
Davis Mattek is actively drafting Bijan Robinson as a core piece of tournament strategy, selecting him in the two slot of a DraftKings Millionaire tournament and including him in early-round stacks alongside Dak Prescott, Josh Jacobs, George Pickens, and Drake London in mock drafts. Robinson is being targeted repeatedly as a high-conviction pick despite correlation concerns with Drake London in week 17 matchups against New Orleans.PositiveProjectionNo date
Analyst does not believe Bijan Robinson is a bad pick but prefers Ashton Jeanty in the first round.
