Before his Week 8 injury, Skattebo was RB7 in half-PPR FPPG from Weeks 2–7, and he showed passing-game potential with 32 targets, 24 receptions, 207 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in eight games. Greg Roman's run-game success and John Harbaugh's endorsement support his potential as a top-tier back; the Giants offered the ninth-most goal-line rush attempts (30) last year. The source gives a scary yes vote, with mid-RB2 value feeling like a lock if Skattebo plays a full season, though injury risk is real.
