One of the most physically gifted running backs in recent memory, Barkley has certainly taken a tumble down fantasy boards this offseason. Previously a first-round fantasy pick every year of his career, Barkley is now being drafted outside the top two rounds in many drafts. While few can argue that tremendous upside does not still exist with him, his extensive injury history is now being weighted heavily in his draft day cost.
Barkley originally suffered an ankle injury early in 2019, his second season in the league. After missing three games, there was a noticeable degradation in his on-field performance. Then in 2020, after being a top-two overall pick in most fantasy drafts, he suffered a season-ending ACL/MCL injury just two games into the season. This burned many fantasy managers and the frustration only got worse in 2021 when he suffered another leg injury in Week 5, resulting in him missing almost that entire contest in addition to four more games.
Now entering his fifth season in the league, reports are that Barkley is back to full health, but there are now worries that he might have lost a step since he first took the league by storm as a rookie in 2018. Barkley averaged 5.0 yards per carry as a rookie, but that number has dropped to just over 4.0 yards per carry over his past three seasons. Certainly, YPC is closely correlated to offensive line play, which Barkley has been consistently let down by in New York, but his lack of explosive plays is also worrisome. Not only that, but we saw him get targeted in the passing game just 4.4 times per game in 2021, compared to 7.5 times per game as a rookie. If Barkley isn't being utilized at an elite level in the passing game and his offensive line isn't opening up holes for him to run through, then what exactly is he for fantasy purposes?
The positive for Barkley remains that he's the unquestioned starter for the Giants heading into the season. The team hasn't spent substantial resources on running back since drafting him and there's really no indication that they don't have full confidence in him. Even if he isn't quite the player that he once was, he's still a dynamic athlete who commands double-digit touches in every game. If he's able to avoid debilitating injuries, there's almost no way that Barkley doesn't provide a positive return on investment for fantasy managers, given his low cost.

Giants sign Daniel Jones, tag Saquon Barkely
$10.1M franchise tag for Barkley
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Mar 7, 4:29 pm
|  | So Daniel Jones is on the books for four years and $160 million with $82 million guaranteed at signing, per sources. There is another $35M available in incentives.
Saquon Barkley is currently at $10.1M on the franchise tag. (Jordan Raanan on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: The $82 million guaranteed for Jones comes in the first two seasons. Not bad for a quarterback that threw for 3205 yards, 15 TDs and rushed for 7 TDs in 2022 - his best season as a pro. His QB13 fantasy ranking was made possible by his rushing usage (708 yds) but it's hard to see Jones vaulting into a mid-level QB1 given his limited skill set. We've likely seen his ceiling as a fantasy QB.
