| 0:05.9 | put the past behind and look ahead to the future with some early 2026 rankings. I'm John |
| 0:11.6 | Macri, joined as always by PFF's lead fantasy analyst Nathan Yonke. And for this episode of the |
| 0:16.1 | PFF Fantasy podcast, we're looking at Nate's early running back rankings for the 2026 season. |
| 0:21.7 | Right now, we're rookies are excluded from the list, but there might be room for them to come on |
| 0:25.5 | here later. We did a top 10 total player rankings already a few weeks ago now, but now we're |
| 0:32.8 | going to narrow it down by position. We got a few names in there, and we can kind of build off that. |
