Ian Hartitz of Fantasy Life is today's guest as we take a look at Jamey's running back tiers! Heath and Ian will critique and let us know where they differ. First, Ian offers his take on RB strategy (4:00) for 2025 and we run through the news and notes before getting into the first two tiers at RB (10:50). We've got seven stud RBs in Tiers 1 and 2, but Heath believes there should be an eighth! ... Tiers 3 and 4 (22:00) are loaded with talent. Can these guys be your RB1? Should Ken Walker be in this tier? Then we get to Tier 5 (29:10) which is where Jamey starts to get nervous about the position with guys like Alvin Kamara and James Conner among others. Meanwhile, Tier 6 (35:15) is an interesting mix of veteran RBs and rookie RBs ... Tiers 7 and 8 (44:55) once again highlight the stability of the veterans vs. the excitement of the rookies. Should you draft R.J. Harvey or Aaron Jones? Kaleb Johnson or Isiah Pacheco? And we talk about Tiers 9 and 10 (51:45) with Javonte Williams, Travis Etienne and more plus more late-round RBs and handcuff strategy (1:02:00) ... Email us at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
