RB: Rachaad White - TB

Updated: Jul 15, 2024




Last season, there were 33 running backs that were able to average four yards per carry or more. Rachaad White was not one of them. Rachaad White tied for 45th among running backs, averaging 3.64 yards per carry. He also ranked 45th among running backs, averaging 2.53 yards after contact per attempt, and he was tied for 38th, averaging 0.14 broken tackles per attempt. Christian McCaffrey and Rachaad White may have had the same volume last season, but they couldn't have been further apart when it came to their efficiency.


Rachaad White was one of the worst efficiency running backs in all of football last season. If you had Rachaad White on your fantasy team, he scored fantasy points for you and did exactly what you were looking for. But the underlying numbers to Rachaad White are very, very concerning. David Canales is gone. He was the offensive coordinator in Tampa Bay last season and the one dedicated to giving Rachaad White as many touches as he did. If that doesn't happen in 2024 and if Rachaad White's efficiency continues to be very poor, as it has been since he entered the league, we're looking at one of the biggest drop-offs of the 2024 season.


Also, newly drafted Bucky Irving could end up taking some of the targets that White received in the passing game. If you're wanting to invest in Rachaad White in 2024, go ahead; I understand why people still want to try and invest in him. The offensive scheme should still be fairly the same, the offensive players around Rachaad White should still be fairly the same, and maybe the offensive line gets a little bit better, helping Rachaad White with that efficiency. But I've just seen the efficiency be way too bad over the last couple of years to not realize that an absolute implosion could end up coming if the volume disappears.
