Devin Singletary

Fantasy Upside
For most of his four years with the Buffalo Bills, Devin Singletary operated as the starting running back. Now joining the Houston Texans, it's expected that Dameon Pierce is the No. 1 option and Singletary is the No. 2. While Singletary has had a perfectly fine career to this point -- consistently posting between 950 and 1,1100 yards from scrimmage -- it's fair to say Pierce has more upside and is the better pick for fantasy. Singletary also adds some value catching passes. He has received 41, 50, 50, and 52 targets in his four NFL seasons and has caught 75.1 percent of them.

Fantasy Downside
He's clearly the second option behind Pierce in an offense that has a long way to go before being considered a high-end unit.

2023 Bottom Line
First-time offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik has spent his entire NFL coaching career working for Mike and Kyle Shanahan, the former in Washington and the latter in San Francisco. Slowik is going to take after the Shanahans in terms of designing the run game and utilizing multiple running backs. This really should help both Singletary's fantasy ceiling and his floor. It's OK that he's behind Pierce in the pecking order, because he will not be forgotten back there. Although he's not a player to target for a front-line role, with a double-digit ADP in 12 team leagues, Singletary doesn't have to produce at a high level out of the chute.
