Draft Note by John Paulsen
Pollard has finished RB21 and RB22 in back-to-back seasons, which is reliable production but not particularly useful for fantasy. His efficiency profile explains the ceiling. His run grade (28th percentile), success rate (18th percentile), and YAC/Att (35th percentile) are all below average, and his elusive rating (42nd percentile) doesn't suggest he's generating many yards on his own. His YBC/Att (72nd percentile) is pretty good, and indicates Tennessee's line creates some pre-contact room. His receiving game compounds the issue–his YPRR (18th percentile) and route grade (22nd percentile) are near the bottom of the position despite decent target volume (41). The ceiling here is another mid-low-end RB2 season.
