SIT

Tyler Badie's recent four-game average of just 1.7 PPR points per game signals he is replacement-level at best.

Role & volume

Badie has averaged a mere 4.6% carry share over his last four games, indicating minimal rushing volume and role-driven value.

Projected role

With the recent coaching changes under Sean Payton and Bill Belichick, Badie's projected role remains unclear but does not suggest a significant increase in usage or value based on his trailing stats.

Range (floor–ceiling)

Given his current role and performance metrics, Badie's range is limited to replacement-level production with no clear path to higher value.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (7 flags)

Risk Flags

Depth Chart
Denver's backfield is stacked with J.K. Dobbins (RB1), RJ Harvey (RB2), and Jonah Coleman (RB3) all ahead of Badie, who sits at RB4 behind two rookies/young backs with clearer paths to touches.
Usage Decline
2025 target share was trending down (WOPR 0.08, 6% target share) and touches cratered to 8 carries and 19 catches across 16 games, confirming a specialist pass-pro/third-down role with no volume ceiling.
Roster Security
Badie returned to Denver in March 2026 on a one-year exclusive-rights tender rather than a negotiated deal, the lowest form of roster security and a common precursor to camp/final-cut casualties.

Opportunity Flags

Injury Concerns3
If Denver's other RBs suffer injury, Badie could reclaim a meaningful touch share; however, this is a volatile dependency given the talent available in the market.
Injury Contingent
If both Harvey and Dobbins miss extended time simultaneously, Badie is a known system player who could see emergency carries — an extremely low-probability outcome with Coleman and McLaughlin now ahead of him.
