2025 · Commissioner's Championship
Jeanty carried a workload in a below-median backfield
First-round Ashton Jeanty supplied Tolandator with thirteen starts and 159.9 lineup points, but the backfield's return was still limited. Fifth-round Aaron Jones added 46.4 points in seven starts. Across the complete season lineup, RB slots averaged 8.7 points per start against the other teams' 12.9 median, while TE was above its own benchmark at 9.7 versus 9.2. The positional shortfall was much sharper at running back.

Supporting facts
- Whole draft: 4 RB, 5 WR, 2 TE, 1 QB, 1 K, 1 DEF.
- Round 1, pick 8: Ashton Jeanty; 13 original-spell starts / 159.9 points; all own starts 13 / 159.9 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 5, pick 63: Aaron Jones; 7 original-spell starts / 46.4 points; all own starts 7 / 46.4 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 8, pick 106: Austin Ekeler; 0 original-spell starts / 0 points; all own starts 0 / 0 including later reacquisitions.
- Round 11, pick 147: Jerome Ford; 0 original-spell starts / 0 points; all own starts 0 / 0 including later reacquisitions.
- Fixed RB slots: 243.9 points, 28 occupied starts and 28 opportunities. Drafted-player totals may include FLEX; the slot comparison does not.
- Other managers' median points per occupied RB start: 12.85; this manager: 8.71. The season slot result includes later acquisitions, not only the named draft picks.
- Ashton Jeanty: round 1, pick 8, 13 original-draft-spell starts and 159.9 points. Aaron Jones: round 5, pick 63, 7 and 46.4.
- 2025 Championship weeks 1-14: RB 243.9 / 28 = 8.7107, other-13 median 12.85; TE 135.7 / 14 = 9.6929, other-13 median 9.18. Full-season slots include acquisitions; individual player totals may include FLEX, which fixed-slot comparisons exclude.
- Rationale: Jeanty's substantial workload coexisted with below-benchmark RB output. The contrasting TE result prevents a blanket verdict on the roster.
