Jeremiyah Love

NFL player. Position: RB. Team: ARI.

Quick Facts

2026 Outlook

Clear 1.01 in dynasty rookie drafts with "wide gap" to 1.02, per Sharp Football Analysis (Hribar), who calls Love "a special player capable of having multiple elite RB1 seasons." Went 3rd overall in 2026 NFL Draft (highest RB pick since Saquon Barkley). FantasyLife's Rookie Super Model ranks him 91.8 — 5th all-time. PFF puts him as the clear #1 dynasty rookie despite a sub-optimal Cardinals landing spot.

Mid-range RB2 with RB1 upside for 2026 redraft per Freedman, who has Love as his RB10. Rookie deal includes $50.5M guaranteed — a record for an RB. Workhorse 6'0"/212 frame, 4.35 forty.

The Cardinals landing spot is the wrinkle: Tyler Allgeier signed a 2yr/$12.3M deal, James Conner returns, and the team ranked bottom-10 in points scored and 4th-lowest in run-block grade (55.3) in 2025. PFF flags this as a real concern. Freedman projects 63% rush share, weighted toward historical top-10 pick trends. (per [[Rich Hribar's 2026 Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Rankings]])

Role / Depth Chart

Projected lead back in committee with a strong receiving role. Allgeier could siphon goal-line work — that's the TD-ceiling risk. Receiving game offers another lane: ranks 2nd among the draft's top-20 RBs in PFF receiving grade (79.2). Landing with Mike LaFleur (Jets OC 2025 who had Breece Hall averaging 5.8 yards per carry before Hall's mid-season ACL tear) is a positive coaching tie. CBS Sports calls it "either Jeremiyah Love or his former Notre Dame teammate Jadarian Price" for All-Rookie RB, giving the edge to Love because of the Mike LaFleur system fit. Love is the consensus All-Rookie team RB selection (per [[2026 NFL All-Rookie Team: Browns, Jets dominate early predictions of first-year standouts]]).
