Blake Corum — 2026 Fantasy Outlook
The case for drafting him
Corum's 2025 season was the clearest signal yet that he can produce when given the work. He carried the ball 145 times for 746 rushing yards and scored 6 rushing touchdowns — a meaningful step up from his 2024 line of 58 attempts, 207 yards, and zero scores. The touchdown production in particular is the kind of number that keeps a back relevant in half-PPR formats. He's on a Rams offense that has consistently featured a featured back, and his 2025 workload shows he can handle a genuine role. If that role expands further in 2026, the counting stats have a real floor to build from.
What the model projects
The projection for Corum is 76.3 half-PPR fantasy points. His draft value sits at -40.5, meaning the projection lands below replacement level at the running back position. He ranks RB45 at the position and #198 overall, placing him in Tier 9 on the board. These numbers reflect a back whose projected role keeps him outside the range of positional contributors who return surplus value in a 12-team half-PPR league.

The range of outcomes
Corum's recent history illustrates how wide the outcome band can be for a back in his situation. In 2024 he posted 207 rushing yards and zero touchdowns across 58 carries. In 2025 he posted 746 rushing yards and 6 rushing touchdowns on 145 carries. That swing — driven largely by opportunity and touchdown variance — is exactly the kind of volatility that defines his profile. A season closer to his 2025 line would push him well above the current projection; a season closer to his 2024 line would fall well short of it. His receiving work has been limited in both years: 8 targets and 7 receptions for 58 yards in 2024, 14 targets and 8 receptions for 36 yards in 2025. The upside is real but contingent.
How to draft him
Market ADP has Corum going at pick 103.2 — round 9, pick 7 in a 12-team draft, per a median across two platforms. That is the pick you would need to spend to secure him. His bye is Week 11. At RB45 and #198 overall with a negative draft value, he is a depth or handcuff consideration rather than a building-block selection. Draft him if you need late-round running back insurance and are comfortable with the variance his profile carries.
