BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 30% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Pacheco accumulated 563 rushing attempts (13.1 per game) and 2,442 yards (56.8 per game), during his career at Rutgers, while also collecting 47 receptions (1.1 per game) and generating 249 yards (5.8 per game) as a receiver. He later became the 24th (and final) back to be selected during April’s NFL Draft, but the 5’10”, 215-pound rookie has eviscerated those minimal expectations.
Pacheco was consistently impressive during training camp and the preseason, and his stock will now elevate even further after he garnered a team-high 12 rushing attempts during Kansas City’s Week 1 matchup with Arizona. Pacheco also paced the Chiefs with 62 rushing yards, while averaging 5.2 yards per attempt. He also led Clyde Edwards-Helaire in both categories, as Edwards-Helaire amassed 42 yards with his seven carries (6.0 per attempt).
Pacheco is a relentless runner, who possesses the size and speed to retain an ongoing role in Andy Reid’s attack. He will also benefit from operating in the Chiefs’ high-octane offense, which elevates him among this week’s most intriguing options.
