After a major breakout in his second season, Warren fell off significantly last year. In addition to missing two games, his touch total dipped from 210 to 158, and his yards-per-carry average went from 5.3 to 4.3. Through his time in Pittsburgh, he was never able to unseat Najee Harris in any significant way, and despite being re-signed by the Steelers this offseason, the drafting of Kaleb Williams in the 3rd round signifies that Warren will once again be relegated to committee work. If he can return to being healthy and explosive like he was in 2023, and the efficiency numbers return, then there is a direct path to fantasy relevance.
Remember though, that this offense is still designed by Arthur Smith, and while he wants to make the run game the focal point, he's willing to use three, and sometimes even four running backs to do it. Besides the drafting of Johnson, former Eagle Kenneth Gainwell was signed in the offseason, and he's a Warren clone. Arthur Smith favorite Cordarrelle Patterson still remains on the roster as well, meaning that this backfield could potentially be a mess to untangle. Despite his talent, and flashes of electricity, there just won't be the volume to support Warren as anything more than a RB3.
