What do you expect the split to be between RBs Antonio Gibson and Brian Robinson Jr.?
The Commanders boast arguably one of the best and most functional RB duos in the NFL, with Gibson’s pass-catching ability making him the ideal complement to Robinson’s bruising, workhorse style. But if you’re going to go with one of them, the top choice should be Robinson, who dazzled at times last year (his 82.5 overall offensive grade from Pro Football Focus ranked second among rookie RBs in 2022) and should get the bulk of the carries in 2023. Gibson could still be a good value pick, given his track record of receptions and ability to get into the end zone.
