Blake Corum vs Cam Skattebo: Who Should You Start?
Cam Skattebo and Blake Corum are at different tiers heading into 2026. The New York Giants running back averaged 14.5 PPG in 2025, a full 7.5 points per game ahead of Blake Corum's 7.0 with the Los Angeles Rams. That kind of gap doesn't close on matchup alone.
The per-game difference of 7.5 points favors Cam Skattebo, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one running back to the other.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Blake Corum ran for 746 yards and 6 touchdowns; Cam Skattebo posted 410 and 5. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Blake Corum has his bye in Week 6, and Cam Skattebo rests in Week 11. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
