Brian Robinson vs Zach Charbonnet: The Full Breakdown
The gap between Brian Robinson and Zach Charbonnet is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 0.8 PPG in 2025, this is one of those running back decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Brian Robinson averaged 11.5 PPG with the Washington Commanders across 16 games, and Zach Charbonnet posted 10.7 with the Seattle Seahawks in 16.
When two running backs are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Brian Robinson ran for 878 yards and 7 touchdowns; Zach Charbonnet posted 730 and 12. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Brian Robinson has his bye in Week 14, and Zach Charbonnet 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.
