Cam Skattebo vs Dylan Sampson: Who Should You Start?
Cam Skattebo and Dylan Sampson are at different tiers heading into 2026. The New York Giants running back averaged 14.5 PPG in 2025, a full 9.8 points per game ahead of Dylan Sampson's 4.7 with the Cleveland Browns. That kind of gap doesn't close on matchup alone.
That 9.8-point weekly advantage for Cam Skattebo is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Cam Skattebo ran for 410 yards and 5 touchdowns; Dylan Sampson posted 175 and undefined. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Cam Skattebo has his bye in Week 11, and Dylan Sampson rests in Week 10. 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.
