Fantasy Tiers

Rhamondre Stevenson: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) RB (ranked #22 at the position). Zach Charbonnet: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB (ranked #28 at the position). Among the top 50 running backs this season, Rhamondre Stevenson is producing at 53% of elite pace and Zach Charbonnet at 49%. That ranking gap means Rhamondre Stevenson carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Rhamondre Stevenson vs Zach Charbonnet: The Full Breakdown

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Rhamondre Stevenson finished the 2025 season at 11.6 PPG over 14 games with the New England Patriots, while Zach Charbonnet clocked in at 10.7 across 16 appearances for the Seattle Seahawks. A 0.9-point gap means any given week could go either way.

With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Rhamondre Stevenson ran for 603 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.

Both share a Week 11 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking running backs this deep on your bench, plan your replacement running back early.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Rhamondre Stevenson (age 28, 4 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value. Zach Charbonnet (age 25) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds.
