Tank Bigsby vs Woody MarksWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Tank Bigsby is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 8.6 PPG to Woody Marks's 8.3 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Tank Bigsby is the better fantasy play this season.

This one is genuinely close. Tank Bigsby edges Woody Marks by 0.3 PPG, but both are in the same production tier. The decision comes down to weekly matchup, not season-long resume. If you are choosing between them in a draft, Tank Bigsby goes slightly earlier based on volume, but do not reach for the difference.

Low confidence: the production gap is narrow enough that weekly context matters more than the season line.

Fantasy Tiers

Tank Bigsby: Tier 5 (Deep League) RB (ranked #99 at the position). Woody Marks: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB (ranked #36 at the position). Among the top 50 running backs this season, Tank Bigsby is producing at 39% of elite pace and Woody Marks at 38%. That ranking gap means Woody Marks carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Tank Bigsby vs Woody Marks: The Full Breakdown

Tank Bigsby (8.6 PPG) and Woody Marks (8.3 PPG) produced nearly identical fantasy numbers in 2025. When two running backs are this close on a per-game basis, the weekly matchup matters more than the season-long resume. Tank Bigsby played 16 games for the Jacksonville Jaguars; Woody Marks suited up 16 times for the Houston Texans.

A 0.3-point per-game gap over a full season is essentially noise. It means one extra catch, one fewer target, or a single broken play away from flipping the script. For a weekly start/sit call between these two, matchup analysis matters far more than the season line.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Tank Bigsby ran for 745 yards and 6 touchdowns; Woody Marks posted 703 and 2. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Tank Bigsby sits Week 12 while Woody Marks is off Week 8. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.

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: Tank Bigsby (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open. Woody Marks (age 25) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds.
