More on Perine and the RB board
He's a depth option, not a priority pick: #221 overall, #47 at his position. Draft late or stream based on matchups.
His current ADP in ESPN drafts is 168.9 (roughly round 15 in a 12-team league). We rank him #178 in 1QB Full-PPR drafts, so he is fairly priced.
We project 6.3 PPR points per game across an expected 9 games — approximately 57 points for the season. His typical game last season landed between 2.4 and 8 (middle 50% of results), and that puts him #168 in projected scoring (#178 on the 1QB draft board once positional value is applied).
He delivered at least 75% of his average in 50% of games, with a floor of 0.7 and a ceiling of 15.8 fantasy points. He boomed (125%+ of average) in 33% of games and busted (under half his average) in 33%.
