2024 Fantasy Outlook
Allgeier drew the ire of Bijan Robinson fantasy investors in 2023, repeatedly poaching valuable usage from the exciting rookie, though Allgeier is a legitimate NFL running back in his own right. After all, Allgeier ran for over 1,000 yards as a rookie in 2022 at a clip of 4.9 yards per carry, comfortably exceeding expectations for a fifth-round pick. He's also done well for himself as a pass catcher when given the chance, bringing in 34 of 40 career targets for 332 yards (8.2 YPT) and two TDs. Despite the positives, Allgeier is a candidate to see his workload reduced for the second year in a row, with Robinson potentially taking on a larger share of the touches in an Atlanta offense that figures to run less often after jettisoning head coach Arthur Smith and adding QB Kirk Cousins. That will likely resign Allgeier to fantasy benches, even in deeper leagues, as an injury to Robinson now seems like the only realistic path to considerable volume/value. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Plays backup role in 2023
Allgeier finished the 2023 campaign with 186 rushing attempts for 683 yards and four touchdowns and caught 18 of 23 targets for 193 yards and an additional score over 17 appearances.
ANALYSIS
After totaling 226 touches for 1,174 yards in 16 games as a rookie, Allgeier recorded 204 touches for 876 yards across 17 appearances in Year 2. Allgeier's drop in production was expected after the addition of 2023 first-round pick Bijan Robinson, but it wasn't necessarily due to a reduced role on offense. The 2022 fifth-round draft pick simply struggled to replicate the 4.9 yards per carry he generated last season and posted a modest 3.7 mark in 2023. It's unclear if Cordarrelle Patterson will return next season, but Robinson and Allgeier should be back at the top of Atlanta's running back depth chart in 2024, barring a major splash in free agency. However, it's also worth noting that head coach Arthur Smith has been fired, so the Falcons' run-heavy offense may be overhauled depending on whom gets hired as his replacement.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Ranked top-10 RB by MJD
Following Week 1 action, NFL.com analyst Maurice Jones-Drew ranks Allgeier eighth in the first edition of his list of the NFL's top 15 running backs.
ANALYSIS
Allgeier checks in five spots ahead of rookie teammate Bijan Robinson. Jones-Drew, who led the NFL in rushing during the 2011 season, views Allgeier as the steadier of the two Atlanta running backs following one week on NFL play. After combining for 177 of Atlanta's 221 net yards and three touchdowns in Week 1, both Allgeier and Robinson should continue to play prominent roles for the Falcons moving forward.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Allgeier was an uncommon player at BYU: a power back who specialized in long touchdown runs. One might think he was a burner of some sort, or it would be difficult to explain how he kept running so far away from so many defenders. His 4.60 40 implied that his explosive collegiate production might have been a product of the scheme or the level of competition, but the fifth-round pick continued to make big plays as a rookie for Atlanta last year. Not only did Allgeier (5-11, 220) surpass 1,000 rushing yards, he did it with standout efficiency (4.9 YPC), buoyed by three carries of 40-plus. Producing 40-yard carries at that rate is something normally seen from the likes of Chubb, Taylor, Henry, Etienne, etc., so for Allgeier to be in that class at all is encouraging. The Falcons will remain run-heavy in 2023 under coach Arthur Smith, but Allgeier now shares the backfield with eighth overall pick Bijan Robinson, who presumably won't need long to claim more work than the likes of Cordarrelle Patterson and Caleb Huntley accounted for last year. It might take a Robinson injury for Allgeier to get enough work to be worthy of fantasy lineups.
