2024 RTSports Outlook

Ali was picked by the Ravens in the fifth round of this year's draft. He doesn't land in a good spot for playing time, having some good backs ahead of him on the depth chart. He is likely No. 3 or 4 for the Ravens his rookie season. Ali is a good fit for the Ravens running game. He has good vision and does a good job of setting up his blocks. He is a good one-cut runner. Ali doesn't do much in space and lacks some elite speed.

FANTASY OUTLOOK: Ali isn't a very exciting fantasy player his rookie year. He might look better in a few years. For now, expect around 200 or 300 total yards and a score or two.

RotoBaller's Outlook

Running back Rasheen Ali was selected out of Marshall in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Ravens. He's proven electric with the ball but is coming off of a torn biceps tendon suffered at the Senior Bowl, and he also missed most of 2022 due to injury as well. But he turned nearly 300 touches into 1,743 yards and 24 touchdowns in 2021 with a 212-1,135-15 rushing line as a red-shirt junior last season. Now, he's stuck behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill on the RB depth chart but could impress out of the gate with Keaton Mitchell still recovering from a torn ACL suffered in December 2023. Still, the volume ceded to Henry and Lamar Jackson makes Ali an afterthought in most drafts. But at 5-foot-11 and 206 lbs, Ali would garner interest if Henry were unavailable. For now, he holds an RB84 half-PPR ADP and is RotoBaller's No. 77 RB.
