After bursting onto the scene with 2,000 scrimmage yards and Fantasy's RB2 finish during his rookie season in 2018, Saquon Barkley has missed more games than he has played over the past two seasons. The most recent update on Barkley's health entering the 2021 season lists him as having "a chance" to be ready for Week 1, which implies that he could just as easily be held out for Week 1 or beyond.

Still just 24 years old, Barkley is one of the most talented backs to play in the past decade and a clear top-five RB pick for Dynasty startup draft purposes, but just how high should he be ranked at the position in season-long leagues while health concerns linger?
