Ellis Merriweather, RB Packers | Dynasty Ranking

Ellis Merriweather carries a 39.0 dynasty score, ranking 199 at RB. Merriweather’s 2025 production is trending stable, with a 0th percentile Verdict production grade, and he has one year remaining on his contract.

The 0th percentile Verdict production grade explains the gap between his production and efficiency. Merriweather has one year remaining on his contract with a $225,000 APY, securing his role. His contract security will likely allow him to maintain his current role in the backfield.

No injury entries in 2025. Merriweather’s Verdict durability grade is at the 75th percentile, but his age (26) and one-year contract create some risk. Age is always a concern for running backs, especially when considering their short careers.

However, his role is not entirely secure, as the Packers may reassess their backfield usage in the future. There are potential changes to the team’s offense that could impact his playing time.

This scheme may limit Merriweather’s ceiling, as he faces a high number of blitz pickups by the opposing defense. The scheme may not be conducive to his optimal performance.

Ceiling: RB2-RB3, if Merriweather secures a higher snap share and improves his efficiency. Floor: RB5-RB6, if he loses his starting role or sees a decrease in volume.
