# Rich Hribar: Hribar places Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson alone in Tier 1 of his 2026 fantasy RB tiers, edging slightly toward Gibbs as the top pick, and expects Gibbs to increase his share of Detroit's opportunities with David Montgomery gone. **Claimed:** Jul 30, 2026 **Pundit:** Rich Hribar — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/rich-hribar **Outlet:** Sharp Football Analysis — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/sharp-football-analysis **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.sharpfootballanalysis.com/fantasy/fantasy-football-rb-tiers/ 5 checkable claims — 4 depth chart calls and 1 fantasy ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > I am edging slightly towards Gibbs, given the greater top-down confidence in his offense, but that is strictly splitting hairs. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Penei Sewell to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Penei Sewell - Verdict: not settled yet - **Tier 1 Fantasy Football RBs: Jahmyr Gibbs, Bijan Robinson ...
