Bio
Dylan Laube was a dominant producer at Westhampton Beach High School in New York. He ran for 2,680 yards and scored 47 touchdowns in his senior season. For his career, Laube had 6,495 rushing yards, 1,234 receiving yards, and 120 total touchdowns as a runner, receiver, and returner. Somehow that was not enough to garner attention from college recruiters. In fact, Laube was unranked and received just one offer—The University of New Hampshire.
Laube redshirted his 2018 true freshman season after appearing in just three games. It was minimal production over the next three years before Laube broke out in a big way in 2022. In 12 games, he carried the ball 245 times for 1,205 yards and 15 touchdowns. As a receiver, Laube added another 464 yards and two scores on 49 receptions. Laube followed that up with a 715 yard season which came on 158 carries and resulted in nine touchdowns. He continued to shine as a pass-catcher, hauling in an incredible 68 receptions for 699 yards and seven touchdowns. When factoring in his return yardage, Laube led the FCS in all-purpose yards in both 2022 and 2023.

Bottom Line:
Dylan Laube is one of the funner running back prospects in the 2024 NFL Draft class. He was wildly productive over the last two seasons, albeit at UNH in the FCS. Still, Laube showed he can be a quality runner between the tackles with good vision, patience, and a knack for finding the cut-back lanes. He has enough speed and burst to create breakaway runs. Where he really shines, though, is in the passing game. He creates matchup problems from the backfield as well as lining up in the slot or even out wide. Laube is a legitimately good route runner with good hands and the athletic profile to make plays after the catch. His willingness and ability in pass protection will help him carve out a role on passing downs early in his NFL career.
NFL teams are going to appreciate Laube’s versatility on offense and experience in the return game. That will help him not only get drafted but make a 53-man roster as a rookie and work his way into a role that could eventually make him fantasy relevant. That will likely be as a change-of-pace guy and primary option in passing situations. Draft Capital will come in the middle rounds to a team looking to add a receiving threat to its backfield. In dynasty, Laube is a fun pick in the third round of rookie drafts with the longshot hope that he becomes the next Austin Ekeler.
