Their 2025 seasons

He carried 130 times for 603 yards and 7 touchdowns, and caught 32 of 37 targets for 345 more yards.

That came to 9.3 carries a game at 4.6 yards a carry and 2.3 catches a game.

He was on the field for 60 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Germie Bernard is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Rhamondre Stevenson is a running back and Germie Bernard a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Rhamondre Stevenson is off in Week 11 and Germie Bernard in Week 9, so either can cover the other's bye.

What would change the answer

0.9 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
