McKissic has always had a role as the pass catching back. This might bump him up a notch or two in PPR formats. 2nd to me would be Gainwell.

Man I want to help you but I’ve got no confidence. None have a truly clear path. Assuming PPR? No really clear rank just my top 3.
Abdulla
Gainwell

Abdulla has a chance to be a decent PPR waiver. Very well may get targets where Jacobs has never showed this.
Gainwell is a great insurance play for Sanders (injury risk to start). Boston Scott and Gainwell would likely split.
TDP. I have no logic other than Sermon is gone and Shanahan does crazy things. Have a gut feeling TDP sees a good amount of RZ touches.
ETA: I’d lean holding onto Robinson depending on when his realistic return is. Apparently Gibson is geared to take kick return duties. They may need Robinson later.

Probably should just wait and see how the week 1 injuries go. Everything could change after opening week

assuming any sort of PPR format, McKissic easily

Khalil Herbert. Have a feeling something will change in Chicago over the next few weeks.

If you want safest option for a top 35 finish, I’d go mckissic… his style of play and role basically guarantees he finishes around RB30 in PPR… classic reliable bye week fill in guy
If you want the highest ceiling, Gainwell is probably the only one with a chance to finish as a top 10 RB… but he could also end up as RB 60 if Miles learns how to catch… classic upside moonshot play
If you want to split the difference, Allgeier should fall somewhere in between the two. Should reliably get around 10 touches a game but on a bad team, so even if Patterson gets hurt, the upside is still limited… his ceiling is probably RB20 with a floor around RB45
I wouldn’t be touching any of the other guys on your list personally, not unless it’s a 16 team/large roster league
