SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #9   
Overall: #9


Barber didn't start a game in the regular season, but started the Cowboys only playoff game, giving a glimpse towards the future. Barber should finally take over the starting duties for the Cowboys. Despite splitting work with Julius Jones last season, Barber managed 1,255 total yards and 12 touchdowns. Barber has 33 touchdowns in three seasons. He is a beast to take down, maybe the toughest back to tackle in the game. Barber runs hard every carry and has the speed to break big plays. He also is a very skilled receiver, catching 44 passes last season.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Barber gets overlooked a bit because he wasn't starting for the Cowboys, but his numbers don't lie. He is among the elite fantasy backs and his numbers could get even better in a starting role. Expect his first 1,000-yard season and double-digit scores, playing in a very good Cowboys offense. Barber is worth taking in the late first round or early second round of re-draft leagues even with Felix Jones taking some work for him.
