Summary

Running Back Rank: #15All Players: #25

Forte enjoyed his third 1,000-yard season of his career, finishing with just more than 1,400 total yards. He had just three 100-yard rushing games but averaged 95.6 total yards per game. He got consistent work in the offense once again as the lead back for the Bears. He did miss out on goal-line work, though, and scored just six touchdowns. Forte has double-digit touchdowns just once in his career, his rookie season. Forte has good size and runs hard. He isn't a huge big-play back but will make the occasional big play. He'll churn out some tough yards and make a lot of plays out of the backfield as a receiver. Forte is a solid overall NFL back.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

His lack of scores his hurts his value, which should be the case once again this year. He'll get you nice yardage totals but his touchdowns will be below average for a top fantasy back. He can get 1,700 or so total yards and seven touchdowns. Consider him a low-end No. 1 or top No. 2 back come draft day.
