Running Back Rank: #153 Overall: #661
Buckhalter didn't do a whole lot rushing the ball last season, but once again did a good job in the passing game. He caught 28 passes, giving him 26 or more receptions three straight seasons. Buckhalter has never been a big-time runner, though, rushing for more than 500 yards just three times in seven seasons. He does have double-digit catches in every NFL season. Buckhalter is a solid receiver with plus speed, which gives him a shot to break a huge play every time he touches the ball. Buckhalter has endured durability issues throughout his career, which has landed him in a backup role through the years.

Buckhalter is a good reserve back in PPR leagues. Outside of those, his value is really limited. And we aren't sure he matches last season's numbers as he turns 33 during the year. His best days are behind him. |
