Running Back Rank: #72
Overall: #332
Betts was a slowed by a knee injury early in the year and ended up getting a little less playing time then expected. He had 61 carries in 13 games, which was a career low in carries. But with Clinton Portis getting up there in age, Betts should get a few more chances this season. Betts is a between the tackles runner, but has enough speed to break a play to the outside. And his receiving skills are solid, catching 20-plus passes in three straight seasons.

Betts is a good handcuff for Clinton Portis owners. But we also like his potential as a No. 3 back. He'll get you 25 or so receptions and should see his rushing yards increase to at least 450 or so. |
