Running Back Rank: #112
Overall: #492
Maroney was traded to the Broncos early in the season and actually got some starts for his new team. But Maroney wasn't much of a factor, rushing 36 times for just 74 yards. His highest rushing total of the season was 27 yards. He has flashed some potential since entering the league, but hasn't been too consistent. Maroney has three of five seasons with more than 700-rushing yards but his career high in rushing is 835. He averages just 4.1 yards per carry for his career. Maroney is just 27 years old, but seems to be fighting for his NFL life at the moment, especially after an off the field incident during the offseason. Maroney has ability, but lacks consistency. He is a big back with plus speed and a lot of power. Maroney tends to do too much before hitting the line of scrimmage, though, which results in some negative plays.

Maroney is more waiver-wire material unless you are in a pretty deep league. He just can't be trusted, especially after last season. Remember, he has fewer than 100-rushing yards two of the last three years. He has some upside if things are going well, but until he shows signs of that, don't bother. |
