Running Back Rank: #46
Overall: #147
Norwood served as a change of pace back to Michael Turner. He had 827 total yards. He should serve a similar role this season, backing up Turner and getting plenty of work on third downs and passing situations. Norwood is a good outside runner with elite speed. He can break a big play every time he touches the ball. He isn't a great inside runner, though, which is why the Falcons probably don't view him as an every-down back.

Norwood can improve on last season, but Turner will get most of the carries in this offense. Norwood isn't a bad flex option in PPR leagues, but is more of a No. 3 or 4 back in standard leagues. He also is a good handcuff for Turner owners. |
