Running Back Rank: #90
Overall: #417
Norwood had his second straight season cut short by injury, tearing his ACL in Week 2. He has missed 16 games the last two years. Norwood's knee injury was early enough last season, though, that he should be ready to go for 2011. Norwood hasn't done much in recent years, having his stats go down each of the last three years. He has topped 600-rushing yards just twice and his career high in rushing yards is 633, which came his rookie season. Norwood just seems to lack some of his burst from previous seasons. He is a big-play back and solid receiver out of the backfield. He fills the role of change of pace back well. He isn't a great inside runner, which is why he has never been a every-down back. He'll challenge for the Rams' top backup job this season and could be their third-down back if all goes well.

Norwood is seeing his numbers go the wrong way. And now he is coming back from a major knee injury, which is a huge concern for 2011. He isn't worth a draft pick. Let him show he is healthy and capable of producing for fantasy teams before grabbing him. He might help in PPR leagues, but that is about it. |
