SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #76   
Overall: #344


Russell got some chances as the Steelers short-yardage back last season. He scored three touchdowns the last six regular season games and had touchdowns in both of the Steelers playoff games. He seems best suited for this role. Russell has good speed and the ability to run over a defender because of his size. He remains a bit of a project, but made some strides after two seasons in the league. Russell will compete for a roster spot with the Raiders this preseason.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
He could score a few TDs, but his yards won't be impressive at all. Keep that in mind if you consider taking Russell.
