SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #125   
Overall: #563


Mendenhall had his second straight 1,000-yard season and built on the previous season, setting career highs in rushing yards and touchdowns. Mendenhall scored double-digit touchdowns for the first time in his career. He had three 100-yard games and double-digit carries in every game. He was a consistent factor in the Steelers offense. The Steelers offense is more pass-first these days, but still incorporate the run often, giving Mendenhall plenty of chances. Mendenhall is a complete back. He is a very good between the tackles runner but has the speed to break some big plays. He also is a decent receiving option as evident by his 48 catches the last two seasons.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Mendenhall remains just outside the top group of running backs. He is a player on the rise in the prime of his career. The Steelers have a good offense, which should net Mendenhall good touchdown totals once again. He can improve his yardage totals from last season with the Steelers offensive line in better shape. A season with 1,600 or so total yards and double-digit touchdowns seems likely.
