SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #78   
Overall: #340


Slaton continues to fall a long way in the Texans offense. He was more of a special teams contributor than anything last season. He had just 22 touches offensively. His numbers continue to go down, rushing for just 93 yards in 2010. Remember, he was a 1,000-yard rusher his rookie seasons. But at this stage, he is a third-down back more than anything. He is a good pass catcher out of the backfield. Slaton still has decent speed and some big-play ability. He isn't a great inside runner and seems to lack the size to be an every-down back.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Slaton probably isn't even worth drafting. He is young enough to jumpstart his career, but that scenario seems unlikely. His best season was his rookie season. He won't top that again.
Miami Dolphins RB Steve Slaton made his team debut in Week 4 against the San Diego Chargers, but he had just one run for two yards and one reception for minus-2 yards.
Fantasy Impact: Slaton could play a bigger role in a few weeks. Don't expect much now, though.

Miami Dolphins RB Steve Slaton said he has picked up the offense well since joining the team. Slaton could see playing time in Week 4 because of the injury for RB Daniel Thomas (hamstring).

Miami Dolphins RB Steve Slaton is expected to see some playing time in Week 4 with RB Daniel Thomas (hamstring) nursing a hamstring injury. 'I'm prepared to get reps,' Slaton said. 'I'm studying as hard as I can, and I just have to try to remember as much as I can for the first weekend.'
Fantasy Impact: We wouldn't count on much, making him a reach for fantasy teams.

Miami Dolphins RB Daniel Thomas (hamstring) was not participating during practice Friday, Sept. 30. If he is not able to play in Week 4, RB Steve Slaton could receive some playing time.
Fantasy Impact: Reggie Bush is the back to use in Miami this week if Thomas misses the game.

Miami Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano said the team has not decided how to use RB Steve Slaton at this point and they will take their Week 5 bye to figure out his role.
Fantasy Impact: We can't see Slaton playing a huge role with the Dolphins but he should get more work than he did with the Texans.

The Miami Dolphins have claimed Houston Texans RB Steve Slaton off waivers.
Fantasy Impact: This is kind of surprising since Reggie Bush is already on the roster and they are similar players. Not sure what type of role Slaton will serve.

The Arizona Cardinals are unlikely to pursue free-agent RB Steve Slaton (Texans).
Fantasy Impact: We'll see. Arizona seems a good landing spot for him.

The Houston Texans put RB Steve Slaton on waivers Tuesday, Sept. 27, and added RB Chris Ogbonnaya from the practice squad in a corresponding move.
Fantasy Impact: Slaton should find work. A team like the Cardinals could come calling.

Houston Texans RB Steve Slaton might have a bigger role in the offense in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints if RBs Arian Foster (hamstring) and Derrick Ward (ankle) are out or limited.
Fantasy Impact: Slaton might get more work in Week 3 but still isn't worth using for fantasy teams.
Houston Texans RB Steve Slaton (hamstring) made the team's 53-man roster. Slaton did not play during the preseason due to a hamstring injury, but he still was able to make the team as their No. 4 running back. He could be insurance if RB Arian Foster (hamstring) continues to have hamstring problems, or be used as trade bait when Foster is healthy.
Fantasy Impact: Slaton is pretty low in the depth chart so don't expect much. He could be trade bait at some point early in the season.
