Running Back Rank: #76 Overall: #334
Goodson played a lot more his second season, even getting a few starts because of injury. And Goodson performed pretty well. He had two 100-yard games (back-to-back games) and finished with a career-high 452-rushing yards, averaging 4.4 yards per carry. He served as the third-down back much of the season, though, catching 40 passes. Goodson seems to have found a continuing role with the team. He fits the change-of-pace role well. Goodson also is a top return man, giving him value to the Panthers special teams. Goodson isn't a big back, but has top speed and moves well in space. He proved he could even handle some starting duties last season even though he lacks some size. Goodson doesn't run with much power, but makes up for that because of his speed and ability to make tacklers miss.

Goodson is gaining fantasy value, especially in PPR formats. He can top 50 receptions this season, getting consistent work from day one. A season with 750 total yards and four or so touchdowns seems about right for Goodson in 2011. He is a No. 3 back in PPR leagues and a No. 4 or 5 back in standard formats. |
