Running Back Rank: #69
Overall: #289
With the Patriots banged up at running back, Faulk enjoyed one of his most productive seasons. He had nearly 1,000 total yards and 58 receptions, which was a career high in catches. Faulk continues to be a big weapon in the Patriots offense. He has 40-plus receptions in three straight seasons. He is a great checkdown option for the Patriots. Faulk is a shifty runner with good hands and a good fit for the Patriots offense.

His receptions make him a very good option in PPR leagues. He won't get you many touchdowns, but about 600 or so total yards and around 40 receptions. |

| Jeff Zillgitt, of USA Today, reports New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said the team feels like they have a good competition at running back this year. RBs Fred Taylor, Laurence Maroney, Sammy Morris and Kevin Faulk are all in the mix. The Patriots have not had a 1,000-yard rusher since 2004, and so far there it appears they will have a committee approach again in 2009. Belichick said he plans to put the running backs out on the field and let them compete. 'I think we would be able to get production from all of them because that's what they have done in the past,' Belichick said. |
