Running Back Rank: #49 Overall: #158
Morris continues to produce when called upon in the Patriots offense. He didn't play in three games last season, but still managed 727-rushing yards and seven touchdowns (both were career highs). Since joining the Patriots, Morris has averaged 58-rushing yards per game and has 10 touchdowns in 19 games. He'll challenge for carries again this season in the Patriots offense. Morris isn't a huge back, but runs with some power and has decent speed. He also isn't a bad receiver, which will earn him some more playing time.

Morris is a good late-round pick. He has some TD potential in a good offense, but will be hit or miss some weeks because the Patriots use so many backs. You just never know how much work Morris will get. |
