2013: Rashard Mendenhall was
highly efficient, scoring 8 times on 11
carries.
2013: Larry Fitzgerald was targeted
more than all the other wide
receivers combined
2014: Andre Ellington takes over as
the team’s every down back, and
should get those carries.
2014: Michael Floyd didn’t get a
target after mid-November. It’s still
probably Fitzgerald’s job.

2013: TE Tony Gonzalez led the team
in targets
2014: Even if Jackson yields the
starting job to Devonta Freeman at
some point, Jackson could remain
the goal line back.

2013: Ray Rice scored on just 4 of 15
carries, and Bernard Pierce scored
on just 2 of 7 carries.
2013: Despite missing over half the
year, and starting just one game,
Dennis Pitta was targeted the 2ndmost times.
2014: If they both struggle again,
does that open the door for giant
rookie Lorenzo Taliaferro?
2014: With a full season as the
starter, Dennis Pitta should easily
lead the team in targets.

2013: Fred Jackson had 18 carries
(third most in NFL), and 7 TDs. CJ
Spiller had 1 (and he didn't score).
2013: Buffalo QBs attempted 13 pass
plays, and managed just 3
touchdowns
2014: Is there any reason to believe
that the same coaching staff will use
Jackson and Spiller any differently
this year?
2014: Unless EJ Manuel gets a lot
better, it caps the upside of his
receivers, Sammy Watkins, Mike
Williams, and Robert Woods.

2013: We think of Cam Newton as a
goal line threat, but his carries
dropped from 15 in 2012 to just 3 last
year. Mike Tolbert out-carried Cam
Newton 13-3.
2013: Greg Olsen led all Carolina
players in targets.
2014: This is all Tolbert does, so it’s
hard to believe that it’ll change.
2014: Considering the do-over
Carolina did at wide receiver, that
seems unlikely to change.

2013: In his first season as the goal
line back, Matt Forte converted 13
carries into 6 touchdowns.
2013: Brandon Marshall was
targeted as many times as all other
WRs and TEs combined.
2014: The Bears were much more
efficient throwing than running.
2014: And, that’s why he’s more
valuable than Alshon Jeffery.

2013: Surprisingly, Giovanni Bernard
had almost as many carries at BJGE
(8:11). Gio also got 5 of the final 6
carries last year.
2013: AJ Green had almost as many
targets as the rest of the team (5:7)
2014: We assume that Jeremy Hill
will be the goal line back, but that
may not be the case.
2014: With Marvin Jones out for a
couple months, Green will have
even more changes. Tyler Eifert may
evolve into a goal line factor, too.

2013: Willis McGahee: 15 carries,
zero yards, 2 touchdowns.
2013: Josh Gordon led the team in
targets with 8. There is no receiver
on the team who was targeted for
even one pass last year.
2014: Terrance West could be the
answer. At Towson last year, he
scored 42 (!!!) touchdowns.
2014: Who will fill Gordon’s role as
goal line target? Jordan Cameron is
most likely.

2013: DeMarco Murray had the
fourth-most carries last year, 16. He
scored 7 times.
2013: Dez Bryant was unreal,
catching 9 of 11 passes for 9
touchdowns. He had the most
targets in NFL.
2014: New OC Scott Linehan threw
to Reggie Bush and Joique Bell just
once each last year. Neither scored.
2014: I see no reason that changes
under new OC Scott Linehan (he
threw to Calvin Johnson 5th most)

2013: Knowshon Moreno and
Montee Ball combined for a crazy
24 attempts (more than 29 teams).
They scored 10 times.
2013: Surprisingly, the Broncos’ most
targeted receiver was Wes Welker.
He had the 2nd-most targets in the
entire NFL.
2014: The only area in which the
Broncos struggled was rushing
efficiency. Monte Ball was an elite
touchdown scorer in college.
2014: That seems unlikely to happen
again, so it’s possible that Welker’s
fantasy production slows this year.

2013: Joique Bell was a star at the
stripe, scoring 7 times in 12 carries.
Reggie Bush only had 1 goal line
carry after Halloween.
2013: Calvin Johnson had 8 targets.
The rest of the wide receivers
combined for 2.
2014: If Joique Bell owns the goal
line work all season, look out.
2014: Oddly, Bell and Bush were only
thrown to 1 time each. New
coaches could change that.

2013: Eddie Lacy was great, scoring
9 times in 13 attempts. Aaron
Rodgers’ carries dropped to 2.
2013: Non-Aaron Rodgers QBs threw
just 4 touchdowns on 14 attempts,
which is why the efficiency is so low.
2014: With Lacy converting on his
opportunities, it’s unlikely that the
team will make any changes.
2014: Aaron Rodgers will improve
the efficiency.

2013: Need another reason to worry
about Arian Foster? He got 8 carries,
and scored just 1 time. (Ben Tate
was also 1 of 8.)
2013: With just 3 targets all year,
Andre Johnson continued to be
underutilized in the red zone.
2014: Perhaps changes to the
offensive line scheme will help?
2014: Bill O’Brien’s offense may utilize
Johnson more often

2013: Trent Richardson got 4 carries
(2 touchdowns). Other backs got 9,
which suggests that the Colts didn’t
trust him.
2013: Andrew Luck completed just 3
of 13 passes for touchdowns.
2014: Ahmad Bradshaw got more
carries, and could reprise that role.
2014: Reasons for optimism: Return
of TE Dwayne Allen and addition of
WR Hakeem Nicks.

2013: As a Viking, Toby Gerhart had
5 carries for 3 touchdowns, and 2
receptions for 1 touchdown.
2013: Chad Henne had the worst
scoring rate of all starters with just 3
touchdowns in 17 passes.
2014: Gerhart likely gets goal line
carries, but note that Jordan
Todman converted 3 carries for 2
scores. Storm Johnson is a big kid.
2014: Reasons for optimism: Return
of tight end Dwayne Allen and
addition of wide receiver Hakeem
Nicks.

2013: Jamaal Charles got 16
attempts. No other running back
had more than 1.
2013: Jamaal Charles's 7 targets
were four more than anyone else, at
any position.
2014: There’s no reason to think
that’ll change.
2014: Charles was the NFL’s only
running back to lead his team in
Money Zone targets. That’s not
ideal. Watch Travis Kelce.

year (good). But he converted them

2013: No player was targeted more
than 2 times.
2014: Will Knowshon Moreno win
goal line work? He converted 7 of 15
attempts last year.
2014: The diffusion of targets
suppresses the upside of Mike
Wallace and Charles Clay.

lousy here, completing just 1 of 7

2014: Peterson was a good fantasy
player last year, despite the meager
number of carries he saw.
2014: Reasons for optimism: new OC
Norv Turner and the return to health
of Kyle Rudolph.

Vereen had 3 attempts, gained 0
yards, and didn't score.
2013: Although Gronk played 7
games, he was only targeted 1 time.
Weird!
2014: Fumbling aside, Ridley has
likely earned the team’s confidence
at the stripe.
2014: Gronk was targeted 8 times
the prior year. He probably returns
to his previous usage.

2014: Mark Ingram has never been
good in this are. It could be a
random mix of runners, including
Khiry Robinson.
2014: Graham is so good at the

changing.

2013: Eli Manning wasn’t given
many chances, but when he was,
he was very efficient, scoring on 4 of
6 attempts (he was sacked once).
2014: His big back this year is rookie
Andre Williams.
2014: Rueben Randle is the only big

2013: Geno Smith was predictably
bad, completing 3 passes in 10 pass
plays.
2014: Chris Johnson had just 1 carry
last year, and has scored just 2 times
in the last 2 years.
2014: If the Jets come to their senses

2014: Maurice Jones-Drew is also
effective in this range, and either
guy could see carries.
2014: Moore might get cut. Deep

be a goal line target.

2013: Part of the team’s impressive
rushing production was due to Nick
Foles, who ran 7 times for 3 scores.
2013: Nick Foles was the most
efficient QB, scoring on 8 of 10
passes.
2014: Quarterback rushing is usually
fluky, and Foles could yield those to
McCoy.
2014: Last year, Riley Cooper was

Cotchery and Emmanuel Sanders,
are gone. Antonio Brown was
targeted just one time all year.
2014: LeGarrette Blount is now in
Pittsburgh and could take carries
from Bell.

Carlos Hyde?

2014: Even if Lynch loses 25% of last

2014: Tre Mason scored 23 times for

for goal line use, and should keep
the job.
