If he does that again, he will be considered a top 5 RB in the league.
Heck he may already be there
1. AD of course
2. A. Foster
3. Ray Rice
4. J. Charles
5. L. McCoy
6. MJD
and then I'd put Morris followed by Forte, CJ28 and finally Trent Richardson
You need to drop MJD way down. He's no longer able to perform the way he used to, because of age, injuries and just being on the Jags. I'd take Morris over him now.
Marshawn Lynch, Ray Rice and Frank Gore should be above Forte and Richardson.
I'd go:
1. Peterson
2. Foster
3. Lynch
4. McCoy
5. Rice
6. Charles
7. Morris
8. Gore
9. Martin
10. Spiller
RB to make biggest increase in value in 2013: Ridley...NE is going to be running a lot more than in the past.

The Patriots may want to run more this year, but if teams start stacking box on them it won't work. The Patriots also let Danny Woodhead go, which was another safety value outlet guy for Brady like Welker. Woodhead was always in on passing downs and helped bail Brady out. Brady is going to have to find a lot of receivers quick during training camp in the next month or so.
I had Ridley on my fantasy team last year and he was a great 2nd/3rd RB Flex guy for TDs and yards, but won't be as good if the Pats don't keep their passing attack as a threat.

Teams won't consistently stack the box against Patriots because the Pats have Brady. Stacking the box is playing right into their hand. Patriots want you to stack the box. They dare you.
Back in the day Brady won Superbowls with weak ass WR's and TE's. HE does not need top receivers to be effective through the air.

What I love about Morris is how hard we rode him last year, and he never slowed or wore down. Always answered the bell, and in big-time situations. And stayed healthy through it all.

I'll also add the biggest waste of potential award: Ryan Mathews.

Jabar Gaffney and Reche Caldwell!
Exactly right. Teams have to respect Brady.
Stack the box and Amendola will go off for 200 yards and 3 TDs. We know he's capable.

Amendola would be a killer - every bit as deadly as Welker - if he could stay on the field.
Since his bones appear to made of glass, that is a big giant "if".

Alfred Morris looked good as a rookie but he's no longer new to defenses as he was last year. But the zone blocking scheme alone should assure Morris at least 1,500 yards rushing in 2013.

I don't understand the "no longer new, won't be as good" statement. I'm not picking on REDSKINS4ever as much as I am picking on everyone (media) who makes this kind of statement. I mean Alfred Morris played in all 16 games last year. By Week 10 or so, didn't everyone have enough film on the guy to "know his moves" or "read his tendencies"? He still got 200 yards rushing, his best effort of the season, in Week 17?
He was "no longer new" after Week 1, 2012. If you can't stop him after that, you can't stop him.
