2012 Outlook: Solid/Safe Pick

Last updated on Aug-20-2012 by George Bissell

Michael Turner has rushed for over 1,000 yards in three of the last four seasons and has scored double-digit touchdowns in four consecutive seasons. However, there are legitimate concerns that the heavy workload will start to take its toll. Turner is also 30 years old now and is not a factor in the passing game, which hurts his value in point-per-reception leagues. Turner remains a low-end number one or a solid number two fantasy option, but he is a potential bust candidate with clear warning signs.

2012 Mock Draft Results

Month	Position	Franchise/Comments
MyFantasyLeague Expert Draft May 2, 2012	5.03	Fantasy Sharks
2012 Experts Mock Draft (June) June 6, 2012 - June 25, 2012	5.06	FantasySharks.com - It's hard for me to pass up Michael Turner here. Yes this is a PPR draft so Turner should rightly slide down the draft board and Turner isn't getting any younger but he doesn't have a lot of NFL mileage on him having started his career late. He has been looking great so far, running well, cutting well, and there's no way defenses can let Roddy White, Julio Jones and Harry Douglas run wild which means less coverage to stop Turner as opposing defenses can't stack the box.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (July) July 16 - 27	4.07	FFToolbox.com (Matt) - Turner doesn't have any PPR value but he's been a tremendously reliable back in recent years.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (August) Aug 14 - 24	5.02	FFToolbox.com (Ben) - Like everyone says when they draft Turner, I'm not really in love with him, but he's good value here and the RB pool dries up quick.
