2012 Outlook: Deep-league Only

Last updated on May-11-2012 by Vin Sadicario

Pierre Thomas will be in the mix for carries out of the Saints backfield in 2012. Thomas carried the ball 110 times in 2011, but will struggle to reach that number again this season (unless Mark Ingram is once again hit by the injury bug). Even if Ingram were to get hurt, Darren Sproles will still be in the way of Thomas becoming a major fantasy impact player. Fantasy owners in deep leagues should consider drafting Thomas in the later rounds of their fantasy draft.

Pierre Thomas was drafted in 62% of MyFantasyLeague.com leagues with an average drafting position of 202.09

10.03 DraftSharks.com - A big year is coming at some point, and I aim to be involved. Thomas is the best all-around RB in this backfield, even if his coaches choose not to acknowledge it. Mark Ingram's continued knee trouble enhances the sleeper status of a guy who finished in low-RB2 range in PPR scoring last year.

10.11 DraftSharks.com - He's awesome. At some point, he'll get the chance to prove it again the way he did late in 2008. Perhaps the absence of both Sean Payton and Mark Ingram's knee cartilage will make it this year.
