2012 Outlook: Bust (overvalued)

Last updated on Aug-03-2012 by Ben Standig

Name recognition will have novice fantasy players viewing Hightower as a potential sleeper after his first campaign in D.C. ended with only 321 yards and a season-ending knee injury. Smart players will know the presence of Roy Helu Jr. and eroding skills limits the upside. Unless your league gives points for pass protection and veteran leadership, you can sleep on this "sleeper".

2012 Mock Draft Results

Month	Position	Franchise/Comments
2012 Experts Mock Draft (June) June 6, 2012 - June 25, 2012	14.11	2MugsFF.com - Everyone loves Roy Helu, and they should. However, Shanahan can't be trusted, so even though he's coming off a knee injury, Hightower will get reps. In RD 14? Why not.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (July) July 16 - 27	13.10	CBSSports.com - Have a few handcuff options here in MJD-Jennings or Helu-Hightower, but Hightower makes more sense barring an MJD holdout. Who knows what Shanahan will do, but having both Redskins rushers at least keeps me covered.
