2009 Outlook: Super Sleeper (high risk/potential)

Gartrell Johnson might be a rookie, but this back out of Colorado State can run. He faces a tough season ahead, with LT, Sproles, Bennett and probably Hester ranked higher on the depth chart, but it would not surprise me to see this young ball carrier get some carries here and there. In the pre-season he has seen some work, most likely for the coaches to get a better eye on him, but in my opinion, he has not let them down. Look for this kid to make a difference if he is given a shot and to learn as much as he can so that his future is promising. I rank Johnson as a super sleeper because he and Bennett could see solid playing time and yardage towards the end of the season if LT and Sproles are rested.
