Quick fantasy outlook: More of a deliberate, non-explosive runner, BenJarvus Green-Ellis is the kind of back who can keep an offense "on schedule" in regards to down-and-distance situations but is not a player who can break game-changing big plays. Both of these points are evidenced in looking at his career statistics. He has never rushed for fewer than 3.7 yards per carry but never rushed for more than 4.4. And the longest run of his career is 48 yards. Having never caught more than the 22 passes he hauled in in 2012, Green-Ellis isn't much of a third-down threat, which could explain why the team drafted two running backs in the 2013 draft who will both compete for third down snaps. Look for Green-Ellis to start the year as a two-down player, but he could be overtaken by second-round pick Giovani Bernard at some point in the season if the team feels they need a more explosive runner in the early downs.
