Summary

Penny's rookie season got off to a rough start when a broken finger during training camp all but cemented Chris Carson's position atop the depth chart. Perhaps more troubling than Penny's inability to win the starting job was his failure to beat out Mike Davis for the team's No. 2 role. Fortunately for Penny, Davis signed with Chicago, vacating 112 carries and 42 targets from a year ago. Carson offers zilch as a pass-catcher, which points to Penny at least picking up more snaps on passing downs, but there are also reasons to think he can make a year-two leap. Penny's 4.9 yards per attempt average as a rookie led all Seahawks running backs. And he flashed the star potential that made him a first-round draft pick when he rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries when Carson was sidelined against the Rams in November. If he's pressed into a starting role, Penny has win-your-league upside, making him an excellent running back target in the mid-to-late rounds of fantasy drafts. (May 5)
