Ahmad Bradshaw started Sunday and rushed 20 times for 76 yards with a touchdown. Bradshaw is a great talent when he is healthy. All signs point that he is finally healthy. In most drafts he was probably drafted anywhere from round 5 to round 7. By the end of the season I believe he will be in the top 10 for fantasy points for running backs. As the weeks go on I see Bradshaw getting more of the workload with Brandon Jacobs only getting looks around the goal line. I see a 75% to 25% split in carries in favor of Bradshaw which will translate into a lot of fantasy points. I expect him to gain over a 1000 yards and register at least 10 TD's this season. This week Bradshaw goes up against the Colts, the same defense who gave up 231 yards and 3 TD's to Arian Foster and their defense also lost starting safety Bob Sanders to injury. Obviously I don't see Bradshaw matching Fosters output but I think he rushes for over 100 yards and at least 1 TD and that isn't bad for a player that went so late in drafts. So put some trade feelers out there to the owners of Bradshaw if you were not able to get him in the draft and see if you could work out a deal because he should really bring a lot to your team. If he has a big week against the Colts your window of opportunity may pass to get him on the cheap side.
