Fantasy Player Notes: It was surprising to see Willis McGahee stay with the Ravens after speculation all last year that he would be gone in free agency. Instead the Ravens decided to keep their veteran runner for 3.6 million after his 14 touchdown total from 2009. Look for McGahee to continue to steal touchdowns from Ray Rice.

Before you’re 2010 fantasy football draft begins, it’s always good to see the schedule of particular players you’re prospecting for your future team.

Once the 2010 – 2011 season has started, we will find out which teams are for real and which teams are going to fold up. Who would have thought the Bengals would go undefeated in their division and the Titans would start out losing their first six games in 2009?

2009 Fantasy Year In Review: It was hard to see Willis McGahee posting double digit touchdowns as Ray Rice’s backup but perhaps the writing was on the wall all along. Rice came into his second year without a touchdown in his rookie season and that year LeRon McClain was a beast at the goal line.

In 2009, the Ravens moved McClain over to the full back position and used McGahee as Rice’s only main backup. Since Rice isn’t the biggest running back the Ravens like to use another player at times to finish the drives in the end zone.

For the year McGahee had twelve rushing touchdowns and fourteen overall. He also posted a very nice five yard per carry average on his 109 carries for the season. We haven’t seen McGahee play like that since his rookie season in 2004.

2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: As the season drew to a close for the Ravens it was originally expected that the team wouldn’t pick up McGahee’s option for the final year of his contract. Because the Ravens are making a run for the Super Bowl (and McGahee’s production) they opted to keep the veteran around.

This move cleary hurt Rice’s fantasy value as if McGahee was gone, we would have to figure the young runner would be ready for a solid double digit touchdown season. Instead we have to expect that McGahee will continue to see opportunities at the goal line.

At this time, McGahee is a very nice hand cuff player to hold onto your squad if you already have Rice. If anything should happen to the young star, it would be McGahee that would be the teams’ starter. With a great overall team and a top notch offensive line, anyone that gets a chance to run on this team will be good.

If you don’t have Rice, McGahee is still a good depth player to have on your team as he can make for a bye week fill in.
