Andy Hicks

RB23

Despite rushing for 1000 yards for Dallas last year, out of nowhere, he was a free agent registering very little interest. Carolina snapped him up to strengthen their backfield behind Chuba Hubbard. When Hubbard missed a couple of games, Dowdle went nuts registering 473 total yards in two games. Relegated when Hubbard came back, the team could no longer hold Dowdle back against the Packers. His numbers are phenomenal. He cannot be stopped. Flies up rankings.

Jeff Blaylock

RB27

He's been the clear RB1 over Chuba Hubbard in what has become a career year for the former Cowboy playing his first season in Carolina. He's a free agent after the season, and Carolina has Hubbard, whom they signed to a 3-year extension that has an out after this season if the Panthers opt to extend Dowdle.
