ATL to reduce Turner's carries in 2012     -- Sat Feb 25 3:15 pm --

In hopes of limiting wear and tear on feature back
Michael Turner likely will continue to play a major part in that approach, but Smith said he’s reevaluating how he uses his featured back, acknowledging that the wear and tear on runners today is “unbelievable.” “I think the thing we have to do as Michael gets a little older is we have to start putting him on a pitch count in terms of the number of carries,” Smith said. “Michael has over the last four years been a guy that’s had over 300 carries, and I think it’s very important." (NFL.com)

FF Today's Take: Fewer touches would be a definite hit to the stud running back's fantasy value. The bruising 30-year-old has averaged 1320 rushing yards and 12.5 touchdowns per season in four years with the Falcons, but could see those numbers drop 20 to 30 percent next year with a reduced workload.
