Le'Veon Bell this seasons Stevan Ridley?

[@WeTlkFntsySprts 2]

Dri Archer can play the Shane Vereen role and Blount is now a member of the Steelers after scoring 7 TDs for the Patriots (4 in last 2 weeks) in 2013.

Ridley saw 178 carries (just 2 games with 20+), rushed for 773 yards (one 100 yard game) and scored 7 TDs...is that what we should expect to see from Bell in 2014, with a bit more receptions (Ridley had 10)?

 

I understand that Ridley lost time due to fumbles, but could we see a similar stat production from Bell in 2014?

 

Bell averaged 18 carries a game last season and it was not until Week 16 that he rushed for 100 yards, doing it against the Green Bay Packers on a season high 26 carries. He did finish the season strong, gaining 405 yards over the Steelers last 5 games on 101 carries, good enough for 4 YPC, and scored 4 touchdowns.

LeSean McCoy, Ryan Mathews, DeMarco Murray , Matt Forte, and C.J. Spiller were the only other RBs to rush for 400+ yards during that span. Blount, Murray, Steven Jackson, and Eddie Lacy were the only RBs to score 5 times. 5 other RBs scored 4 TDs.

Le'Veon Bell was a Top 10 RB to finish the fantasy football season.

Bell catches the ball and doesn't fumble if Ridley did those 2 things well he would be a top back without doubt.

Archer is not going to cut into his playing time I don't think and if he did I would be ticked as a guy in my league with no RB drafted until round 7 and no starting RB at all drafted this guy late while piling up on Green, JThomas, Cruz, and Watkins(yes, Watkins).
