Past Fantasy Outlooks
2017
2016
Barkley is a potential first-round NFL pick with a rare combination of size (5-11, 223) and freakish athleticism, which was never on better display than a remarkable Rose Bowl performance against USC when he ran for 194 yards (7.8 YPC) and two touchdowns while catching five passes for 55 yards and a touchdown. Despite a tough schedule and a slow start to the year, Barkley finished his 14 games averaging nearly 135 scrimmage yards and 1.5 touchdowns per game. Think of Barkley's ranking less as third overall and more like 1C.
While Clement might be the best fantasy back to target in the Big Ten, there's little doubt Barkley is the conference's most talented RB in real football terms. Barkley has the look of a future first-round NFL pick thanks to his pro-ready size (5-11, 219) and elite athletic measurables. Despite playing with a poor passing game, Barkley ran for 1,076 yards (5.9 YPC) and seven TDs in 11 games last year, adding 20 receptions for 161 yards and a score. Barkley is a dynamite talent who produces even when the surrounding circumstances aren't ideal.
