As you probably already know Richardson the #3 overall pick two years ago has been traded from the Browns to Indy. How many yards can we expect him to rush for the remainder of the season?
With Cleveland he averaged 3.4 yds per carry just off his career average of 3.5. His touches were down two a game from 17.5 to 15.5.
He can expect his touches to be about 17-18 a game moving from the Browns who had a 90-33 pass/run ratio to a 66-52 ratio with the Colts.
The Colts average 5 yds per attempt on the ground 1.2 over the league average while Cleveland is -.4. Given those figures Richardson should average about 1-1.2 yds more per carry. I project 252 more carries * 4.5 average + 105 yards already = 1239 yds.
In other words his Fantasy value has increased substantially.
