SUMMARY
Running Back Rank: #19   
Overall: #33


Wells finally had that breakout season. He was a force, running as well as any back in the game early in the season. Wells had touchdowns the first four games of his season. He had 90-plus rushing yards three of those games. Wells had a three-touchdown performance and another game with 200-plus rushing yards. He enjoyed his first 1,000-yard season of his career. He also had double-digit scores for the first time. Wells did suffer a knee injury during the season and wasn't quite the same back down the stretch. He had fewer than 55-rushing yards each of his last three games and needed clean-up surgery on the knee after the season. Wells has a bit of history with knee injuries, which is a concern, but should be healthy for the start of the season. He will be the lead back in the Cardinals' offense. Wells runs well for his size and can make tacklers miss with his good moves in the open field. He lacks a little breakaway speed but is capable of the big play. Wells isn't much of a factor in the passing game, though, having 27 receptions in three seasons.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Wells might be overvalued a bit after last season. You have to like his rushing yardage and touchdown potential but he rarely is a factor in the passing game and is an injury risk. Consider him a top No. 2 back for fantasy teams. But don't overpay for him. He should get around 1,200 total yards and double-digit touchdowns.
Arizona Cardinals RB Beanie Wells (knee) described his arthroscopic right knee surgery Tuesday, Jan. 24, 'as just a scope,' and he said the procedure went as expected. He is at the team's facilities Friday, Jan. 27, to start the rehab process. Wells should be able to participate in offseason work if his rehab goes as planned.
Fantasy Impact: He avoided serious surgery and should be just fine for 2012 but his history of knee issues is a concern going forward.

Arizona Cardinals RB Beanie Wells (knee) was rested in Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks, and it was the decision of head coach Ken Whisenhunt. The head coach said Wells was mad at him, but it just didn't make sense to play Wells with nothing on the line and his knee not at 100 percent.

Arizona Cardinals RB Beanie Wells (knee) needs just six more rushing yards to hit 1,000 for the season. When he reaches the mark, he'll be the ninth player in franchise history to reach the milestone. He also has 10 rushing touchdowns, and needs just four to tie RB John David Crowe, who has 14 TDs in 1962 for the single-season franchise rushing TD record.
