Morency's knee costs him big stats: Morency entered 2007 as a top contender for the Packers starting RB job, and ended 2007 as a barely-used third-down back. After spraining a knee in training camp, Morency never had a chance to start a game as DeShawn Wynn and then Ryan Grant took over the Packers' running duties. Morency did light work, totaling 108 yards on 29 carries (3.7 avg.) with 30 catches for 199 yards and no touchdowns on the ground or through the air. Morency is scheduled to be a restricted free agent this offseason. (Updated 01/28/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Morency is not a lock to come back to the Packers in 2008 as they're loaded with running talent between Grant, Wynn and 2007 draft pick Brandon Jackson. Whether he stays in town as a backup or lands elsewhere, do not expect Morency to be a real Fantasy threat even though he is very good at catching the ball out of the backfield. At best, he'd be a late-round flier in the deepest of Fantasy Football leagues. (Updated 01/28/2008).
