Past Fantasy Outlooks
2013
2012
Oliver was immensely productive in 2011, but his enormous workload broke him down for parts of the 2012 season, and he ended up playing only eight games. The good news is his backups failed to impress in his absence, so Oliver will continue to get all the work he can handle in 2013. Even in his "down season" in 2012, Oliver posted 821 yards and five touchdowns on the ground in eight games while averaging 5.6 yards per carry. If you have faith in his ability to stay healthy, Oliver is probably worth moving into the top-15 at running back.
Oliver was huge for Buffalo last year, rushing for 1,395 yards and 13 touchdowns (4.6 YPC) in 12 games while adding 38 catches for 365 yards. He was particularly strong as a receiver in the final month or so, totaling 22 catches for 267 yards in his last five games. Buffalo's shaky passing game allows defenses to lock onto Oliver, which can result in bad numbers against good defenses. That obstacle led Oliver to average 4.0 yards per carry or less in seven of his 12 games last year.
