Ray Rice

Baltimore Ravens

2009 Review

ray rice - rated-r

What a beast this kid turned out to be! He didn’t come out of nowhere, however, as many had him pegged as a nice sleeper heading into the season, but the numbers he put up in the end were much more staggering than anticipated. He is built in the same frame as Maurice Jones-Drew, fireplug-style, and though he’s not as strong as MJD, he does add a little bit more elusiveness to his game. His style of play allowed him to become (basically) an every-down back in 2009, as he wound up stealing away a ton of carries from his backfield mate, Willis McGahee, as the year moved along. However, McGahee kept his role as the touchdown-maker for the duration of the season (12 rushing, 2 receiving), which took a bunch of possible fantasy points away from “Rated R”.

ray rice 2009 stats

~ Set career bests in yards (1,339), attempts (254), rushing touchdowns (7, 8 total), yards/attempt (5.3), yards/game (83.7), receptions (78), receiving yards (702), and total yards from scrimmage (2,041)

Spread The Fire

2010 Fantasy Outlook

Here's how the Ravens offense will look in 2010. Joe Flacco receives the ball from center, hands off to Rice, who gets the Ravens inside the 10 where Flacco hands off to Willis McGahee who scores a touchdown. Rinse and repeat. Since it looks like the Ravens will be holding on to McGahee for at least one more season, it’s tough to see how Rice could do much better than what he put up last year. He might be able to add a couple more touchdowns, whether they be rushing or receiving, but more than likely, his stats will be right around the same as in 2009. Of course, that sort of production is pretty darn good and rates him within the Top-5 fantasy RBs in the league, so don’t be afraid to draft him as your #1 guy in upcoming drafts.

~ McGahee will still be in the mix, so Rice doesn’t have much room to grow

~ With a better receiving corps this year, the offense will undoubtedly open up for Rice

~ Rice is about as electric as they come, and with another offseason to grow with the offense, he should be even more lethal in 2010

Handcuff

Willis McGahee - Willis used to be a starter, but Rice is simply better than him, and McGahee seems to know it. However, if you do end up with Rice, you'd probably be wise to back him up with McGahee just in case.

Breaking News

Ray Rice's chest injury no big deal expand +

Ravens running back Ray Rice injured his chest in the game against the Lions on Sunday, but coach John Harbaugh said today that the reason Rice left the game five plays into the 3rd quarter was simply because they were blowing Detroit out and that he could have finished the game if the score was closer.

Pyro's Take:

Big sigh of relief for Rice owners. Baltimore has another favorable matchup for Ray next week as the Ravens stay at home to take on the Bears. Make sure you keep the shifty little RB in your fantasy football lineup for Week 15.

Ray Rice sheds the RBBC with his play expand +

With the way Ravens running back Ray Rice has been playing, the coaches don't see a reason to ever take him off the field.
“It’s hard to refute with what Ray’s done,” coach John Harbaugh said. “You look at that game on offense, Ray was the guy making the plays. So, it’s pretty hard to take him off the field when he’s making the plays. I don’t think it has anything to do with Willis as much as it has to do with the way Ray’s playing.”

Pyro's Take:

Ray has had 20+ touches four games in a row now while fellow RB Willis McGahee has had 12 touches in those four games combined. Basically, there is no RBBC in Baltimore, and Rice has now become a high-end RB2, if not a low-end RB1 play for your fantasy football team.

Ray Rice enters the season as first-string tailback expand +

Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice said that he will start in the backfield against the Chiefs on Sunday. Rice had been starting ahead of fellow RB Willis McGahee all preseason as well.

Pyro's Take:

This isn't what you would call a shocker, as the writing has been all over the wall for this one for quite some time now. McGahee is an injury-prone headcase, and LeRon McClain has been moved back to the FB position. The doors are wide open for Rice to become a stud this year and should be drafted and used as a high upside RB2 on your team.

Ravens' Ray Rice was full-time guy with starters in MNF preseason game expand +

Rice received all of the carries in the first quarter with the starters, including a three-yard TD run in an "and goal" situation.

Pyro's Take:

McGahee ran with the 2nd teamers and McClain received a couple of carries out of the same backfield with Rice.

Rice has been on our sleeper list from day one. We still expect this to be a RBBC, but if Rice can emerge as the goal-line guy, he will return owners a huge ROI on draft day.

Rice starter on Ravens first depth chart expand +

The Baltimore Ravens have released their first depth chart of the season, and as expected, Ray Rice tops the list at RB with Willis McGahee listed as the backup.

Pyro's Take:

No surprise here, as Rice has impressed in the offseason and McGahee has been dealing with surgery. Rice is still on track to be one of the biggest sleepers this year.

Ray Rice more complete player expand +

The second-year RB for the Baltimore Ravens bulked up to 207 lbs this offseason (from 202 lbs last season), most notably in his upper body. He said, "I actually want to run into some people. I feel like a more complete player as far as running, catching and blocking.”

Pyro's Take:

Ravens coach John Harbaugh likes the bulk that Rice added in the offseason. "He’s a little bigger, and he’s actually leaner, faster, quicker, and he’s in great shape. He looked good." This is good news for Rice as his stock continues to rise while Willis McGahee's stock falls with his injuries. We expect Rice to be the starter, and get the majority of the carries, in a RBBC setting.

Ray Rice to start in RBBC scenario expand +

Cam Cameron, the Baltimore Ravens OC, said that he will be using a, "running back by committee. You could see all three of them in the game at the same time. You could see any combination of the two." However, with Willis McGahee recovering from surgery until now, Rice is the starter as training camp arrives.

Pyro's Take:

Rice will get the majority of the carries in this system, but he will lose some to McGahee and to McClain, who will probably be used on short-yardage and goal-line situations. But at the end of the season, Rice will be Baltimore's leading rusher.
