What are your thoughts going forward? He actually had a pretty good beginning of the year until the ankle injury. I think the Falcons are a playoff caliber team and I think they will return to that next year.

[Steelersfan]

I think Turner will rebound for 2 very good fantasy seasons before he starts to decline.

He will be fine next year, but I would not be suprised to see the Falcons lighten his load a little to get more years out of him. Instead of 350 carries, I am thinking 285-315 touches, still enough to put up good stats.

[Risky bidness]

His new nickname next year will be "high ankle sprain" if they don't reduce his touches.

He was on pace to be right at about 300 touches this season until the injury. I was on the "sell" bandwagon after last year's numbers. His value wasn't going to get higher. There was little chance for him to get 350+ touches again unless the Falcons wanted to work him into the ground. Factor in his age (turns 28 next month) his fantasy career is going to be short from here on out. I'd expect his 2010 season to be fine, but a falloff beyond that time frame.

His trade value has allready peaked after last season(maybe even during). And I think it will go down constantly from here on, which doesn´t necessarily mean it is low now.After the first two good games next season I would trade him to a contender for the best possible in return. Mayne even now if you can get good value.

I agree with skip here. I think he will rebound next year but I would sell after that. Don't wait around for him to truly decline.

Skip is right...I would sell high at this point. Don't be crazy and undersell him, but now is the time to move him.
