UNDERRATED STORYLINE: Feature of Giovani Bernard

His ability won’t be new this year and much talk early will revolve around new offensive toy Hill. But this team will feature Bernard early and often. His expansion as a receiver will only help create a scenario where he can crack 70 receptions and 230 carries for 300-plus total touches. Buckle up.

Last year on 170 carries Bernard had 695 yards and 5 touchdowns.  If you add another 30 carries he could eclipse the 800 to 900 mark. Last year Bernard had a total of 226 total touches.  If you put the ball in his hands an additional 74 times, who knows what he is capable.
