I hope so, because that's exactly how I drafted him in my PPR. Had an old school start with DJohnson/Freeman. Boom or bust baby!
If Freeman splits the difference and has 250 carries + GL & receiving duties, that's a pretty high end RB2, who should border on top 12 numbers in PPR leagues. But the Falcons offense has to not be teh suck and so far they've looked awful.
Also, last year Ryan was a RZ choker, throwing uncharacteristic picks trying to force the ball to Julio. Hopefully coaching takes that into consideration and starts running more in the red zone, and incorporating some RB screens, because the crap they tried all last year was straight up failball.
