Summary

Running Back Rank: #62All Players: #237

Wells missed some of the season with a knee injury but also was benched at times because of poor play. He finished with just 234-rushing yards. This came after his best season to date. Wells took a big step backwards in 2012. This season is going to be a make or break year for Wells. He has a chance to get back in good graces with a new coaching staff but nothing is certain for Wells going forward. He has one 1,000-yard season in his career but has played a full season just once and has fewer than 400-rushing yards two of three years. Wells runs well for his size and can make tacklers miss with his good moves in the open field. He lacks breakaway speed but is capable of the big play. Wells isn't much of a factor in the passing game, having 28 receptions in four seasons.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Wells is a decent buy-low candidate because he has some upside if all is right for him. We wouldn't use a high pick on him by any means but getting him as a No. 4 or 5 back might be worth the risk. He could emerge as the lead back in a new offense. He also could land on the bench and get little playing time. He'll be boom or bust in 2013.

Jan 28 10:33 am

Arizona Cardinals RB Beanie Wells is excited for the 2013 season with the recent hiring of Bruce Arians as head coach. Wells expects a better relationship with his new head coach; he often did not see eye-to-eye with former head coach Ken Whisenhunt. 'We definitely had our fair share of disagreements this season, and I've never been in a situation like that before,' Wells said.
Fantasy Impact: A new coach should be a positive for Wells but nothing is certain with him going forward.

Dec 26 10:33 pm

Arizona Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt said Wednesday, Dec. 26, that he wasn't sure if RB Beanie Wells would start in Week 17. Whisenhunt said who will start will be a 'package-oriented' result.
