2009 Season Outlook
When Rashard Mendenhall went down in Week 4 because of a fractured shoulder, Parker's fantasy owners got a reprieve. The backfield timeshare Pittsburgh envisioned for 2008 evaporated, and Fast Willie went back to being the starter. Unfortunately for Parker, "being a starter" consisted of getting hurt, not playing many third downs and not getting goal-line carries. Parker missed five games because of an injured shoulder, and after a three-TD effort in the Steelers' season opener, he scored just twice the rest of the year. Now Mendenhall is healthy again. Expect Parker to lead the team in carries, but Mendenhall and Mewelde Moore could be big-time drains on his fantasy value despite Mike Tomlin's preseason decree that Parker would stay on the field in goal-line situations.
