Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Entering his fifth season, McAllister has run for 4,194 yards. Most of that came during the past three seasons. His best season was 2003, when he ran for 1,641 yards. ... Now with a revamped offensive line, New Orleans has sought to simplify its play book and rely more heavily on the run -- a plan tailored for 6-foot-1, 232-pound McAllister.
