The Facts:
For the first time, Maroney got about every first-team rep with the starters after being held back a bit through more physical practices due to his surgically-repaired shoulder.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Herald staffer Albert Breer, Maroney seems to be showing better patience on zone plays that demand he wait for the seam to emerge before going upfield. And his ability to stick his foot in the ground and explode are what will ultimately make him special, and a natural for these types of runs. Plus, you see him on more traditional man-blocking, straight-forward runs, and he’s showing the same aggression to the hole he did as a rookie. Breer added: "This kid is a 1,500-yard back waiting to happen, and part of him getting there is running smarter, which he’s starting to do. ..." Sounds like a good start.
