Past Fantasy Outlooks
2013
2012
Kirkwood carried the ball the bulk of the time for the Gophers in 2012, totaling 925 yards on 218 carries. The junior will be expected to shoulder most of the load again this season. He will benefit from the departure of running quarterback MarQueis Gray, who scored five rushing touchdowns last season. Kirkwood is the definitive starter for the 2013 season and will have a chance at increasing his touchdown total to over the six he scored last season. He's a starting option in Big Ten-only leagues who could make the jump to nationwide relevance this year with a little luck.
Kirkwood is Minnesota's top returning rusher from 2011, but he was very unproductive and there's a good chance that he'll be displaced by junior college transfer James Gillum heading into 2012. Kirkwood concluded 2011 with just 229 yards (3.6 YPC) and three touchdowns on the ground, meaning he isn't worth drafting in any league type.
