Ahmad Bradshaw's usage in the MIle High beat down is much, much less about his talent and much, more about the complete lack of talent in Trent Richardson.

Lucky for you, someone has to run the ball in Indianapolis, and the fact that Bradshaw apparently knows how to step in front of a pass-rusher - something completely lost on Richardson - makes him the defacto lead back and infinitely more valuable to the team in passing situations. He's not really startable with his current usage, but just wait: injuries will happen and Richardson will continue to not be good at football (he ranked third-to-last a season ago in effectiveness according to our metrics), making Bradshaw a sly pickup for later this season, particularly in PPR leagues.
