With both of their top running backs from 2015 -- Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell -- hitting free agency, the New York Jets canvassed the open market and landed Matt Forte, formerly of the Chicago Bears.
It's a lateral move for the Jets as Forte has been a dependable, durable running back through the years, but he has never been as good as the hype indicated. Fantasy owners have loved his heavy workload, but Forte has been only a good, not great, runner.
