| Tommy Rowan Juan Elway | “Beast Mode should benefit from Wilson getting better and the addition of a real receiving threat in Harvin.” | “Should do well in the new offense, but injury concerns are there.” |
| Raju Byfield Win My Fantasy League | “Top five potential but backfield getting crowded with the talented Christine Michael and Percy Harvin joining Turbin in stealing snaps” | |
 Chet GreshamThe Fake Football | “The Seahawks offense with Percy Harvin and Russell Wilson in his second season should be able to move the ball and Lynch can't be kept out of the end zone.” | “Forte is somewhat risky in a new offense and some nagging injury concerns, but the new offense is right in his wheelhouse.” |
| Staff Rankings FFLockerRoom | “PPR or not, Lynch is going to be extremely strong in 2013.” | “One of my favorite players in the NFL, Forte has been dealing in injuries the past couple of seasons. If he can get away from the injury bug, he would be in the top ten.” |
| Derek Lofland Fantasy Football Maniax | “I love how Lynch ran last year with 1590 yards rushing and 11 rushing touchdowns. He turns 27 years old this year, so he should be able to produce another monster season with rookie QB Russell Wilson on the rise. Adding Percy Harvin will force defenses to pay attention to another weapon on the field.” | “Forte has had injury issues the last two years, but did finish with 1094 yards rushing and five rushing touchdowns. He's entering the back end of his career. I like him as a RB2, but I do not think he warrants a RB1 ranking anymore.” |
| Kyle Wachtel Forensic Fantasy | ““Beastmode” will somehow only be 28 this year” | “Doesn’t score a lot; yardage makes him very safe RB2” |
| Kevin Roberts NFL Soup | “Beast Mode doesn't break big runs often but he's consistent and reliable.” | “Bears new coach likes to pass, so it'll be interesting to see how Forte's value is affected.” |
