Over his career, he has 228 carries for 5.5 yards per. That's really good.
It's the equivlent of having a single pro bowl season. Have players with one pro bowl gone on to be busts? Sure they have. But chances are that Michael Turner will be a great player for Atlanta, who now has one of the best RB duos in Turner and Jerious Norwood.
It doesn't make them an immediate playoff contender, but its a start.
