Since I haven't had time to do the research necessary to make a full-out fantasy football post I feel it necessary for me to make an opionated statement about the best RBs in the game for fantasy football, so here we go...
1 L. Tomlinson (SD)
2 S. Alexander (SEA)
3 W. McGahee (BUF)
4 P. Holmes (KC)
5 E. James (IND)
6 J. Lewis (BAL)
7 D. McCallister (NO)
8 C. Dillon (NE)
9 D. Davis (HOU)
10 C. Portis (WAS)
That in my opinion is the top ten running backs for fantasy football this year.
Here are my top five sleepers...
1 J.J. Arrington (ARI)
2 R. Droughns (CLE)
3 L. Jordan (OAK)
4 T. Bell (DEN)
5 T.J. Duckett (ATL)
Now, you have to keep in mind that Jordan and Bell are both pretty high ranked by most fantasy football draft kits (33 and 25 by yahoo, respectively). But they are still sleepers because alot of people are scared to pick them up because they are either unknown or competing for a job. Bell will be competing with M. Anderson, M. Claurett and someone else in Denver. JJ Arrington is a rookie competing with M. Shipp, who is going to be tough, but Arrington will win the job and have a HUGE season (1000+ and 15 TDs from the rookie).
Well, that's enough for now. More to come later.
