I can't figure out why they have Portis and LT2 down so low. Both are healthy...for now.....and neither have any real competition for carries. No, I am not a Sproles believer...he is a change of pace back..thats it.

I also wonder about Ward...and Tampa with all three there.

I like where they are at right now. I think it's perfect.

Ward doesn't surprise me, but Addai now has Brown to contend with and who knows what McDaniels has in store for Knowshon. I can picture a short yardage/goal line package with Hillis or Jordan putting a damper on Moreno's ff contributions.

20. Derrick Ward, Bucs

i think i just threw up a little bit in my mouth. if these are top 20 RBs, does that make all of these turds 3rd and 4th round picks? good. grief. i think i quit fantasy football.

Fodder for the machine. Denver is a bigger mess in the backfield now than ever and I'd be shocked if any of them cracked the top 20. Ward doesn't surprise me at all as Graham is capable enough to share the load. I am surprised no Pitt runningback is in the top 20. Parker when healthy has top 5 ability and with Mendenhall to eat up tough yard touches it would seem that Parker has a better chance to stay healthy for 2 touches per series.

 

[Da Bomb]

ryan grant should most definitely be in the top 20

 

[chrisslabaugh]

I think Kevin Smith will surprise this year. Yeah, Grant would probably be ahead of Ward or Moreno for me as well.

 

[ExperiencedRookie]

ryan grant should most definitely be in the top 20

Agreed

1st of all Bomb.. you can never quit fantasy football. You're a junkie and that's the bottom line.

2nd of all, I don't think Kevin Smith is puke worthy even if he plays for the worst team in the NFL. This kid had a pretty good year for a rookie on a god awful offense. 39 Rec. 1250 total yards. 8 TDs. That's pretty solid. I can see him making an improvement on that this year as well.

Picking this kid up in the 4th round isn't a bad investment at all in my mind.

the first thing i thought of when i saw this list is that there appears to be a lot of depth past the top ten . . . some of these listed are still in training camp battles or in a rbbc situation, but the teams listed are solid running teams for the most part or at least have the potential . . . i think it's very debatable whether some on this list should replace some of those listed in the 7th thru 10 range from the previous list:

7.Steven JacksonRBSt. Louis$25
8.Brian WestbrookRBPhiladelphia$24
9.Frank GoreRBSan Francisco$24
10.Marion BarberRBDallas$22

i think these are here moreso because they appear to have less of a committee backfield, but i think teams are leaning more and more towards rbbc because of the punishment these guys have to take . . . i could see myself passing on these guys in the draft for an upper wr . . .

I agree, could be a good year to stock up elsewhere and wait on RB's.....similar to last season.
