2010 Top 5 Fantasy Running Backs

2010 Fantasy Running Backs



Top 5 Fantasy Running Backs Picks

1 )   Adrian Peterson (MIN) Consistently number 1 or 2 in everyone's draft with an ADP of 2.6. Peterson has taken the league by storm the last three season toppling 1,300+ yards and rushing for double digit touchdowns. Most NFL stars have an anomaly season at some point (Manning 04', Tomlinson 05',  Brady 08', Johnson 09'). Now guess what other super star running backs had career highs in their 4th season? That's right, Terrell Davis and LaDainian Tomlinson! 

2)    Chris Johnson (TEN) Hard to find much wrong with the guy. This dynamic back could take it to the house anytime he touches the ball. But questions remain. Was 09' just an anomaly? He reached the coveted 2,000 yard mark putting him in a exclusive club with NFL legends in only his second season. Can he repeat? No, one has ever rushed for over 2,000 yards twice.  Is he elusive to injury as he is an on coming defender? The last back to topple 350 carries Mr. Turner spend 5 games on the sideline due to injury. Also, fellow 2,000 yard member Jamal Lewis saw his career numbers decrease after his 387 carries 2000+ yard season; missing 4 games the following season.

3)    Maurice Jones-Drew (JAC) Can SUPERMAN do it again? The offensive line has been questionable in the run blocking department and may slow him down. But he always seems to find the end-zone averaging 13.5 TDs per season!

4)    Ray Rice (BAL) Top 5 pick in most drafts. All purpose back with more ways to score than Tiger Woods. Rice's number 1 concern is figuring out how he will poach goal-line vulture McGahee who snagged a whopping 12 TDs last season! 

5)    Frank Gore (SF)  He's been over 1000 yards the last four years. He had 13 touchdowns rushing and receiving last season. This bull is ready to "Gore" defense backs!

NFL Week 4 Rankings

I feel the Jets deserved to be ranked number one overall because they had a tougher schedule than the other 3-0 teams.
Rankings are very debatable who do you feel are the top 5 teams? Bottom 5 teams?

Should have ranked the Panthers a little higher or maybe lower? who knows anyway

My NFL Week 3 Picks

Record 21-11 as compared to Yahoo Experts

Green Bay Packers at St. Louis Rams
San Francisco 49ers at Minnesota Vikings

Jacksonville Jags at Houston Texans- done with loyalty, they didn't even show up last week.
Washington Redskins at Detroit Lions
Atlanta Falcons at New England Patriots - It is hard for me picturing the Pats to lose at home but this 1-1 team could easily be 0-2. The Falcons have scored twice as many TDs than the Pats this season with 6, so I'm going to base my pick on that.
Tennessee Tits at NY Jets
Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles
NY Giants at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Cleveland Browns at Baltimore Ravens
Chicago Bears at Seattle Seahawks
Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders
Miami Dolphins at San Diego
New Orleans at Buffalo
Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals
Indianapolis Colts at Arizona Cardinals- The Colts would be nothing without Manning.
Carolina Panthers at Dallas Cowboys

19. Chris Johnson, TEN (@Pit)
20. Willie Parker, PIT (Ten)


Seeing as I don't know how some time shares will pan out I have left some names off the list like Donald Brown who I think is a good flex this week.



Ray Rice is left off for McGahee! What you talking about Willis? McGahee will be getting the carries inside the 5-yard line and I believe he will be sharing half the carries. Ray Rice makes for a good flex, I think 80 total yards and maybe he will sneak in a touchdown.
