Edge fell into this spot as Indy's RB & I think Addai will carry that torch well.
 
I really like Chester Taylor here. He is a true 3 down back, which is becoming harder and harder to find. He plays behind a very good run blocking offensive line and had been very productive in his role as the feature back. He is either 27 or 28 but relatively young due to a lack of playing time while with the Ravens.

True 3-down back even though MMoore has been getting a lot of 3rd down action? Hmm...I love the polls, but SO much is going to change in about 3 months. Can't we just wait :)
 
CT is a true three down back. MMoore may get some touches, but CT is 2nd in the NFL in carries and 9th among RBs in receptions. He truly carries the offensive load for the Vikes.

I hear what your saying. The thinking behind the timing of this is for a 2 reasons. 1. To get a sample while player performaces are fresh in mind. Most of us should still be thinking more short term right now with playoffs ahead. Mind set more towards who do I trust to win games for me NOW. Often in dynasy leagues people will think more toward the future. Which is indeed important. But my hope was that by getting a sample now it might be less focused on this than during the offseason.2. To get a sample of player values for use in post season trading.Over the next 5 months leading up to the rookie draft many things will change. Players will retire, coaches will get fired, new coaches will be hired and free agents will change teams. And all of those things will change players values. But what I hope these polls will do is give a indication of a starting point for how a wide variety of FF owners value players comparativly. And that each of us can use this collective information to our advantage in the months ahead.
 
This is about where I was slotting Bush last year; of course that was assuming a different location with little/no competition.

The guys from the list I would consider here are Parker, KJones, Brown, and Gore. Each have their benefits, but at this point I'd probably take FWP, who has fended off GL back talk and has stayed relatively healthy. Those were the 2 main questions I had before the start of the year, and boy was I wrong :bag:

I see the next 4 as Parker, Gore, Brown, KJones.

IMO Taylor falls in the next group, since we aren't talking PPR.

 
I'm on the Parker bandwagon. His youth overcomes some questionable offenses for guy who might have more talent.

I just don't trust Pittsburgh to not take a back in the first two rounds next year.
 
I'm not entirely comfortable here but I'd be willing to draft Frank Gore here.

He's playing with a QB that should only get better for the next couple of years and in a division where you don't play Baltimore twice each year......so I'd pick Gore slightly over Parker.

 
Frank Gore. Norv Turner run offense, sick YPC, goal-line carries coming back. If he stays healthy, I think he can break into the top 3 this time next year.

 
Why no love for Westbrook? In PPR leagues he's 3rd RB overall in points! And he's young. Yet people are ranking broken down Brown ahead of him? I'm guessing these are non-PPR leagues....

These are rankings for non-PPR leagues, but even in that format Westbrook is still third overall despite missing a game.
 
My initial instinct was Gore or Westbrook but injury risk seems too high so I'm thinking Maroney although to be honest there's not much gap in the next 5+ in this range.

 
I went with Parker largely because of his home run ability and his youth. After I voted, I kind of felt I should have gone with the more consistent Gore. Could have gone either way, really.

:lmao: the list went down the toilet at this point.

as for #6, could be any of several names... i'd lean towards maroney, with brown and mr. fumblicious gore in the conversation. as someone else said earlier, i'm not confident willie parker will be the man longterm, so i shy away from him.

 
Coin Flip between Parker and Maroney for me. I went with Parker. I rank them higher than Westbrook and Gore because of their past knee injuries.

fixed. :brush: 75 out of 148 total voters disagree with your opinion here. If you want to bring facts and reasons as to why you think these 75 people are wrong I welcome that. But your comments disparaging this exercise don't hold any water.

Right now Ronnie Brown are tied in voting with several others getting a lot of votes as well. After the top 5 the picture appears to have become less clear. Will see if more votes make it any clearer.

Ronnie Brown is the choice here. The Dolphin OL doesn't blow any holes for him and it is rare he busts through the line untouched to the 2nd level like most of the other backs at this point. When Ronnie receives average run blocking he will be a force. He is more talented than Steven Jackson IMO. The stats show SJ right now, but next year people who are following the points rather than logic will be disappointed.

You can apply the same logic to McGahee.

Why, because the O Line is magically going to correct itself?That unit, for the most part, has been in tact all year. What's going to change next year to create average run blocking?

Plus, you have to take into consideration the Ricky factor.

Sorry to disappoint you, but this is logic.

 
Really surprised with all the Ronnie Brown love. No way does he make my list above Gore, Parker, or K. Jones. This guy can have 10 carries for 2 yds...I don't a guy like that as my #1 pick if I'm at 1.6. I need a guy there who can score consistently.

I went with Gore.

so are you going to explain why a young rb who has shown that he is a STUD running and receiving the ball should not be #3 or are you just going to bicker about the list?
 
I don't have any issue with anyone that disagree's with what the consensus votes for. Like I allready said I welcome reasoned debate and discussion of opinions of these players and rankings in these threads.

What I don't like and take issue with is statements that these polls are wrong/stupid/silly/a joke/garbage ect. just because you may not agree with the results.

The results of these polls are what they are. They are what the majority of the people who participate in them have voted for. Those are the facts. Right or wrong. If you disagree with what the majority thinks then ask youself how can I use this information?

If I own Steven Jackson and I do not really believe he is as valuable as a majority of people think he is according to this poll then right away I am thinking to myself sell high. I may have not even realised how much people value this player until then. If the LT owner in my league values Steven Jackson as high as the people who voted for him in this poll then maybe I can trade Jackson for LT pretty close to straight up. If I don't value Jackson that high then I might not have even thought I could do somthing like that. On the flip side if I think McGahee or whoever is a great player but the majority doesen't according to the results of these polls then guess who I am going to try to buy low in the near future?

Frank Gore looks to be winning the 6 slot now. Will let this run for awhile longer and see if he stays on top or not.

 
Bia, thank you for doing these polls. Many appreciate them. Even if a few do not, remember many of us like them.

 
Theses threads are awesome.

In fact, they should be sticky.

It's very interesting to see how rankings have shifted among the commuinity. Keep up the good work.

 
The sour#### on this thread is a pretty well-known malcontent who has rarely, to my knowledge, posted anything positive in the ST. It's always the same garbage. Bia, these polls are great and outstandingly informative for those of us playing dynasty (which will always be my preferred format - - I play redraft too but dynasty is so much more fun).

As for the poll, I think it's solid so far. I voted Gore after some thought. I don't trust Brown at all, and the poster above who said that he doesn't trust the Steelers not to draft an RB is spot-on. I think they will. Parker is also an excellent candidate to wear down very, very quickly.

:thumbdown: Mostly in tact? You obviously are not watching Dolphin games. The season started with their 3rd string guard after two injuries late. There have been 3 different starters at LT. There has been a rotation in place at every spot but LG and now he is injured. Macintosh didn't start in any rotation and then was moved to RG and is now the starting LT. Hudson Houck knows what he is doing and the line is getting back to mediocre. Withe normal health and an attention to the lien in the offseason I would expect more room for Ronnie.

BTW, I would agree the same argument could be made for Mcgahee which is why I have McGahee ranked higher than most for dynasty.

The key is projecting BEFORE it happens otherwise you are only one of the lemmings.

 
I went with Addai... no other back on this list has the full compliment of skill player talent that Addai has. Indi is just now starting to realize the talent they found with their draft pick, and he'll be the feature RB, moving forward.

I imagine the argument might be the that Manning to Harrison/Wayne/Clark/etc. takes too many points away from the RB at the goal line. Moreover, Addai hasn't been an overwhelming receiving threat this year.

I contend that Addai's gaining Dungy's and Manning's trust with each game and will be a viable option at the goal line next year. Also, Addai has very nice hands and, again, will be trusted more by Manning the the future.

Especially in PPR leagues, I like Addai heading into 2007.
