BTW, just so it's out there now, I won't be doing tiebreakers; if any RB is within 3% of the top choice, I'll be listing them as 8a and 8b (maybe even 8c)

KJ and Lenny are close, but I'd rather the guy with more talent even though he has been oft-injured thus far. KJ (FWIW, my first KJ vote, for you Bronco).

 
My head is telling me Lendale, but my gut tells me Norwood. I'm only going with LenDale being it's non-PPR.

 
Went with Jamal. He finished 5th this year and nothing has changed for him. I'd rather have 3 years of Jamal than 5 years of anybody else on the list(with the possible exception of F.Jones.)

 
I finally went KJ. He put up some great numbers when given a chance last year so I think the talent is then. Its just a question of health and how the coaches use him.

I think Lewis only has 1 year left. Atlanta really looks like they'll be getting a new RB this year so there goes Norwood's value. And Tennessee just doesn't seem happy with Lenwhale. Edge will in all likelihood be in RBBC this year.

So its just getting too hard to vote anymore without knowing where all the rookies end up.

you're right on the money here. so many questions with all of the options left. That's why I took lewis. He is the only one that I think is a lock to put up a great season maybe two. There are just too many questions with the other backs. Post draft we might feel a little differently on Rice, Jones, and Johnson though but it depends on where they land.
 
I'm curious; are the KJ voters all owners?

I ask because I've never owned him but he holds very little appeal to me. He has had a list-franc and now a ACL injury and has had a very hard time staying healthy in general. I own the White/ Chris Henry combo in one of my Dynasties (non ppr) and there is no way I would consider trading White for KJ.

I guess you are happy with 1100 with no competition behind him. No, Christina Brown and Chris Henry are not competition. Titans have already discussed bringing in a different RB. Why? White's 3.6 ypc and inability to perform in the passing game (whether catching or protection) doesn't sit well with coaches/ownership. I own KJ in a league, and White in another league. I am not actively seeking to deal KJ, as his value is as low as it will ever get, and on the flipside, I am trying to move White if an owner is willing to pay fair value. As I mentioned earlier, give me talent over mediocrity. I will take a gamble that the law of numbers with injuries will not hit KJ again. Modern medicine makes him a buy low in my eyes. He was fine after the Lisfranc, and it isn't like ACL = end of career.

I think everyone is a little biased towards their own players. I didnt draft KJ but got him as a balancer for a larger trade. I'd trade him for alot of players, but Lenwhale isnt one of them. I just dont think he'll be a starter in another year or 2.

No you're right; it better to go with the 4th year guy who hasn't been able to amount more than 186 carries in any one year of his career so far and has had a plethora of injuries.And lets see if the Lions don't bring in a decent RB this year to potentially replace Jones... I think it's as good as guaranteed.

Very possible Jones has to fight for a job, but I could see that happening to White also. Both guys have question marks. I think Jones is a much better talent but cannot stay on the field. White is *okay* but needs lots of carries to be productive and doesn't look like a home run threat. He's a plodder, and while he may have a great career he could just as easily be replaced.

Fair enough; I just think Jones has run out of chances.In the interest of full disclosure, I voted Lewis anyway (who I do not own in any league). Cleveland is looking like a nice situation.
 
This string of polls is fast becoming redundant. Burner Turner and some of the rookies would post higher if we started over @ #1.

My pick here would be Bradshaw. Personally I'd have taken him ahead of Jacobs and by a wide margin. He's the better of the 2. You can't ignore Graham's production, and I don't see wheels on the Cadillac any more. While I don't personally like LunchPail White, he's next. KJ just hasn't shown his reliability yet, and age works against Lewis. After those five, probably the rooks, Rice, Felix or Matt Forte, depending who lands in the best situation. Next Edge or T Jones with very limited dynasty value because of such high mileage. I don't see Chris Joihnson, or Norwood even in the top 35.

The water is getting alot muddier with the remaining RB's. Depending on my current roster, i would probably lean towards Jamal Lewis. He is in a potent offense, and should put up good #'s for the next 1-2 years....usually in a dynasty i would avoid the older back, but the other options aren't that appealing. Lendale/KJ/Graham are also very close for me, and could easily go with one of them.
