DYNASTY: 2008 RB Class (1 Viewer)

-jb-

Footballguy
Darren McFadden, Steve Slaton, Felix Jones, Teshard Choice, Mike Hart, Ray Rice, Jonathan Stewart, Chris Johnson, James Davis, Jamal Charles, Justin Forsett, etc.

McFadden and Slaton seem to be H&S above the rest...but do you see anyone else making a splash in the NFL? Would like to start watching out for some guys now (my dynasty RBs are the suck). Who's your dark horse and why?

McFadden is the clear RB1 and the only back who should go in the top 10. I expect Jonathan Stewart to enter the draft and be taken as the RB2 in the first round. He might not be a better player than Rice and Slaton, but he has a much better build and he's having a big season. He's Chris Henry with production. The NFL will fall in love with him and someone will draft him in the first. Bank on it. Slaton should be a late first rounder or an early second rounder. He could go higher than that if he blows up at the combine. Rice will fall to the 2nd or 3rd based on size/speed concerns. He probably won't do all that well at the combine.James Davis and Felix Jones should be drafted sometime on the first day. Tashard Choice has probably played his way into the first day.The jury's still out on the rest of these guys. I don't think Mike Hart's game will translate to the NFL. I get a little bit of a JJ Arrington vibe from Forsett, although he's shown me some flashes as of late.

:confused: Good to see someone being realistic about things. I've read a lot how people are calling this such an amazing RB class with multiple 1st round talents when in reality the only 100% sure lock in the 1st is McFadden. Also a few of the juniors will stay in school further thinning out the class.I also agree with you that Stewart will be the #2 RB in the class, although some team might fall in love with Slaton's versitality and could take him pretty high.All in all it will be much like any other year. A couple first rounders, a few more 1st day guys, and the rest 2nd day longshots to ever become anything useful as far as FF is concerned.
