WOW, has he really fallen this low? After browsing a draft of site owners, I was shocked to see LJ having been drafted #9....

Has he really fallen this low?
When LJ is threatening to miss the season or at least the first 10 games naturally he is going to drop. As soon as he is signed and in camp he will be back up to #3 or possibly #2.
PFT is reporting they are getting close. If he falls to you anywhere past 3, I would be thanking my lucky stars. He may not have the season he did last year, but how far could he possibly fall?----
Adam Schefter of NFL Network is reporting that the Chiefs and running back Larry Johnson have had contact talks recently that indicate the sides are getting closer to a long-term contract extension.
Schefter reports that the team and the Johnson camp engaged in serious discussions last week, and made good progress Saturday. They expect to keep talking this week.
Per Schefter, the tone of conversations between the two sides has improved since training camp kicked off, and Johnson and the team both want to get a deal done that will have Johnson in a Chiefs uniform when Week 1 of the regular season kicks off. The Chiefs and Johnson had been reported to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $15 million apart on guaranteed money, and that is apparently no longer the case.
Of course, "getting closer" and actually having a signed contract are two very different things, and it's possible that Johnson, his representatives or Chiefs General Manager Carl Peterson will balk at something and bring the talks to a standstill. But for now, there's increasing optimism that a deal could get done.
