1. Chris Johnson

2. AP

3. Jahvid Best

4. MJD

5. Ray Rice

6. Frank Gore

7. Arian Foster

8. Lesean Mccoy

9. Steven Jackson

10. Jamaal Charles (you guys just wait)

 
Still love for MJD yet nothing for Turner? I'd rather have McFadden than Charles (though I won't put either top 10).

 
Jahvid Best will move down your list. He will hit a rookie production wall especially at the workload his is currently getting.

 
Best at #3? That is a little crazy after just two games. The kid is a rookie and the Lions won't face the Eagles every week.

he WILL? hey, Nostradamus... tell me more, so I can make all the great picks!!!He's not going to put up 40 a week. nor would I take his at 3 in a redraft... but lets be realistic. what has he shown you that even comes close to implying he's going to hit a wall?

suppose your still not buying sanchez either...hahatwo weeks is too early for this guys, it's a meaningless argument, are you going to trade your 2nd pick for a 5 or 6 or 7th right now?

 
I believe I will have a draft next week and post my results. I always join a few mid season leagues so after my drafts we will know.

People make mistakes like this all the time in the drafts.

Marshall caught 21 passes one game and went #1 overall in 1 of my drafts.

Hightower was a PPR machine 1 year after 3 weeks was like 3rd in RB scoring after an 11 catch game went in the 1st round.

Ya both of those teams didn't do so well.

My top 3 remain unchanged in PPR format

CJ, AP, RR

S-Jax may never score I won't ever start him again I don't think. The guy is just on a horrible team.

historical trending should suffice. Name me a rookie running back that has maintained all season long. Don't worry, I will wait. Best does not have the workhorse build nor the injury history to make me believe he will be the one to buck this trend.

Why are all the Best supporters sooooo emotional over him? It's like they're not going to be content and happy until everyone agrees with them that he's the best thing ever. I don't know that I've ever seen a reaction like this in all my years of FF - So bizarre.

That has maintained what? A clean bill of health?

Either you haven't read many threads through the years in the SP or you aren't being honest. People get emotional over players they are excited about all the time.

Nothing he has shown, but rookies often hit a wall because pro season is longer. Especially when the entire offense runs through them.

Havent questioned anyone elses but honestly? I only play PPR as well but you have Bradshaw above Forte, and Gore above SJAX and Best and Rice... and MJD what?

Barry Sanders and Billy Sims from Detroit alone. Then there was Terrel Davis, Curtis Martin, Matt Forte, Frank Gore.

I think you just need to find some better leaguemates.

Chris Johnson, Tomlinson, Peterson, Marshall Faulk, Edge, Eric Dickerson, basically all the greats.

I think Turner is RB2 at best. He was elite for 1 season imo. Can't stay 100% healthy.

I was fortunate enough to end up with R. Rice and M. Turner on both of my money teams, than being said Turner had a very tough first two weeks I think he will have a good year though or I wouldnt have drafted and traded for him.I would rather have McFadden over Charles as well, at least until Bush comes back and still probably then to.

Would Jones Drew be in the top 10? I guess so but barely.

Best supporters are giddy; people who don't own Best are emotional.

Yep, Best owners dont really care what others think. Non Best owners are mad, and think if they can convince their owners(or themselves) that he is no good, that it may somehow become true.
