I know you are not all aboard the Foster train, but below Jerome Harrison? I own them both, and its not even a decision.

I like Foster in redrafts this year, i had him 6 or 7 last week. I just dont like him that much this week in Washington.

Cedric Benson didn't even crack the top 30? He's the Bengals feature back and put up great #s vs. the Ravens last year.

Yep, Buffalo is going to be playing catchup for most of this game. Normally i would say thats a bad thing for a RB, but with captain checkdown at the helm, that should mean Spiller could catch for almost 100 yards.Bush played more snaps than Thomas last week, plus the Saints barely run.Stewart barely played last week, i want to see more from him before i put him too high in my rankings.I just dont like Hightower, not do i like his matchup.Ronnie Brown in Minnesota, no thanks.

I was between him, Hightower and Portis for the last spot, i just dont see Benson doing anything against the Ravens in Baltimore.

I'm a Redskins fan and I love our D, but Dallas ran it really well against us last week. Dallas' problem was that they didn't just stick with the run; otherwise, it would have been a huge day rushing for them. Washington's D is definitely the strength of that team but I'd be shocked if Foster didn't get a 100 yards and a score (as much as I'll be rooting against it! )

I see a good week from Lesean McCoy

Its possible, i liked seeing him being used near the goalline last week. Vick scares me a bit though.

17. Jerome Harrison

Last year against KC he was a stud, only problem is no one with a half a freaking clue in Cleveland knows this guy can beat KC all by his lonesome.

34 carries for 286 yards, three touchdowns (including one to win the game). No wonder Cleveland is a doormat.

That's what I see. Houston has too many weapons and Foster is an upgrade in the running game over Dallas.

I watched this game last year, and i actually wanted to put him higher on this list. Like you said though, who knows how Clevelend will use him. Either way, he should have 100 total yards, with a decent chance at a TD.

I know you are not all aboard the Foster train, but below Jerome Harrison? I own them both, and its not even a decision.

Dallas' problem was that they didn't just stick with the run; otherwise, it would have been a huge day rushing for them. Washington's D is definitely the strength of that team but I'd be shocked if Foster didn't get a 100 yards and a score (as much as I'll be rooting against it! )

That's what I see. Houston has too many weapons and Foster is an upgrade in the running game over Dallas.

Foster would likely be the 4th string RB on that roster.

 

[The Jacket]

Chiefs are better on defense this year. Romeo Crennel has a clue, unlike Clancy Pendergast. Glenn Dorsey is turning into the beast he was drafted to be. Derrick Johnson, Javon Belcher bring the wood.

He's a nice back but he won't get half that many carries this week and probably not 1/3rd of the yardage.

I understand the simple connection, but it's a different year and both teams are different.

 

[the spanker]

Foster would likely be the 4th string RB on that roster.

 

[Insein]

Cedric Benson didn't even crack the top 30? He's the Bengals feature back and put up great #s vs. the Ravens last year.

I noticed him missing from this list. I'd start him over 2nd stringers like Bush, Forsett, and Spiller all day, every day. Benson is a stud. He definitely should have expectations lowered this week but he's still around 15-20 range.

 

[The Jacket]

Gore is too high IMO. The 9ers are clueless and the Saints aren't too bad on defense. They have an aggressive front and will almost certainly be up by 10-14 points early. The 9ers simply won't be able to run all that often, even though they never seem to even if they're ahead.

Gore does have the talent to break off a big play, but I'm not buying him anywhere near 4th for the week.

 

[Insein]

That's what I see. Houston has too many weapons and Foster is an upgrade in the running game over Dallas.

Foster would likely be the 4th string RB on that roster.

Based on the many 200yd rushing performances all 3 of those backs have put up in their entire careers right?

 

[Insein]

My Bold prediction? Jerome Harrison fails to crack 50 yards against the Chiefs Defense.

 

[kutta]

Why is Deangelo so high? I've seen him very high on a few lists this week. I thought he looked pretty good last week, but not good enough to warrant a top 3 finish this week. What am I missing?

 

[ponchsox]

Steven Jackson ranked 12th against Oakland? Explain your reasoning.

If Felix Jones got 30 carries against the Colts last week(without Sanders), he would have ran for 400 yards.

All well and good if he didn't tear his acl before the 5th carry.

He is a talented RB that should see plenty of touches. Although he is unlikely to score a TD, he should put up enough yards to finish around 12.

He is no more likely to tear his ACL than any other RB. I get your point though, that doesnt change the fact that Jones in more talented than Foster.

He definitely has the talent to do it, he has a very good oline, a great matchup at home, and it is my belief that the Panthers are going to ride him into the ground this season before letting him walk at seasons end.Whats not to like?

 

[Go deep]

My Bold prediction? Jerome Harrison fails to crack 50 yards against the Chiefs Defense.

The only way this happens is if he doesnt get the touches. He should get at least 10 though, which means he will go over 50.

I like the 49ers to keep this game close at home, and they will do it by controlling the ball on the ground.

Derrick Johnson was a beast out there Monday, but they are a different team on the road.
