Who are the top 10 RBs for the rest of the season (1 Viewer)

Rounders

Rounders

Footballguy
Here's mine:

1 - LT

2 - LJ

3 - Parker

4 - Addai

5 - Westbrook

6 - AP

7 - Gore

8 - Alexander

9 - McGahee

10 - Bush

Close: R.Brown, Portis, James

 
I think you gotta put Ronnie Brown at like 7, but otherwise not bad. I'd also flip-flop LJ and AD. Peterson is sick. Simply sick.

Also would consider Lamont Jordan as it appears he is healthy. Dude is playing well this year.

Mine:

LT

AD

Addai

Westy

Parker

LJ

Ronnie Brown

Gore

Lamont Jordan

Alexander

This looks good to me, although I'd reorder to this:LTAddaiADPFWPRonnie BWestyLJ (has good chance to move up list)McGaheeEdgeGore...and I'd say MB3 and Jacobs have the best shots to crack it

#10 - Frank Gore - San Francisco's offense is DOA, but an easy schedule the rest of the way helps him which includes St. Louis, Arizona, Atlanta, New Orleans, Cincinnati, and Cleveland

#9 - Reggie Bush - He's getting all the touches now, and whether or not the Saints turn it around record-wise, they're still eventually going to start scoring point. Two games against Atlanta, as well as games against San Fran, Arizona, and Philadelphia helps.

#8 - Ronnie Brown - He's the top back now, and Lemon looking good helps, but two games against New England, and games against Pittsburgh, the Giants, and Baltimore may cut his production back a little

#7 - Joseph Addai - If he's healthy, he's money in that offense. Manning isn't really throwing those one yard TD passes anymore which means more scoring opportunities for Addai.

#6 - Maurice Jones-Drew - He was non-existent before two weeks ago, but Jacksonville seems to be working him more into the offense, and Jones-Drew is finally getting his big play bursts back. Add to that, two games with the Colts, who he ravaged last year, as well as New Orleans, Buffalo, Oakland, and Houston (who he dominated today) left on the schedule and he's a likely candidate to continue his breakout.

#5 - Brian Westbrook - Westbrook's man drawback has always been his health, but the entire Philadelphia offense runs through him. Add to that, that McNabb is starting to look a little more settled and he could be primed to rack up a lot of total yards.

#4 - Larry Johnson - He started slow, but he's coming around as well. In this case, two with Denver, one with Indianapolis, one with Oakland, one with Detroit, and one with the Jets should boost his production and some of the LJ of seasons' past should re-emerge.

#3 - Adrian Peterson - The guy is a flat out stud and can do it all. The only reason he's not #1 for the rest of the season is because defenses will start keying in on him even more, and until Tavarias Jackson proved he can make them respect the pass, Peterson's production could get a little more sporadic.

#2 - Willie Parker - FWP has a knock over schedule the rest of the way and is running as strong as ever. Two with Cincy, one with Cleveland, the Jets, Miami, and St.Louis fixes to make him a force the rest of the way.

#1 - LaDanian Tomlinson - He's baaaaaaaack...and so are the Chargers. Whether they go anywhere, remains to be seen, but they should finish out the rest of the season strong. A much easier second half schedule should help.

Did the Bears not "key on" Peterson? Nor the Falcons, Lions, Chiefs and Packers before them? Look, your point was also a concern of mine. But running behind the left side of that line, he will get his even though Jackson is absolutely horrible. Talent wins out in the end.
 
I might be tempted to consider Jacobs, if last weeks performance was an indication. I'll be watching tomorrow night to see if he can build upon that performance. If so he could crack that top 10.

In one league I have 3 of these guys (LJ, ADP, MJD)In another I have none (SJax, A. Green & Portis)
 
Lotsa hype around ADP. Let's see how he does against Dallas next week before he not only cracks the top 10 but tops it. Between finally facing a good run defense, likely playing from behind, and the injury risk of facing a high flying aggressive defense with an upright rushing style I see a letdown game for ADP. Great player sure but his schedule so far hasn't been the hardest to date.

Chicago?GB?KC?are you kidding me?
 
Not a Marion Barber owner, but I think he could make the list. Romo making some bad decisions lately, Barber looking great, and JJ pulling into more of a support role, at least as far as I can see.

 
Additionally, can Ronnie/Westy/Gore/McGahee hold up? Addai's injury? Rudi Johnson a decoy this week? Dominic Rhodes not showing up at all this week and Jordan magically somewhat healthy already?

I'd toss in Jordan and Lynch into the mix.

Intersting subject I guess, but...it's early. Speculation threads are fun though.

Barber had 8 carries for 47 yds, JJ 6 carries for 51. Barber had more touches but it still looks pretty close for now at least.

Good call, and I could be way off, but wasn't it Barber early and Jones late when the game was out of hand? JJ looked like more of a kill the clock guy. Again, could be wrong.
 
WOW,

everyone that didn't have Peterson in their top 10 needs to go to a bar on sundays or get the ticket. He is right now a top 5 RB in the NFL. The left side of that line will give him HUGE holes for weeks to come.

If you don't believe it, try trading for him right now. he is getting only 70% of the carries and continues to excel.

Addai

AD

FWP

8. MJD

9. Ronnie

10. Jamal Lewis

almost: Maroney, Gore

 
Im gonna throw a sleeper top 10 RB out there:

Jamal Lewis- Cleveland seems to be a top offense, they have some great passing weapons so defenses wont be able to stack the box, and they have a good Oline. Plus look at this schedule:

Bye

@STL

SEA

@PIT

@BAL

HOU

@ARI

@NYJ

BUF

@CIN

7. L. Jordan

8. R. Brown

In no order really sort of.

LT

Joseph Addai/ Kenton Keith

AD (Adrian Peterson)

Ronnie Brown

Brian Westbrook

Lamont Jordan

Frank Gore

Marshawn Lynch

Willie Parker

Willis McGahee.

I've been very impressed with how Marshawn Lynch has played against a brutal early schedule. It gets much easier later on and I believe he'll capitalize. A good buy kinda low candidate.

Thanks, I was wondering if you were wondering :lmao: I thought it was somewhat relevant to note the variances between pre-season and current rankings of players. Before the season, both of those teams looked solid, but one has come up all roses, while the other has really struggled.

I'm sorry, I thought we were free to express any interesting tidbits in the shark pool, but apparently the shark pool police (aka tribecalledjeff) didn't think my info was relevant enough. I apologize to any and everyone who may have been hurt by my obvious lack of judgement. Carry on.

 
LT

Addai

Westy

LJ

AP

FWP

Edge (can't believe how few lists he's on)

Bush

R. Brown

L. White (if VY is ok)

How long did it take you to find this ancient post? I guess it's worth it though since you actually predicted something right in the Guppie Pool!
