It might be a slight reach, but I really like Forte here.

I can envision Forte as a feature back as early as his rookie season if he lands with the right team.

I don't have the same confidence in Chris Johnson or Jamaal Charles who might be better suited for a RBBC.

Gets tough here, so we need some more votes

Johnson's nearly doubling any other player - it's safe to close it and move on. Looks like 7-12 will have to wait a week to get sorted out.

I think after the draft the order will change. Someone not in the top 6 will move up into it. And someone like Johnson could move up to pick #4 if he goes to the right place. I think there's a chance he goes in the 1st.

Why is everybody so high on Chris Johnson? He will be a valuable NFL player with his kick return and pass catching skills and will be an exciting change-of-pace-back. That's why I won't be surprised if some team picks him in the first round next weekend...

But this vote is about fantasy football. I don't like his fantasy outlook, especially in fantasy leagues that don't reward points for receptions and kickoff return yardage. Unless Johnson gets drafted by a team like Denver or Houston, I wouldn't pick him in the top 10 of a fantasy draft.

I don't like him that much either, but if the guy gets picked in the 1st round then some guppy out there is going to select him too early. And if you honestly think you wouldn't draft Johnson in the top 10 of your rookie draft, then you are not that good at this thing called fantasy football.

If he goes to Indy where do you expect him to be selected by non-Addai owners?

8th-10th rounds of initial drafts. 6th overall in rookie drafts.

I fully expect him to be an outstanding 3rd down back. I have every intention of taking him #5. (I do play .5 PPR) A guy that can catch 50 balls for 500/2 with an additional 3-400 yards rushing and 2-3 can make a great fill-in/bye week/flex guy. I'm not expecting to have an every week starter out of a 5th or 6th rookie pick, but he certainly has the potential to become an every-down back and earn a starting job on my fantasy team sooner rather than later. He'll likely be a late 1st or early 2nd round pick and if it happened to be Seattle, I think he could beat out J.Jones as the every-down back by the end of the season. Detroit? Starter. Denver? Starter as soon as T.Henry gets stressed out about another kid, takes a hit from the bong and misses 3 weeks w/ a sore throat. Tennessee? I'm sure L.White would be the goal-line back, but Johnson could start there by season's end too.He'll be the fastest RB in the NFL, and with the 2nd best hands in his draft class regardless of position (to M.Kelly). He shows decent vision and patience, and pretty fair power for his stature/skills.
