Hmmm...I wonder who the Roothogs will draft?

Echoes of Kansas, yes? Because from what I've watched of this dude, he's so fast he hits a hole and is in the second level before anybody can even think of touching him. I had the same thought as Mike the second time I watched Johnson and realized he was for real, this guy is what Bush was hyped to be.

I'm calling it now, Offensive ROY and I dare anybody to say otherwise.

D MAC! Looks like I just said otherwise.......

He is going earlier in each draft I have been in.

Chris Johnson looks like the real deal. I love the Titans and the Raiders this year, because I'm expecting them both to play with chips on their shoulders. DMac is serious, Jamarcus Russell has one helluva cannon, and Vince Young has enough weapons around him now to shine. We'll see if he does, but I'm going to keep my eyes on these two teams

I have 40,000 in vCash that says you're wrong.

I like both DMac and Johnson. I am likely one of the few who would have selected Johnson as early as 2nd in Rookie drafts. I say second though, because I would select DMac first and he is the one I would put my money on for the "Win". I have Johnson in the "place", and Ryan as the "show". If he can get it going at all, Turner and Norwood are gonna make his job much easier. I have fallen off the wagon for Stewart, Mendenhall, Forte, or Smith, and even consider Morgan a bigger threat for fantasy impact, in ppr leagues that is.

Infatuation runs amok. Lendale White is no bum. They will form a nice RBBC tandum.

McFadden and Johnson should both improve their respective teams, but Vince Young still needs a WR or two who can catch what he throws at them. Johnson should have a good season based only on how much Tennessee runs the ball, but I don't know that it helps VY just yet.

methinks chris johnson is gonna disappoint a whole lot of people around these parts.

otherwise

If you watched his 2nd preseason game, he nearly had another 60 yd+ run but was clipped just enough by the safety to trip him up. Yea it's just preseason but Johnson just hits the holes so hard and quick. He'll have his chances to shine even with Lendale as the starter. White had only 7 outta 16 games with 20+ carries last year and also missed 3 games the previous year.

It seems like people are either all about this guy or think he will flop.

He won't significantly cut into White's carries. he and crumpler will cause longer possessions and more plays for the whole squad. White will still be very close to double digit TD's and 275+ccarries. Brown will get his 150 touches with 50+receptions. At least this is the way I see it going down. Chris Johnson is a nice #3 Rb in ppr leagues, and White is still a great #2 Rb in all leagues.

Edited to correct name, and total touches

chris brown isnt even on the titans roster. time to see it differently.

also, exactly how many nfl franchises do you think had RBs with 275 and 150 carries last season?
