How do you rank the rookie rbs...due to teams and situations:
Reggie Bush New Orleans
DeAngelo Williams Carolina
Joseph Addai Indianapolis
Laurence Maronney New England
Lendale White Tennessee


Any sleepers?

Still evaluation all of this mess, but my initial top 3 are

1. Joseph Addai
2. DeAngelo Williams
3. Laurence Maroney

Actually, I see the following:
Addai - even splitting with Rhodes, there will be lots of yards.
Maroney - I think he replaces Faulk first, then Corey when he gets hurt.
Williams - Just the normal Foster injury away...means two weeks tops.
Bush - If McCallister is okay, he will be 3rd down change of pace. If McCallister isn't okay..i would bump Bush to number 3 here.
White - Once he is healthy, and Brown and Henry get hurt again..he will get a shot

Two sleepers:
Calhoun in Detroit - Kevin Jones can't stay healthy, and this kid was a steal where they got him. He could take over, and not lose the job.IMO.
Drew in Jacksonville - He is just as quick as Pearlman, but more durable and stronger up the middle. Heir apparrent to Taylor?
Norwood in Atlanta - kid will be the replace ment for Dunn after his contract expires. Puts Duckett into the bench shed for this year.(thanks Taz for reminder... )

I have them differently. I list them as:

1. DeAngelo Williams
2. Joseph Addai
3. Laurence Maroney
4. Reggie Bush
5. Brian Calhoun
6. Maurice Drew
7. Lendale White
8. Jerious Norwood
9. PJ Daniels
10. Cedric Humes

Re Draft:

1.J Addai
2. D Williams
3. L Maroney
4. R Bush
5. L White

Dynasty:

1. D Williams
2. R Bush
3. L Maroney
4. L White
5. Addai

it could happen.

For Dynasty Purposes I'm putting them like this:
1. D. Williams - Love his situation, and love his talent.
2. R. Bush - Freak of nature, lands on a team with an All-Pro who is coming back from a torn ACL, should be interesting to see how it shakes out.
3. J. Addai - Hit gold with his situation
4. L. Marroney - Heir apparent to CD, long term could be ebtter option then Addai, but will leave him here for now
5. L. White - Just b/c he's #5, doesn't mean I don't see big things. Just may take a year or two to settle in.

Not seeing a whole lot of love for the what was to be the greatest running back to enter the NFL in years. What's up? Where did all the Reggie fans go?

I'm here. I'm savin' up for when he runs off 3 or 4 150 plus total yd. games to open the season.

My league started the draft this morning, I have until 5:35 PM today to make the second pick in a dynasty zealot
league, Bush went #1, not sure which way to go, need a RB of corse, but which 1? I have Caddy,and A.Green, lets here your pick here? Thanks.

My top 5:
Addai
Maroney
Bush
Williams
White

superdave, is your ranking a dynasty league ranking?

I still think Williams outplays Addai in a dynasty league.

For a dynasty league

DeAngelo Williams

Not sure why everyone is so high on Addai.
I think the Colts had to reach to take the best available RB after Moroney and Williams were gone.
I don't think he puts up the same numbers as Edge did.
In a dynasty league, I rank them:

1) Bush
2) Williams
3) Moroney
4) Addai
5) White
6) Calhoun
7) Drew

You've got to figure the NFL scouts know alot more than we do when they draft these guys....in a dynasty league talent will eventually prove more valuable than situation.
sounds to me like alot of guys are blowin' smoke to see if players will fall to them in their rookie drafts. :

we've got to change your name to Mr. Obvious.

Who did ya take??

What Z league you in?

Well, I'm drafting at 1.04 in my league.

I rate the rookies:
1) White
2) Williams
3) Moroney
4) Bush
5) Addai

I really like Lendale Whites situation.
With Chris Brown and Travis Henry, TEN will be a 3 headed monster!

I like the White situation too. Gives him a chance to get his shit together. The competition on this level will either kick start him or bury him. Each of those guys on the list offer up some interesting possibilities. Some are gonna be quick to jump on Addai but I don't think Indy's line is settled enough to take him 1, he will probably be the rookie leader in touches though. Bush is gonna be close and may burn down the house. NO could sneak up on some teams. His contract issues may hold him back. Williams at Carolina is a home run waiting to happen with Foster there. and I like Maroney in NE. I think he's gonna get plenty of carries. I'm not discounting Dillon, but I see this kid getting upwards of 150 carries this year. NE's RBs had 50 or so catches out of the backfield averaging around 9 yards a touch. Maroney should have around 800 total yards and 4 or 5 TDs. For Dynasty I rate them:

1) Williams, because Fox will run the ball.
2) Addai, Indy's pass first run second O will open up the lanes for him. He is the only clear starter of the bunch as a rookie. He could get a lot of touches as Indy's window closes quickly.
3) Bush, because long term he will emerge as the class of this draft.
4) White, he could be around as long as Bettis and just as productive based on what he did at USC beside Bush. Depends on his desire.
5) Maroney, he could have 100-200 touches and is my wild card. Dillon had 700 plus rushing and 180 yards recieving. Faulk had almost 30 catches for over 250 yards. There's a lot of gold there with Brady and that O.
