Free Fantasy Football Running Back
Cheat Sheet
We have ranked the top running backs for the 2009 Fantasy Football draft. Adrian
Peterson is the unanimous first pick in just about every fantasy football
draft out there. Check out our running back draft picks for the 2009
season.
Sleeper Pick: Marion Barber
TO is gone, so look for more carries by backs and more TD's for Barber.
2nd Sleeper Pick: Pierre Thomas
Thomas put up some impressive numbers at the end of last season and proved he could carry the
load.
Potential Bust: Chris Johnson
With Lendale White hogging all the goal line carries, Chris Johnson could
end up being just a yardage back (a.k.a Warrick Dunn)
Waiting in the Wings: Jonathan Stewart
Stewart had a solid rookie year carrying for 10 rushing TD's and is a great
fill-in should anything happen the DeAngelo Williams.
2008 Grade: C
2008 RB
Draft
How many of you out there had DeAngelo Williams, Michael Turner, and Thomas
Jones as your top three picks?
