julius jones seems to be worth the risk...he could be one of those explosive rookie backs like freddy

i like garner reuniting with gruden tho i bet ill be the only one on this string to support garner

and lee suggs can play for sure and willie green is a mess so suggs is a pretty safe bet compared to the other guys on your risk

dunn/duckett will eternally cancel each other out. brown and eddie who knows how that will end up. buckhalter prob wont start. thomas jones has been given way too many chances to prove himself. and shipp, like the rest of the world, will be unable to run in zona.

Well, let me just say I must have a completely different take on the upcoming season than the guys who posted before me:

T Jones - easily the best sleeper of the group, but no love for CHI I guess.
TJ Duckett - breakout candidate. Will see much more of the ball than Dunn.
Shipp - He'll start, and dont be suprised if he has a solid yr.
Garner - Still will be on bad end of RBBC - no TDs
JJ - Rookie RB in a poor offense.
KJ - RBBC until further notice

Id stay away from TEN because of the RBBC uncertainty.
Id stay away from CLE because of the uncertainty and terrible schedule.

Marcell Shipp
Charlie Garner
Correll Buckhalter


These would be my three picks.
When it comes down to as many question mark players as these, I look to veterans. Let's be real: rookies are a crap shoot. Boldin was not drafted in any leagues last year, and look where he ended up.
Not that the coach's word means anything, but talk from Dennis Green about Shipp is positive, and that's better than him saying they have no run game
Garner, re-united with Gruden, will be ok. He was nothing stellar last season, and he won't be stellar this season, but he will be an o.k. 2nd RB.
Buckhalter simply because he looks the best out of the Eagle's RB committee and will hopefully gets some more looks.

Will one of the rookies out of the list be amazing - who really knows. That's where jumping on the free agent market is key.
Anything can happen on any given Sunday.
