A really good year for rookie-only drafts got even better as a result of the Benson cut. There are now FIVE rookie RBs that look certain to get enough carries to be fantasy football worthy in 2008.
The other Adrian Peterson is a sleeper now as well, but Matt Forte will get a long look as Chicago’s main RB now that Benson is gone. McFadden, Stewart, Kevin Smith and Mendenhall are obviously the other top rookie RBs.
There are also several other rookie RBs in backup roles that could have an impact in future years, and are good as handcuffs this year; Felix Jones, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, Steve Slaton and Ryan Torain.
We predict Jamaal Charles and Tashard Choice are going to be fantasy busts without major injuries in front of them.
