The early favorite for the #1 selection in your 2009 rookie-only fantasy football draft is clearly Chris Wells. The guy is a beast. He’s been compared to Jim Brown so even if he does end up getting drafted by a bad NFL team, he will still have a great shot to be the #1 2009 keeper rookie.
They call him “Beanie” even though he’s 6-1, 237 lbs, runs a 4.5 40 yard and is the focalpoint of Ohio State’s top ranked team.
As a sophmore in 2007 he lit up Michigan, at Michigan, for 222 yards (at 5.7 yards a clip) and 2 touchdowns. On a per carry basis that was an off day for him too as he averaged 5.9 yards a carry during his entire sophmore campaign, totalling 274 attempts, 1,609 yards and 15 TDs.
