  1. Chris Wells, Ohio State (JR)- He'll get a ton of carries this season, he has a great O-line, he plays in a offensive confrence, the way I see it he has all the ingrediants to blow up big this season. Top 3 pick
  2. Ian Johnson, Boise State (SR)- He's gonna get more carries this season considering that the passing game is gonna be pathetic. mid-1st round
  3.    Knowshon Moreno, Georgia (SO)- He will be expected to carry the Bulldogs offense this season, look for him to get around 1,500 yards on the season, Mid to late 1st round
  4. Damion Fletcher, Southern Miss (JR)- With the arrival of the new coach, Larry Fedora, you can expect them to pass alot more, so his unbeilevable numbers from last season will decrease slightly, but they'll still be great, mid to late 1st rounder.
  5. Rodney Ferguson, New Mexico (SR)- He lost all but one of his starters on the o-line, so if he expects to have better stats than the ones from last season, he's gonna have to work harder for his yards. early 2nd round
  6. LeSean McCoy, Pitt (SO)- great season last year, and now he's back for more, he'll get more carries after the departure of his starting QB, He would be higher, but he lost all buttwo starters on his o-line, so look for him too add about 200 yards to his rushing totla from last season, early 2nd round.
  7.  Arian Foster, Tennessee (SR)- he's gonna get a ton of carries this year, he got his whole o-line back, and he's going for the tennessee all-time rushing record, if he wasn't in the SEC, he'd be in my top 3, mid-2nd round.
  8.  Harvey Unga, BYU (SO)- He's gonna get alot of carries inside the 20 this season, but since he has a great QB, I see his yards decreasing slightly, but his TD's increasing. late 2nd to early third.
  9.  Eugene Jarvis, Kent State (JR)- This guy would be in my top 5, but he has a senior at QB, so that means less caries, and he lost all but one starter on the o-line, so He'll get around 1,400 yards, great steal in the mid 3rd to early 4th
  10.   Marlon Lucky, Nebraska (SR)- Pelini has made it apparent that he wants to get back to running the ball more, so look for his stats to increase lot from last season, mid 4th rounder
  11.  Noel Devine, West Virginia (SO)- I'm not buying all the hype that is around this kid, facts are that he is gonna have to carry this West Virginia rushing game and he has never been asked to do that before and there's a huge difference than coming in once a series for the starter and getting a big play and having to be a work horse back. Late 4th rounder.
  12.  DeMarco Murray, Oklahoma (SO)-The kid is a PLAYER, and behind the unbeleivable o-line that Oklahoma seems to produce every year, look for him to have a great season, early 5th rounder.

 Sleeper- Ryan Mathews, Fresno State (SO)- He had almost 1,000 yards last season as a part time starter, and this season he is gonna be the leader of this offense, I see him being capable of 1,500+ yards this season, if he's till there n the 5th GET HIM.

Nothing happened to Pitt's starting QB. They're returning Bill Stull who was their starter last year before he got injured in the first game.

July 23, 2008  02:37 PM ET

yeah, but he wasn' the starter for the majority of last season

July 23, 2008  02:59 PM ET

Stull was replaced by Kevan Smith, a red-shirt freshman, who was then replaced by Pat Bostick, a true freshman.

That list is basically perfect for Fantasy football, I'd add Javon Ringer, James Davis, and Joe McKnight, but that is just me.

There are too many good RB's in USC to lock in and pick one as the top 12 RB's picked

Ian Johnson is still in college? I thought he was a senior last year.

July 23, 2008  05:03 PM ET

no, Junior

July 24, 2008  12:29 AM ET

I thought he was a senior last year too.

July 24, 2008  03:32 PM ET

Marlon Lucky will be the best pick.

how can you not put lucky at the top?....75 receptions over 700 yds receiving and 1,000 rush yards?
