3rd Tier Runningbacks Start At Your Own Risk(Big Payoff or Big Fall):
Thomas Jones - We think he will be great this year, but we want to see one game before we make any final decisions. He is a must start in our book.
Larry Johnson - Playing against New England is no picnic and I think they will be passing all day. He could see some daylight if KC plays it right.
Darren McFadden - Not sure how many carries he will get in the first game. Fargas will start, but we expect MaFadden to get at least 10-12 carries, so he could be worth a look at. We say wait one game if you can.

4th Tier Runningbacks That You Must BENCH:

Warrick Dunn
Matt Forte
Edgerrin James
Ronnie Brown
Selvin Young
Ryan Grant
