It’s a little early, but I just signed up for my fantasy league today. Our draft is about a month away, but it’s never too early to start thinking about fantasy draft picks. Anyway, it’s key to take a running back in the first round. All that stuff about taking a Peyton Manning or Steve Smith in the late first round is bull shit. In fact, I always draft running backs with my first two picks, and I’ve finished in the money for the last 3 years. Trust me, draft a running back in the first round.
That said, as of today, here are my first round picks. They could easily change over the next month or so based on injuries or news, but this is how they stack up today.
1. Larry Johnson KC
2. LaDainian Tomlinson SD
3. Shaun Alexander SEA
4. Clinton Portis WAS
5. Tiki Barber NYG
6. Edgerrin James ARI
7. LaMont Jordan OAK
8. Rudi Johnson CIN
9. Steven Jackson STL
10. Ronnie Brown MIA
11. Carnell Williams TB
12. Willis McGahee BUF
