Some of these rankings are fairly accurate, but slaton a tier 2? He should not be on this list, he is a top 10 back. Now Pierre Thomas is not even healthy, I understand hes going against detroit but I doubt he will start, Reggie Bush is the guy you should start over thomas he’ll get the bulk of the carries and be a dangerous receiver out of the backfield. Kevin Smith should be ranked a little higher, definitely above “no knees” McGahee, hes not the ravens starter even. Why is Michael Bush on this list? McFadden will not get injured this year and he will tear the chargers defense apart.

So, where is Chris Johnson? I think you should start posting the Tier 1’s as well, just to avoid confusion.
