2012 DRAFT GUIDE

Running Backs:

When it comes to fantasy, the running back position is a top priority. And this will be the case even more this season. The top five or so backs really stand out over the other options. These guys will go fast come draft day, and teams having them will have an advantage over their opponents. There just aren't that many elite backs any more, especially with more teams using a two-back approach.

But there are other options out there with potential after those top guys are gone. Who is the Marshawn Lynch of this season? DeMarco Murray has the capability, playing in a good offense his second season in the league. Roy Helu could surprise, likely becoming the No. 1 back in Washington from day one. So there are options out there after those top guys are gone. Don't give up hope if you don't get an early-round pick.
