You can see in the Running Back rankings that there is a very sharp drop in talent toward the middle, anyone beyond that point really isn't ideal to have as a starter. But on the Wide Reciever side, there is talent all over the place. Lots of gambles in the later part of the list, but each of them could break.
It will prove to be another damn crazy year, but we are seeing a blatant shift to the passing game, even for teams that were once very run-heavy like the Steelers and Ravens.
Feel free to ask any questions here, or point out if I left someone off the list that you think should have made it.
So yeah, here we go...
