Five W/ The Guy
The Guy just finished up fantasy draft 3 out of 5 and has been noticing a trend with some value runningback picks late in the draft. Now don't take my words out of context here these are just some guys you can late in the draft who could bring you some value i'm not saying go into the season with these guys as your starters. These guys have been available between rounds 6 and 12 and could do some good for your team.
1) Mike Tolbert- First off this guy is built like a wrecking ball and because of that will be scooping up all short yardage situations especially around the endzone. I would honestly much rather have Tolbert on my squad over Ryan Mathews because Tolbert is gonna finish with probably ten touchdowns and like 600-700 yards if he is splitting the touches between Mathews. Mathews has just not been impressive to me so i think Tolbert could be a steal.
2) Willis Mcgahee - Much like Tolbert he is going to steal valuable goal line carries away from his feature back much like he did in Baltimore. Mcgahee has been falling late and could be good as a plug in type of guy. If Moreno gets injured Mcgahee could be huge.
3) Joseph Addai - Addai has been falling and falling deep which is a surprise to The Guy. Addai has had his share of struggles but he is still the starter in Indy and when healthy can be a beast. It was not too long ago that Addai was being picked in the first round of fantasy drafts. If he stays healthy I think he is going to have a pretty good year.
4) Shonn Greene - Greene has not been falling as far as these other guys but you can still get him in the middle of the draft. Tomlinson is not gonna have as big of a factor on the Jets as last year and that means more carries for Greene and I think he will have a coming out party this year but hopefully its not against the Pats!
5) Tim Hightower- I like this guy for a few reason. 1) He has looked good in camp and will probably be the starter for the Skins. 2) He was pretty good for the Cardinals and 3) He reminds me of my favorite TV music teacher Steve Hightower. Shut up Bullethead!
P.S. how awesome would it be to get out of music class with Mr. Hightower and then go home to hang out with Mr. Cooper?
