Honestly, I'd say it's pretty similar to what we've already speculated. Ball and Bell would probably be the top guys since they are virtually promised to be lead guys this season and there is no guarantee if/when the rest of this motley RB crop will ever start. Bernard and The Green Bay guys figure to be involved this year but it's too early to tell exactly how much.

Christine Michael probably has more value in long term formats and I was only partly joking about Lattimore. If (HUGE if) he can ever get back to 100%, he could potentially wind up being the steal of this draft.

Rankings could come down to current depth at the position, though. If you have a deep backfield and can wait for a guy to develop, a guy like Michael may be a better choice than he would be for a team that needs immediate help.

Anyone know anything about Steelers WR Marcus Wheaton? Supposedly a Mike Wallace clone. Could be a nice pick for those of us that play 14+ keeper leagues

Not as fast Wallace but a better route runner.
