Fantasy Football 2006: Top Running Back Picks
As the 2006 fantasy football season approaches, it's time to focus on a crucial decision for fantasy football managers: selecting the top running back. Let's explore the top contenders?"Shaun Alexander, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Larry Johnson?"and help you make an informed choice for your draft.
LaDainian Tomlinson: A Risky Bet?
LaDainian Tomlinson had a disappointing season last year, frustrating fantasy owners. Coach Marty Schottenheimer's management of Tomlinson was questionable, as he didn’t consistently make him the focus of the offense. Tomlinson also dealt with injuries, resulting in his weakest season among these top backs.
Additionally, the departure of quarterback Drew Brees leaves Tomlinson with Philip Rivers, who has minimal experience. This could impact Tomlinson’s production. While he’s appealing as a potential pick, he might be better suited for the third spot in your draft.
Shaun Alexander: The Reliable Choice
Shaun Alexander is a solid option, akin to choosing a dependable convertible. With an NFL record of 28 touchdowns last season, Alexander was instrumental in the Seahawks’ Super Bowl run. Despite losing All-Pro guard Steve Hutchinson, Seattle’s offense should remain potent.
One concern is whether the Seahawks will have their division secured by week 15, potentially limiting Alexander’s play during fantasy playoffs. However, with the Cardinals possibly challenging in the NFC West, Alexander may remain competitive throughout the season. His impressive touchdown record makes him a compelling choice.
Larry Johnson: The Ultimate Game-Changer
Larry Johnson is a standout pick for fantasy managers, especially if you have the first draft choice. Despite limited play in six games, Johnson amassed 1,750 rushing yards and 20 touchdowns, alongside 33 receptions for 333 yards and a receiving touchdown.
If Johnson plays all 16 games, he could reach 2,000 rushing yards. The Chiefs will be battling in the competitive AFC West, making Johnson a valuable asset during critical matchups. If you're looking for a dynamic player to lead your team, Johnson is your guy.
Conclusion
For those deciding on the top running back in your fantasy draft, Larry Johnson promises significant upside, while Shaun Alexander offers reliability. LaDainian Tomlinson, although talented, may come with more risk. Make your choice wisely and prepare for an exciting season ahead.
Good luck, and may the best picks win!
