I think there is only one player worthy of the #1 pick in this years fantasy draft (Jamaal Charles), but there are other players who can be possibilities at #1 as well.
Jamaal Charles, KC- Jamaal Charles won the MVP for Fantasy Football last year by a landslide. He’s a fantasy owner’s dream of a dual-threat back, racking up 1,287 yards on the ground and 693 yds through the air. Charles led the Chiefs in rushing, receiving AND receptions. He also had 19 total TD’s that’s right 19. When a running back can get 70 receptions in a season, 1,000+ yards and almost 20 TD’s there’s really no argument on why you shouldn’t take him #1 overall.
Adrian Peterson, MIN- Adrian Peterson will always be a Top-3 pick for however long he plays, but for this season I have him going 2nd or 3rd overall in most drafts. Peterson had a solid season (1,266 yds, 10 TD’s) but nagging injuries kept him from reaching the stellar performance he had 2 seasons ago when he hit 2,000 yards. Unlike Charles, Peterson is not really a threat in the receiving game, but can make up for it with his running. An argument can be made for Peterson at #1 overall, but there a little things that keep him from being a definite at #1.
LeSean McCoy, PHI- Like Charles, McCoy can be a receiving threat, racking up 52 receptions for 539 yds last season. He also can get it done on the ground, running for 1,607 yds and 9 Rushing TD’s. McCoy is very talented and in my opinion shouldn’t go past #2 in most drafts, but he definitely has the potential to go #1 overall and I have him before Adrian Peterson in my Fantasy Top 25. I believe it will come down to McCoy or Charles for the #1 pick in this years draft with Charles having a slight edge.
