1.05 RB Felix Jones DAL
It was either him or Kevin Smith. Smith is probably the unquestioned starter in Detroit and had a stellar year last year, but doesn't have the size or speed to guarantee Detroit won't be drafting another RB in a year or two (especially if Matt Millen applies his "draft the same position 3 years running" strategy). Had to go with the guy who has the potential to be the starter in a year or two if Barber walks. Besides, he gets points for receptions and he's great catching the ball out of the backfield...assuming Wade knows how to properly utilize him.
