2.03 - Ryan Torain - RB - DEN

Going for broke in the RB category this year

1.2 - J Stewart
1.4 - M. Forte
2.3 - R Torain

I really like his opportunity in the future years.

Mike Shanahan doesn't like pulling his running back depth chart shockers until training camp anyway. But he clearly is smitten with Torain, "I think he's got first-round ability, I will say that. I really put the whammy on him."

I was thinking of taking him at the 1.12 position but traded back and moved up in the 2nd (For the equal talent WR pool) and picked up another 2nd.

Works out, and now on with the draft!

There are a bunch of RBs at this level who, like the WRs (though maybe with less talent than the WRs), could very well have an impact down the road... or could do nothing.

Denver RBs have had a GREAT history in Fantasy Football (despite Skelator's shinangans!).

Goes to show how great undervalued RBs are in this league - Torain was 5th round pick in the NFL! Still liked him though - Shanahan finds nothing but RB gold.

Nice pickup!

Yah, too bad not too many of them last more than a year or two in Denver!! Hoping this one is different, since I also grabbed him in SAC'd to go with Young.
