Thats what i was thinking, both Barber and Williams are #2 running backs, Rhodes could possibly be a #1 if he is in good shape, but he is also facing the SD def, and Barber is facing the NE def.

He's playing. Ive been making moves to get him on the cheap before he starts. Oakland leads the league in rushing, and he is going to be coming in right away.

Rhodes may be facing the SD defense, but what does that mean? I took the SD Defense in my Fantasy Draft and dropped them as my Defense after Week 3. This year's SD Defense does not scare me at all.

Rhodes should be healthier than any RB in the league right now, because he has not played or been dinged up. He could have a big day if Lamont Jordan does not play. Could be the Sleeper RB of the week!

My first concern was conditioning. so I did some research. and he's quoted as saying how every practice, they just made him run. How he thought how much running he did was part of the punishment.

I say he's healthy, he's got his legs, and he's anxious to hit somebody.

But god knows it's all quesswork at best.
