Need a little help here…I'm putting together what I hope is my final personal rankings before my draft. Redraft: we only get these players for this year….
How would you rank this three RB's…(1 point per rec./ 1 point every 10 yards/ 6 for a TD)
M. Jones-Drew
T. Jones
T. Henry
I was tossing and turning all night….i need help! LOL How would you guys rank just those three?
Thanks in advance for the input.

Wow, thats a tough one for me too. They are all VERY VERY close in IMO even tough to give them ranking based on small points.
Since its a re-draft:
I think I'd go T. Jones because I think hes going to be THE guy, and we know hes got the tallent to do the job right.
Then I'd go T. Henry because hes proven and hes with Denver. POTENTIAL Super Stud, the reason I put him below T. Jones is simply because it is in fact DENVER and we all know that things rarely are as they appear and you simply just dont know whos going to get the carries.
Finally MJD- soley because its re-draft and because there is just a serious overcrowding of the backfield.
All great picks though.

In a redraft I'd go Henry, T.Jones and MJD. Jones overall numbers as the primary back will offset any advantage MJD may have in scoring td's…and I don't believe MJD will score like he did last year
Henry is far and away, imo, in the best position. People may worry about Shanhan's mad scientist approach but Henry could have a monster year…not even close in a redraft.

Just to mix it up more, I'd go Jones, MJD and Henry. I rank Henry last here because I'm not sold he can stay healthy or that Shanny sticks with him all season. Jones and MJD are both pretty even in my eyes, although I give the nod to Jones soley because he has no competition for the carries or TDs. MJD's situation is not as crowded as it seems on paper – Fred Taylor is 30 (and fra-g-lee) and Greg Jones is a backup.

Remember this is a PPR league!
I'd go MJD, Thomas and Henry
MJD will be used more this year – he was barely used in the first half of last season, and more carries and more receptions will equal more points (Oh and fragile Fred is NOT making it through the year unscathed)
Thomas is the man on a good offense and will do very well. But I think L Washington will get the third down plays, and eat into his production a bit
Henry is in Denver (the dreaded Shanhan) and has a history of minor injuries keeping his production down
The latter two will be close this year, but this is the way I see it.

QB: A Rodgers, B Roethlisberger, B Quinn RB: M Lynch, F Jackson, M Bush, R Bush, J Charles, G Coffee WR: V Jackson, S Holmes, P Harvin, S Breaston, D Avery, L Murphy TE: H Miller, V Davis, J Finley K: D Akers T: Bears

When it gets this close with players, I usually fall back on who these guys play durring playoff weeks…(with the hope that I'll still be playing)…would this sway any opinions?
Week 14
T. Jones vs. Cleveland
T. Henry vs. KC
MJD vs. Carolina
Week 15
T. Jones @ NE
T. Henry @ Houston
MJD @ Pitt
Week 16
T. Jones @ Tenn
T. Henry @ SD
MJD vs. Oakland

Well, all does for me is give me another reason I'd put MJD a tad below the others, hes got tough D's all 3 weeks.
Henry has good matchups in 14 and 15 but 16 is not very appealing.
Jones I think gets the edge based on those matchups. Clevland, NE, & Tenn are all decent matchups for the Jets.

I'd roll with Thomas Jones. Like the others that have mentioned this, I'm not solid that Henry will play 16 games as the Denver starter. While Jones-Drew is exciting in a PPR format, Jones is the much safter bet all around in a redraft league IMO.

PPR league I take a risk and roll with MJD.
Jones is the safe pick, but I'd take the risk/reward pick and go with this order.
1. MJD
2. Jones
3. Henry

In a dynasty league, Im with ya, but in a redraft league… I like Jones. That said, the NFL Strength of Schedule Data was posted by Ballgame this week and things look good for the Jags' rushing attack in 2007.
