Fantasy Football Preview: AFC Running Backs
Above: Another huge season for Thomas Jones? In continuation of my early fantasy overview, I pick up at the running back spot where I left off at the quarterback position; still excited about the fantasy season, but bewildered over all the possibilities that still remain.
