19.
I find it interesting that, right about #19, the quality of RB becomes increasingly shady. I mean, you have Michael Turner (never been a starter), the Auburn twins (Cadillac and Ronnie Brown coming back from major injuries), a career back-up (Betts), etc… and we haven’t even gotten out of the 25!

It's sad
There isn’t much proven, healthy talent at running back anymore.

Ronnie Brown Is top 10 when he is healthy
Ok now this is coming from someone who has watched almost every single NFL football game JuJo has been in, and he most definitely should not be in the top 32. The guy sucks. No Vision. Crumbles on first contact. Poor receiving skills. Although he did improve his blocking skills last year, I’ll give him that. But he is not a starting quality RB, or even an RB you would want as a backup. We definitely upgraded our backfield with the addition of Felix Jones, after watching the first preseason game where Felix played behind a back up o-line that was getting their arses handed to them, I saw more playmaking ability from Felix Jones in that one game than I have seen from JuJo all last year. FeJo has ankle breaking cuts and excellent vision. IMO he already outranks JuJo.

Just Wondering...
With the obvious lack of depth at the RB position in the NFL, why not take some chances in your rankings with guys like Selvin Young and the like?

Mostly
Mostly because they are a ranking of now, not so much when.
