Welcome back FanSided Fantasy faithful! Chris Aliperto AKA “JuanBond” here to give you yet another NFL Fantasy Football piece for this upcoming 2019 season. Over 20 running backs were drafted back in April, and my goal with this article will be to rank the top 10, relative to their fantasy situation for this upcoming season. 

I know a few NFL Fantasy Football leagues wait until Labor Day weekend to draft, so if you are doing some late scrambling for content, welcome! I am always a fan of drafting rookies in my season-long leagues because the good ones will more often than not present tremendous value relative to where they are drafted.

The best way to figure out which backs will do so is to analyze their particular situation and try to predict where they fit into their new offense. The 2019 draft was loaded with more talent at the running back position in recent memory, and a solid handful of these guys will likely make an immediate impact for fantasy football this season.

As a whole, the rankings are relative to this season, but I feel that all ten of these backs could make an impact depending on what happens with their respective teams. I will start with number ten and we will work our way to number one. Without further ado let’s break down this outstanding class of rookie backs!
