1.Larry Johnson: Has become a better runner in the red zone and will flourish now that he finally gets the chance to be the No. 1 guy._________________2. Shaun Alexander: Durable and doesn't get enough respect. He's always been a major force in the red zone and he'll have another impressive year._3. LaDainian Tomlinson: Gets banged up more than Alexander and might not score as much as Johnson will in 2006.____________________________4. Tiki Barber: His age (31) is an overrated number when you consider he has only been a true full-time featured back for the past four years.________5. Edgerrin James: His yardage numbers might drop a bit in Arizona, but he should continue to score often as he erases the Cardinals' red-zone problems.___________________________________________________ 6. Clinton Portis: He finally became comfortable in the Washington offense last season, and you can expect a full season of terrific totals in '06._______7. Peyton Manning: He's the only surefire player at his position to post outstanding numbers every year, even if he doesn't come close to his 2004 totals._____________________________________________________ _8. LaMont Jordan: He's a versatile standout who gets touches near the goal line and has the potential to rush for 1,300 yards._____________________9. Rudi Johnson: He has registered two consecutive seasons of 1,400-plus yards and 12 TDs. He's not glamorous, but the numbers are all you need to see._______________________________________________________1 0. Steve Smith: With Keyshawn Johnson now taking some defensive attention away from him, Smith should certainly have another huge year.
