From this group, I like Mendenhall and Stewart, the rookies the most.

Stewart has the most potential, at least this season. I'll be curious to see if Felix Jones can get enough playing time in Dallas. And it will be interesting to see how Oakland screws up their use of McFadden.

I won't except (sic) Taylor to rack up 1,100 yards again, but he's definitely the most talented of the group. Stewart and Mendenhall could be stars, and will probably get more opportunities, but Taylor is the best running back of the backups.
