Top 50 Position Battles: Thomas vs. Wright

# 32. Bills Backup Running Back – Anthony Thomas vs. Dwayne Wright
Rookie Marshawn Lynch should win the starting job, leaving last year’s surprisingly serviceable backup Anthony Thomas fighting fourth-round pick Dwayne Wright for handcuff duties. Wright could be a short-yardage back in time.
The winner of this battle is worth drafting in deeper leagues. Marshawn Lynch looks great on paper, but we won’t know for sure until September Sundays. Heck, Bills.com isn’t convinced yet that Dick Jauron won’t go committee.
All that said, I wouldn’t touch A-Train in drafts until we know the score. Wait for a clear handcuff to Lynch to emerge in August.

* If Daunte Culpepper had an agent (other than Gandhi), he'd tell his client that Tampa would be a great fit. If Gruden can't scare some fundamentals into Culpepper, I'm not sure who could. And its not like Jeff Garcia is a long-term option.
Dynasty league owners of Culpepper should be hoping for this match.
* Looks like another fun commute tonight. Thanks for stopping by today.
