Conn’s Week 12 Rankings: Ricky Bein’ Ricky
* Subject to change, but since I’m out of town – doubtful.*
The Dolphins draw the Bills this week, which is an automatic Top 5 placement for the opposing running back. This week it earns Ricky Williams top billing. Adjust accordingly for updates regarding Cedric Benson/Bernard Scott and-or Michael Turner/Jason Snelling. This, by the way, does not include any Thursday Turkey Day games, a few of which landed in my top five…. Stay tuned for my expert entry and breakdown.
