NFL preseason is winding down which means the upcoming fantasy football season is almost here! As you prepare for your draft, don't forget to pick up your copy of Athlon Sports' fantasy football magazine and check out the positional rankings and other content on the site.

Athlon Sports 2018 Fantasy Football Magazine

This is not my final set of rankings, but it's never too early to start looking ahead and start your draft preparation. Aside from Saquon Barkley, the 2018 draft class features several other intriguing running backs, but each carries plenty of uncertainty along with their respective potential.

No rookie is ever a sure thing, and I tend to rank them according to this mindset. Sometimes it's the wrong approach (see Alvin Kamara last season) while other times it is correct (I was not high on Samaje Perine, who by and large disappointed).

Either way, this is just another reminder that the 2018 fantasy football season will be here before you know it. These rankings will be updated regularlay as part of the fantasy content you can expect to find here at AthlonSports.com.
