C.J. Anderson- RB

Anderson is one of those players who works hard at what he does and is a very humble guy. I remember when the Broncos lost to the Colts in the Divisional Round, he told the fans how much he was sorry that he let the team down.

By all means, he did not. In fact, he was one of the players who actually fought in that game to win. I will never forget his fourth down run in that game. That showed true heart and that he was not going to give up.

When it comes to Anderson, he has had a slow start to the season in the past two years. But he always finds a way to crank up the yards when needed. This season will be very important for Anderson as he has competition right behind him.

I believe if he can have a strong start, he could get over 1,000 yards this season. But this is only if he can start off September 8th with a bang and keep the intensity going. I will be rooting for Anderson because I truly believe he can be the running back that the Denver Broncos have been searching for since the days of Terrell Davis.
