Frank Gore, Chester Taylor, and Thomas Jones. What do all three have in common? For one, they all had strong 2006 campaigns. In fact, each rushed for over 1200 yards (Gore ? 1695; Taylor - 1216; Jones ? 1210) and scored at least 6 TDs (Gore - 9; Taylor ? 6; Jones ? 6). The other thing that ties these three together is that all appeared in the 2006 edition of the Bruno Boys "Snooze Alarm" Rankings for Running Backs. If that doesn't make you want to read our 2007 edition, then I guess you just don't like the color green or shiny metal objects. Because if you did, you'd read on, learn who the "Sleepers" were at the Running Back position for 2007, draft accordingly, win your fantasy league, and get that nice green cash or that nice shiny trophy.
Sleepers are as fellow Bruno Boy staff member, Cory Steger stated, "crucial, when [it comes to] taking home your league's fantasy football hardware." Everyone knows the studs, but if you can look and determine who's ready to bust out and get those guys, you'll have a major advantage when it comes to the 2007 season.
So, please read on and enjoy the Bruno Boys Running Back "Snooze Alarm" Rankings because even if you don't like the color green or shiny metal objects, you don't want to hurt my feelings, right?
Ranking System: The higher the "Snooze Alarm" Ranking, the more sleeper value the player has.

Brandon Jacobs ? New York Giants
The name Brandon Jacobs is not new to fantasy football owners. If you haven't already cashed in on his penchant for finding the end-zone, chances are that you at least recognize him as the guy who greatly reduced Tiki Barber's fantasy value last season. Either way, it's time to get know Brandon Jacobs a little better because he may just be your ticket to fantasy gold.
Jacobs earns FOUR SNOOZE ALARMS, topping the Bruno Boys list of sleepers at the Running Back position, and for good reason. To begin with, Tiki Barber's departure to the airways, thrusts Jacobs into the starting running back spot for the New York Giants. While some will say that Jacob's starting status is still uncertain as the Giants have brought in Reuben Droughns, don't believe it. Jacobs is the younger and more explosive back, and the Giants will give every opportunity possible to be their primary ball carrier.
