Bouncing back from serious injuries is never easy, but it's what NFL players have to do to stay on top. Fantasy owners know that and despite getting burned last year by some of these players, they have to jump right back on and trust them again. Here's a look at eight NFL stars who are bouncing back from injury and where they went in each of our first four NFFC Draft Champions Leagues:

Darren McFadden: 18, 22, 18, 23
Adrian Peterson: 18, 24, 25, 26
Matt Forte: 25, 14, 25, 19
DeMarco Murray: 20, 31, 26, 29
Jamaal Charles: 33, 29, 27, 39
Fred Jackson: 32, 35, 51, 46
Peyton Manning: 46, 54, 40, 53
Kenny Britt: 56, 43, 64, 60

After the incredible rookie season that Cam Newton had last year, it's not surprising that rookies are being looked at in a whole new light this year. Here's a look at where the top rookies are going in our first four NFFC Draft Champions Leagues (one league is still going on):

Trent Richardson: 21, 27, 21, 24
Robert Griffin III: 72, 92, 97
Doug Martin: 79, 63, 59
Justin Blackmon: 94, 112, 98
Coby Fleener: 90, 153, 122
Andrew Luck: 126, 127, 130

Any thoughts on these picks?

If Kenny Britt can stay healthy - and that's a huge "if" - he's going to be an insane value pick.

Tell me about it. He should be a very serviceable RB and put up points but not 1st round material yet. But who knows maybe he just goes off but even so hes going to be there round 2 in every draft ... maybe round 3 depending on format
