The Facts:
Already tired of serving as Denver's running back option 1B, Bell felt like he was running in place last month when off-season camps opened to the revelation that Ron Dayne had jumped from No. 3 running back to 1A in the Broncos' tailback rotation. "When I heard the news about Mike [Anderson] and then we didn't get another running back, I was like, 'Oh, yeah, it's on. That's all I need,'" Bell said. "Then comes the start of quarterback camp and Dayne goes with the first group and I'm like, 'Ahh, here we go again.'"

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
In his quest to become the Broncos' primary ballcarrier, Bell's competition may not be Dayne but team officials who believe he's most effective as a 10-carry back. "I'm not saying that you don't want a No. 1 running back, so to speak," GM Ted Sundquist said last month. "But I think we'll still be an effective offense in a rotational system." In other words, it'll be business as usual this summer for Fantasy owners trying to get a solid feel for who Denver's most productive ball carrier might be this fall.
