Kirby Jackson Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 1 Leveon Bell 2 David Johnson 3 Ezekiel Elliott 4 Lesean McCoy 5 Jordan Howard ?? I think that you are right on with the top 4. Peterson is next if he ever plays. There's a little drop off at 5. Freeman, Gordon, Howard, Ajayi, Rawls, Miller all have a case. Demarco Murray would probably get my vote.

Augie Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Some think Dalvin Cook will be on that list quickly. I've watched a lot of FSU, and he's amazing. Keep the hammy's healthy (cough, cough, Shady) and he may be a better pro than Fournette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWATeam Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Some think Dalvin Cook will be on that list quickly.He is clearly the best back in the class. A special talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I think that you are right on with the top 4. Peterson is next if he ever plays. There's a little drop off at 5. Freeman, Gordon, Howard, Ajayi, Rawls, Miller all have a case. Demarco Murray would probably get my vote. Murray has proven to be system-specific. He's so explosive; he's going to be a great pro. Wait until Fournette gets drafted by Carolina. He matches that offense like Elliot matches Dallas. Gonna be bananas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikie2times Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) I don't know how you can disagree. As far as pedigree and history of performing at a high level AP is his only equal. In peak form AP is the best but he might not ever return to peak form at his age. He is 3 years older. Johnson, Bell, Elliot don't have as much history. In Johnson and Bells case the history they do have is south of Shady's career YPC numbers with much smaller sample sizes. Elliott is hard to pinpoint with him behind that Dallas line. He's up there, but you gotta give Shady the nod based on history. Let's also put that history in perspective with last year being a career best in YPC and his second best season as a pro.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/02/03/lesean-mccoy-says-hes-leagues-best-back-ranks-the-others/ When healthy. Followed by leveon bell and Demarco Murray calm down Rex I remember a long, long time Jim Brown saying something about OJ's false humility. Brown said for OJ to be as good as he was, he must have played knowing he was the best player on the field. So when OJ deflected question about whether or not he was the all-time best he was disingenuous. All great RBs, according to Brown, are cocky. Brown is an idiot, when ever he is on I mute it or change the channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice2145 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 calm down Rex Brown is an idiot, when ever he is on I mute it or change the channel He might be an idiot but he was correct on his Trent Richardson evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalScotts Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 you could make a good argument. What I really like about Elliot is nearly every interview he talks about how good his o line is. Not a lot of backs do that and Zeke is correct Dallas put their high picks into the O-line and they are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 1 Leveon Bell 2 David Johnson 3 Ezekiel Elliott 4 Lesean McCoy 5 Jordan Howard ?? This is the correct order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#34fan Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) It's good for him to think that... I definitely think he created MANY opportunities for himself when our O-line flaked-out on him.... He's got an expiration date, tho.... We need to make the most of his good years by combining his explosiveness with other high-powered weaponry.. That means OJ Howard, Plus another High-powerd target -Zay Jones, maybe?... Defintely Darreus Rogers from USC... Sometimes I wish Doug Whaley would just step aside, and let ME build this team!

Mr. WEO Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Murray has proven to be system-specific. Which system? He had 1300 yards in Tenn this year (#3 in the NFL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
