I can’t get the video to play, but who were 1 and 2?  

Bengals - Burrow, Chase, Mixon

Bucs - Brady, Evans, Fournette

I think Brady is going to have a terrible year. Gisele is mad at him, didn't want him to go back to the NFL, and she is a literal witch.

3rd feels high because Singletary is a pretty middle of the road starting back but then I am struggling to think who else I'd put higher. Probably Herbert, Eckler, Allen but that is the only one I can think of. 

 

Cousins, Jefferson, Cook might be one…but every time I think of Cousins I say “ugh.”  He does put up the numbers though.

Yea that was my first thought, but I decided you have to weight it QB 50%, RB 25%, WR 25%.... and therefore while the difference between Allen and Cousins might be similar to the difference between Cook and Singletary you have the weigh the former more heavily than the latter.

A lot of teams are RB by committee. Whenever these rankings come out, I think to myself that they really shouldn't limit it to just QB/WR/RB, but also QB/WR/TE or QB/TE/RB or whatever

Agreed - if you make it a quadruple or switch the RB for a TE and include Knox then it’s a different proposition.

I thought that too initially.  But Singletary has had a high ypc career average.  I think if he doesn't always have to split his carries so much, he's a 1,000 yard back.

I’m definitely not Singletary’s biggest fan, but he’s average to above-average at pretty much everything, and I can definitely see the Bills using him as the workhorse if he continues his strong play from end of last season. 
 

He almost always makes the first guy miss in the open field.  
 

His biggest downside is lacking that long speed so it’s a lot of doubles and never any home runs.

Yea, average. Middle of the road. Same difference. He is a starting running back in the NFL so clearly that in itself is special, but within the subset of "NFL starting running backs" he is average.

With his size and running style I’d worry about him carrying that big of a workload. I think his workload has been calculated and is in a good place for him.

I think he should absolutely be able to handle 15-20 carries per game (if that’s what the game calls for).  He’s a bigger body than most give credit for. 
 

I’d also think Singletary wants that to show teams around the league that he deserves to get paid in the off-season.  
 

Bills seem to be high on Moss, and of course have Cook in the mix, so I don’t see why we’d balk at limiting his workload in a contract year / likely his last year in a Bills uniform.

You might want to look at what that means and then rethink that. 15-20 carries a game equals about 297 in a season. That would have put him top 3 last season and about 60 carries higher than the RB with the sixth most carries.  For comparison, he had 188 carries last season. 
 

I’m sure he’d love to be showcased more so he can get paid, but why does that matter?  Why even bring that up?

 

There is something to be said for the Bills running the tires off of him if they think it’s his last season here (which is very likely IMO). But I think they’d rather have him in good shape for the playoffs and they would also want to assign snaps to the RBs based on performance.

That’s why I said “if the game calls for it”… I highly doubt there will be too many games that do so.  
 

For example though, he had 16 carries against the Pats in the Playoffs last year.

We have 2 Aces and a 10, the Chargers have 2 Kings and a Queen.  We win if it is a poker hand.

Ranked #3 is our very own Josh Allen, Stephon Diggs and Devon Singletary.

 

Go get it this year, fellas. Go Bills!

Honestly, I don’t our offense fits that triplets category…. We’re more like JA and his weapons…imho…

Once Cook showcases his skill this season that ranking should be one or two next year. 

I really hope this is the case.  A star RB on a rookie deal to go with Josh Allen would make the offense so potent.
