McCaffrey, Elliott and Cook are probably the 2nd tier. Chubb, Josh Jacobs, and Alvin Kamara are on the outside peeking in. I’d personally bump Kamara into that 2nd tier over Cook but that has a lot to do with availability. Talent wise, Cook is showing he belongs. I think Elliott and Barkley are in their own tier right now, with McCaffrey, Kamara and Cook right behind them. It’s amazing how much Gurley has fallen off. He was right in that top 3 this time last year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I'd put Kamara and Bell in that 2nd tier, but yeah, that's a pretty accurate list. It is an era of really really good RBs. David Johnson, Todd Gurley, Joe Mixon, Leonard Fournette, Marlon Mack, Phillip Lindsay, and Derrick Henry all have top 10 claims. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SotanKing Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Cook is better than Zeke...when healthy, Dalvin is in Tier1 among RBs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the NFL had a "all hands on deck" draft tomorrow, Barkley is the first RB off the board, and it isn't even close. McCaffrey is an elite back, no question about that. But, in my opinion, Barkley is still, far and away, the best of the bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 The race to lead the league in rushing appears set to go down to the wire this season, with the NFL’s top four running backs all projected to finish the season within 30 yards of each other. Vikings running back Dalvin Cook leads the league with 823 rushing yards, followed by Jacksonville’s Leonard Fournette at 715, Carolina’s Christian McCaffrey at 618 and Cleveland’s Nick Chubb at 607. But the rushing race is a lot closer than those numbers suggest. The Vikings have played eight games this season, the Jaguars seven, and the Panthers and Browns six each. On a per-game basis, the four top runners have had virtually identical seasons: The difference between first and fourth is less than two yards per game. Here’s where the Top 4 runners would end up this season, if they all continue their current paces for 16 games: 1,648 yards: Christian McCaffrey1,646 yards: Dalvin Cook 1,634 yards: Leonard Fournette 1,619 yards: Nick Chubb https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/10/25/nfl-rushing-title-likely-to-go-down-to-the-wire/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Dalvin Cook leads the NFL with 823 rushing yards. He also has nine rushing touchdowns, which ties the franchise record for most rushing scores through the first eight games of any season. https://www.vikings.com/news/vikings-squarely-in-nfc-playoff-picture-at-midpoint-of-2019-season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
