Nozizaki Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I feel like Dalvin would be much higher on these lists if he could stay healthy. Really only think Henry is comparable to him when he is on the field, but he misses at least a game or two a year so... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying he’s not #1, ok whatever but not top 5, yea ok.... Totally forgot about Henry,I just answered it on the fly. Don't get your panties in a bunch! I'd put Henry at 4 and boot Chubb off the list.

SalvadorsDeli Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I know a lot of it is beyond his control but at this point you basically have to go back 3 full years to get a version of Saquon Barkley that was actually a top 5 running back in the league, and he's dealt with multiple injury issues since then. I don't see him as a default top 5 guy anymore - it certainly would not be a surprise to see him back up there after this coming season but as it stands now there are guys that are better and have been better than him. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I feel the same for Dalvin Cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Assuming they're healthy, in no particular order: *Kamara *Henry *Chubb *McCaffrey *Cook Just misses: *Aaron Jones Has to prove it to be considered: *Saquon Barkley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iknowcool Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) Chubb and Henry are the 2 best runners. Kamara and CMC are the best all-around backs. I'd have a hard time saying one is better than the other among those four. My 5th would probably be Cook. Barkley has the highest ceiling, it just feels like it has been a long time since we've seen it. Edited May 26, 2021 by iknowcool 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I feel the same for Dalvin Cook. Because I think when fully healthy Saquon is a top 3 back in the league and offers more versatility than Chubb. Cook in my opinion is the most explosive back in the league when he is clicking on all cylinders. We could actually have 2 separate lists here, one for all around back and one for pure runner. Chubb, Cook and Henry in my opinion are probably the top pure running backs in the league but the limited passing upside takes them down a peg or two in the "all around back" category.

Cook in my opinion is the most explosive back in the league when he is clicking on all cylinders. I mean, Chubb has been in the league one year less and has about 100 less yards, not to mention a higher YPC, more yards after contact, a better elusive rating, and a better break tackle rating. I'm not sure where you get the "explosive" portion from. As for Saquon being a top 3 back in the league, that's what we saw with him as a rookie, but he's essentially 2 years removed from that, and almost 3 years removed. 6 minutes ago, Letsch80 said: We could actually have 2 separate lists here, one for all around back and one for pure runner.

This I could agree with, albeit since the Browns have Hunt and utilize him more for this, it's harder to gauge how versatile Chubb is/could be if they needed him to be.

I'm strictly going by the eye test with Saquon, he is a flat out difference maker when he is healthy and provides more then Chubb as a pass catcher. By explosive I mean a back who explodes through the holes with speed and power, it's noticeable to me when Cook is at the top of his game, this is no slight to any other back just my opinion from watching a ton of football.

Yeah, Chubb is actually pretty good at catching the ball out of the backfield (minus the KC playoff game). He's just not asked to do so often since we have Hunt. I do wish Chubb was utilized a bit more in the passing game. As for as pure runners, Chubb and Henry are the top two for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Dobbins and Taylor will be fun ones to watch this year and see how they progress. I’ve said it over and over, pre-draft and post-draft, that RB class was the most loaded in ages. Akers looks like a stud himself as well. I’m also expecting Moss to be an Above-Average RB1 at some point. His skillset is pretty similar to Josh Jacobs, although I don’t think he’ll be as good as Jacobs. Edwards-Helaire is another one to keep an eye on and see how he progresses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
