People mocked me when I said Gordon would have a breakout sophomore campaign. He's been money for my fantasy team.

Zeke is the best pure runner ive seen this season

But the RB position has changed, and David Johnsons' ability to do it all, gives him the edge

Leveon still in the discussion, but never seems to find the end zone

A lot of the NFL fans here don't watch much CFB so many of them weren't aware of Gordon's skill set entering the league. They just saw an underwhelming first year and figured he was a bustrue. Those of us that saw him a ton in college knew otherwise. Guys a stud

Put David Johnson or Bell behind Dallas' O-Line and we may just have a 2,000 yard rusher, 1,000+ yard receiver.

Elliott is good. But not ready to crown him best in the NFL at the moment.

Elliot might not be the best in the NFL Yet but its a damn sure short list of the guys that are better

I vote Bell this year by a nose but then I am a Cowboys fan and think Zeke will pass him really quick

Think that's exactly what I implied by not disagreeing with the poll options or stating there were tons of players better. Calm yourself please.

Elliot has the best O-line in the NFL
Gordon has the worst and faces the toughest defenses and is on pace for 1500 rush yards, 2k total yards and potentially 20 total TD's.

Don't forget about Shady averaging 5.5 YPC.

Bell is the best RB imo, it'd be great if he could avoid those injuries/suspensions and stay on the field for 15-16 games each year in the regular season(not choosing him because of the 3 games missed). For this season I'd say David Johnson has been the best. Elliot has done the most on the ground and I think he's really good, but it's pretty hard to not have success with that OL in front of him. Johnson does so much in the passing game and run game, fun to watch. Gordon has had a good year, if they fix up the OL his YPC should go up and he could get 1,500+ yards rushing. I'd give an honorable mention to DeMarco Murray, after a down year with Philly he's bounced back big with over 1,300 total yards and 11 total TD's.

I voted for Johnson but would also give a nod to McCoy.
