yout crazy, hes a target monster, hes growing with his qb, and had 12 td's on a down year

Not crazy. I like being able to get him in the second in as many leagues as I can. So I need to convince all y'all how much he sucks. That is what the laughing dogs were for.

I would probably put OBJ at 5 right now, but it might be an RB come summer.

I am not a Zeke in the top 5 person(if he is he is number 5)... the way i see it the cowboys had a SPECIAL season where they didn't play much from behind, so i don't see his touches increasing... Nor is he a great receiving back... so really, i don't see any improvement for him... Now, not knocking him, he is a clear top 5 RB... but i am just not going crazy on him...

Nor is he a great receiving back...

His receiving skills are lone of his biggest strengths it takes time to get acclimated to it in the pro game its why so many compared him to LaDainian coming out of school. I expect him to make strides in that area this off season especially with his QB getting a full off season as the starter.

Edit and he has a monster of an oline in front of him safest pick in the draft imo

If @averagejoe, which I am sure it is, is right with his chart he played a very small percent of their offensive snaps meaning he was incredibly productive while not being on the field close to full time. I think he is a special talent that also fell into the perfect spot.

My top 5 right now, assuming standard league:

1. Bell - assuming still in Pitt but their GM should be ran out of town if he doesnt make this happen.
2. D. Johnson
3. Zeke
4. A. Brown
5. ODB/Evans - I would be happy with either here honestly.

Sidenote: I think Pitt really needs both Bell and Brown because I feel Ben is starting to regress a little.

Maybe snaps, but he had the most carries of all RBs last season... he had 322, next best was blount at 299... I don't see his carry total increasing, if anything it will decrease IMO... MAYBE he will be used more as a receiver, but he and the cowboys have yet to show that that is really a serious threat...

1. Bell (if he stays in PIT)
2. Zeke
3. D-Johnson
4. AB
5. ODB


and because I'm bored...

6. Evans
7. Julio
8. Gordon
9. Freeman
10. McCoy
11. Nelson
12. Ajayi
13. D Murray
14. Hilton
15. Howard
16. Ingram
17. AJ Green
18. Cooks
19. Charles
20. L Miller
21. Gronkowski
22. T Hill
23. Gurley
24. Forte
25. J Hill
26. Cooper
27. Coleman
28. Baldwin
29. K Allen
30. Blount (call me apprehensive due to the hoodie & D Lewis' reemergence)

Honorable mentions:
*Hyde
*L Murray
*D Adams
*AP if he doesn't hang 'em up
*Lacy (if he stays in GB & loses all that weight again lol, but I wouldn't draft him)
*Cj Anderson (not sure what to think right now)
*D Martin
*J Reed
*Hopkins (new OC in Houston?)
*A Robinson
*Watkins (new QB?)

If we throw QB's into the situation then Rodgers, Ryan & Brady crack the top 30 easy.

I think as they are more comfortable with Dak and not needing to hold his hand, not a slight but all teams protect their rookie QBs, I think he will be much more involved in the passing game. There arent many true three down backs but he is one of them.

no doubt, like I said he is a top 5 RB no matter what... I have him as the 3rd best RB... I think he is just out of my top 5...

My top 5 would be in order:

1. David Johnson
2. Bell
3. Brown
4. Julio
5. Odell

I of course wouldn't argue if anyone took Zeke in the top 5... But I don't think its wise to take him over Bell or Johnson...

I agree with Bell and Johnson being the top two

I also think Howard looks good for the future.
