Best RB in the NFL this year

[old1r1sh]

Between Bell and Johnson imo. Both do pretty much everything at the position.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

David Johnson, complete back getting it done on a team that have had offensive struggles this season.

Bell is so much better than every other RB in the league that it's not even close IMO...and that includes a healthy AP. Best year right now is Elliott, but he's not better than Bell. Johnson is good, but not as good as the other two and AZ forces him the ball more in passing game. Horrendous ratio of passes to comp for a RB.

 

[The Derski]

Umm. Johnson is most certainly on the level of Elliott and Bell. Elliott has like 12 career games under his belt and Johnson can't touch him? Please

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

I'd go Johnson and Bell as 1 and 1a. Best all around can do it all backs.

Zeke next as possible ROY
Gordon and Shady

All five backs have been outstanding this year.

perhaps some day Elliott will prove to be a very good receiver down the road. He blocks like a mac truck and runs the ball fairly well. No deal....fine with our guy

Runs "fairly well"?? The guy is a flat out superstar as much as it pains me to say it.

Johnson is better. He would be MVP with Dallas' line.

Btw this thread makes me sad that the Lions drafted Abullah ahead of the poll winner.

What you and many others fail to realize is Arizona's OL is very good as a run blocking unit. What makes Dallas line so good is its very good in both run and pass protection. I'm taking Zeke because he's a better runner a very good pass catcher, very good in blitz pick up. Has higher yards per run and catch. Higher percentage of receptions per target. Johnson is having a great year but there is no way to know if he'll equal Zekes stats in Dallas or if Zeke wont equal Johnsons stats in Arizona. Dallas has to many options at receiver to feed Zeke with so many pasd attempts.

Jordan Howard really bust onto the scene. I think that kid is for real and will be on this short list of running backs before too long. He might even be a better pure rusher than Elliot, he just hasn't had the opportunity from day one and has been running behind a terrible oline and for a terrible passing offense. I voted david Johnson though. You have to discount bell for the games missed. He might have missed them due to suspension, but that's three games where he did absolutely nothing for his team.

never thought I'd see a h3h3 gif on here

Howard has been impressive, kid has a future.

 

[old1r1sh]

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

 

[Manster7588]

Bell rolled up 47 FF points for me, hopefully Zeke will get me another 47.

Bell and Hyde have got me 78 pts by themselves.

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

3.9 yards per attempt, he only ominated bc woodhead left, and he upped the td numbers

So what you're saying is he had is pretty good season. Gotcha

 

[NWPATSFAN]

1. Johnson hands down at this point.
2. Bell right behind Johnson they both do it all.
3. Gordon has the potential to move into the # 1 spot.
4. Zeke but as mentioned above any of the three aforementioned RBs may put up 2500 yards behind that line.

Not that this matters but all are FFL studs. I had Johnson in one league last year and Bell in another.

im saying his YPC was abysmal and like 20th overall of eligible players, got it/?
