The 606 RB Power Rankings

by GSC Fri 06 May 2011, 4:55 pm

Rather than everyone voting for who they consider #1, then #2 etc, I'll do 1 RB vs another until a consensus is reached, then move onto further votes.
(i.e AP is voted #1 over C.J. C.J then faces Steven Jackson for the #2 spot. If Jackson wins then he faces AP for the 1st spot while C.J challenges the 3rd spot.)

1st up, Adrian Peterson vs Chris Johnson

A.P

And I'll eventually get round to the mock draft contest >_>

by GB1919 Fri 06 May 2011, 6:22 pm

It's got to be AP.

by AdZacO Fri 06 May 2011, 6:24 pm

well you started with my favourite 2. Peterson has fumble issues, but can dance his way through, or bosh folk out they way. Think he sorted his fumbling til play offs last season tho, and in my head im trying to argue how AP loses it, rather than why johnson deserves it so ill go for AP.

(sorry for the rambling)

Chris Johnson.

AP for me. A complete back.

by Leedscowboys Sat 07 May 2011, 2:50 pm

Think we have a winner

by GSC Sat 07 May 2011, 4:58 pm

Well its been up for a day and AP seems to be the consensus

1. Adrian Peterson

Day 2: Chris Johnson vs Steven Jackson

S-Jack for me. Great in every phase.

by AdZacO Sat 07 May 2011, 6:32 pm

chris johson has to be here. Jackson doesnt score enough TDs and doesnt have the breakaway speed. Easy one for me here.

by BamBam Sat 07 May 2011, 6:34 pm

Chris Johnson for me

by CFCNick Sat 07 May 2011, 6:34 pm

CJ2k all day here.

by **Derbyblue** Sat 07 May 2011, 6:38 pm

Chris Johnson.

by Leedscowboys Sat 07 May 2011, 6:42 pm

by GB1919 Sat 07 May 2011, 7:49 pm

Not even a debate, CJ2K it is.

by GSC Mon 09 May 2011, 3:59 pm

1. Adrian Peterson
2. Chris Johnson

3: Steven Jackson vs Arian Foster

S-Jack

by AquaArab Mon 09 May 2011, 4:12 pm

I got to go with Arian Foster myself.

by BamBam Mon 09 May 2011, 4:46 pm

I'm going for Steven Jackson, consistently good over a period of time, need to see it from Foster for at least one more season

by dancingweeman Mon 09 May 2011, 5:14 pm

I'll go for Steven Jackson too. As bambam said mainly down consistency and longetivity.

by Leedscowboys Mon 09 May 2011, 5:31 pm

Ill go Forster, on last season only this is a guy who was an UDFA and 4th choice at the Texans and injuries he got his chance, he also put some impressive numbers up against some strong teams.

SJAX is a good RB but the Rams now have a passing QB and I dont think he will see as many snaps.

by uberfunction Mon 09 May 2011, 6:27 pm

Arian Foster. I think 2011 is going to be his year.

by **Derbyblue** Mon 09 May 2011, 6:44 pm

Tough call, Foster's had one great season but that's it, Jackson's had the longevity of his career and stats and gone over 1000 yards rushing every season apart from his rookie year, but then IMO he's only had one amazing year (2006 with 2334 total yards.) I think I'll go Steven Jackson.

by GB1919 Mon 09 May 2011, 7:32 pm

Too soon to put Foster very high, but that's likely to change. Based on what has been achieved so far I'll go for Steven Jackson.

by Thomond Mon 09 May 2011, 9:42 pm

Jackson.Has anyone seen those documentaries about him and his career? Quite interesting.

by skins4ever Tue 10 May 2011, 10:39 am

Jackson is the quintessential power back, something that many teams don't use any more. Real smash mouth player and gets my vote.

I agree with AP and CJ2K in that order now, but if we get NFL football in 2011 I expect the order to be reversed come season end.

by AdZacO Tue 10 May 2011, 12:07 pm

Has to be Jackson, one season not enough yet, may change next year.

by CFCNick Tue 10 May 2011, 6:27 pm

Jackson

by GSC Tue 10 May 2011, 6:28 pm

1. AD
2. CJ2K
3. Steven Jackson

4. Arian Foster vs Maurice Jones Drew.

I'm taking MJD.

Maurice Jones Drew, one of my favourite current players.

P P P Pocket Rocket!

by wow_junky Wed 11 May 2011, 12:47 pm

I really want to say Foster, but 1 season isn't enough... if he repeats then maybe we can think about it.

For now though, Jones-Drew is my pick

by GSC Wed 11 May 2011, 2:59 pm

Seems fairly decided

1. AD
2. CJ2K

3/4. Steven Jackson vs MJD

5. Arian Foster vs Michael Turner

I'm taking MJD and Foster

by **Pr4wn** Wed 11 May 2011, 3:05 pm

Jackson and Foster for me.

Jackson is more durable and Foster can catch.

by **Derbyblue** Wed 11 May 2011, 3:10 pm

I'll go MJD.

Then I'll chose Arian Foster.
