Keefe Presents: Top 10 Running Backs


Keefe Presents continues today with the Top 10 RBs. Again, a reminder, these are not the Top 10 best fantasy backs, but rather simply the 10 best running backs in the NFL. If each guy played on the same offense, with the same QB, O-line, etc., who would be the best for this season, that is what this list(s) are all about.


Top 10 Running Backs:

1. Adrian Peterson, Vikings
2. Chris Johnson, Titans
3. Maurice Jones-Drew, Jaguars
4. Ray Rice, Ravens
5. Stephen Jackson, Rams
6. Michael Turner, Falcons
7. Frank Gore, 49ers
8. Arian Foster, Texans
9. Ahmad Bradshaw, Giants
10. Darren McFadden, Raiders

Honorable Mention: Rashad Mendenhall, Steelers; Matt Forte, Bears; Cedric Benson, Bengals; DeAngelo Williams, Panthers; Ronnie Brown, Dolphins

If your team has or is playing against one of those guys on the list, you can talk about a Top 10 RB in the game, other than that, they might be good, but not in the upper echelon. This list is once again tough, you see guys like Foster and McFadden really only having this year for a track record, but from watching them I truly believe they are in the Top 10.

DeAngelo Williams was a tough omission from my Top 10, he's had a horrible/injury riddled season (he's out for the year), but based strictly on talent, which my lists are intended for, it's hard to say he's not in the Top 10, but there are so many good RBs.


Coming up next: Wide Receivers
