Jumper_Dad Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 He looks good so far this season. If he continues to develop as a pass catcher it will really transform him as a RB. He's playing like a top 5 RB so far and he could end up with the best numbers, but I'd hold off anointing him as the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJAlltheWay24 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Let's not jinx my fantasy stud. He's certainly elevated his game and is becoming the running back everyone thought he might be coming out of Georgia. I think he's still behind Leveon Bell though.

GrantNKY Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 I think the only other guys in the discussion are Leveon and Zeke and neither one of them is exactly setting the world on fire right now. Right now I think it's Gurley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSfootballfan18 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Saying he is the best at this moment is a true statement! His #s prove it! Even after his subpar year last year I thought he was WAY better than his #s showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurley had horrible o line last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the stats last year showed he got hit sooner on average than any RB in the NFL, that line and play calling was horrible last season.

Yeah the play calling for him last year was terrible. MCVAY (SP) sure has them buying in to whatever he is doing there in LA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do we only use numbers when it supports what we think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habib Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Still Bell for my money. But holding out all summer slowed his start this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurecoach Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I think the only other guys in the discussion are Leveon and Zeke and neither one of them is exactly setting the world on fire right now. Right now I think it's Gurley. Still disagree on Zeke. Zeke is very good but hard to say he is definitely top even 2 is a stretch imo. Considering he plays behind the best line in football. As we see with Gurley line play and even who calls the plays makes a huge difference in how a running back looks. Zeke is top 10 but considering that line produced a 2000 yard rusher before he even got there, and also made McFadden a 1000 yard rusher and rather healthy. It's just hard for me to say he is one of the top 2. When I think there may be 10 other backs who also would tear it up behind that line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would you say is better than Zeke excluding Leveon and Gurley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurecoach Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Who would you say is better than Zeke excluding Leveon and Gurley? I will name guys who I think if they played behind that line could also look at least as good. McCoy with the Bills Fournette with the Jags Hunt with the Chiefs Cook with the Vikings David Johnson with the Cardinals Quite honestly I think Joe Mixon behind that line would look like a star too. Instead of never having anywhere to run behind the Bengals line. Honestly I think another OSU back Carlos Hyde would also have been considered a stud behind that line. All the guys mentioned like Zeke are very talented running backs. The difference is Zeke has a easier chance to show his talent behind the best line in football. If you switch Zeke with one of those guys I think he still does good. However the guy you switched him with probably then looks better than he would if he was on another team. Zeke is very good. I just think you could switch him with almost any of the guys I mentioned, and they would look better than other backs too just like Zeke does.
