Who is the best overall running back currently?

I'd like to say that Tomlinson is the best without a doubt but he does have alot of help with Neal clearing some huge holes my grandma could bust through.\n\nAs for speed, talent, mental alertness, vision, hands, conditioning I really like last years rookie Frank Gore.

I would say Colston no doubt, but he got injured today and depending on how long he is out may affect his chances. He has been the biggest shock and most impressive player coming out of last years draft. \n\nOn defense I would have to say Mark Anderson, the guy leads all rookies (tied at #5 in all of the NFL) with 7.5 sacks so far as well as some forced fumbles and a safety.

Definatly. I use to think that Priest Holmes was the best but he was injured and has never come back. But if you can sub for Holmes without missing a beat then you are definatly one of the best. What makes him the best is that he isnt on a strong team when Alexander was on one of the 3 best teams in football last year. If your looking at this year than you choose Johnson as the better runningback. Johnson just gained a great blocker in Kyle Turley. Alexander lost his best blocker. Johnson is the best runningback in the NFL. No if, ands, or buts about it.

Antonio Gates. He's powerful and has great hands and not to mention he cn block for the best running back in the game\n\nthe besttight end to be is vernon davis. he's a larger more powerful and much quicker version of antonio gates. his only bad thing is he can't block for his life\n\nanother sleeper to be superstar is lenard pope who was drafted in the 3rd round by the cardinals. watch him to bloom with matt lineard throwing to him and larry fitzgerald and mr.boldin on both sides

This season it's Thomas Jones. 212 attempts (4th most in the league) with 1 fumble.\n\nI couldn't tell you historically but I can bet Emmitt Smith is real close.

The best running back was Johnny "the Jet" Rodgers.  But there best player I think had to be Tommie Frazier, he should have won the Heisman instead of Danny Worfel or Wurful, nobod even knoes who he is.  GO BIG RED!

take McAllister and Maroney simply because they are the lead running backs and will get more yards than the other two

Cedric Benson is not high on my list .. especially after the contract fiasco he pulled during training camp.\n\nAt the #4 pick, if the Bears really wanted a RB, they should have grabbed Carnell Williams instead.  Personally, they should have drafted a WR instead.  However, the Bears have been prone to mess up draft classes.  \n\nCedric Benson may provide the bears with a good running game, but Thomas Jones already does that (or were his 1300+ rushing yards not enough?).  Jones has continued to improve his games with each season, culminating in his first 1000+ yard rushing season last year.  Also, Adrian Peterson provides the change of pace running style that the Bears can employ without much worry.\n\nOTA sessions are one thing ... training camps set for the end of July are another ... and the NFL season is a whole different beast altogether.

Sanders. Without a doubt. Outside the line of scrimmage I have seen him do things that were in-human (Fake out a player who is chasing from behind).....he was an outstanding player on and off. Never spiked the ball and handed it to the ref after a score. Very respectful.

Ladainian Tomlinson. He could break Shaun Alexanders record of most TD in a season. If he does it should be LT. He catches, throws and runs like a demon. He is the best player in the NFL

PALMER. \n\n\nGreat WRs.

LaDainian Tomlinson.  It's much harder to be a great running back than a great QB.  Everyone knows LT is coming and they still can't stop him.\n\nFor more on the Chargers and the NFL, check this site out.  http://factipedia.com/sportsblogs/

hmm there are alot of very good wide-outs I will say the top 5\nnot an any order\n\n1.Steve Smith\n2.Chad Johnson\n3.Santana Moss\n4.Hinds Ward\n5.Randy Moss

Joe Montana\nSteve Deberg (check this guy out some time he played behind 5 HOFers)\nTom Brady.

I will go with Tomlinson. He is multi-talented as both a runner and a receiver, and has even been known to throw a TD pass on occasion. Last fall, I trembled every time my fantasy opponent had him!!
834607
I would think it should be Emmitt Smith with 164 rushing tds\n\nhttp://www.sportsline.com/nfl/players/playerpage/1094

It's got to be Larry Johnson for sure.  Finally given a chance to start, he finally reminded everyone why he was a first round draft pick.  As the starter for nine games, he managed to rush for over 1350 yards and to score 16 TDs.  It's unthinkable what he could have done if he was the starter for the whole season.  He is also a pass receiving threat as well.  He is the real deal!
