Here are their total yards from scrimmage and TDs over the last two seasons:
Todd Gurley: 3,924, 40 TDs
Alvin Kamara: 3,041, 29 TDs
Mark Ingram: 2,269, 18 TDs
Leonard Fournette: 1,895, 15 TDs
Derrick Henry: 1,840, 17 TDs
Kenyan Drake: 1,746, 13 TDs
Then you have this year’s rookies
Nick Chubb: 1,010, 10 TDs
Sony Michel: 815, 5 TDs
I think Gurley and Kamara are 1 and 2. I want to put Ingram at 3, but Chubb has looked nice this year.
Fournette has been less than impressive. I would put Henry over him at this moment.
The UGA and Bama backs on this list.

LF probably has as many touches as Drake and Henry combined 
ETA: Yeah, you have to put Drake ahead of LF too.

Todd Gurley has always been insane. Hard to top what he’s doing.
Alvin Kamara has a super unique skill set that sets him apart.
Overall - The SEC is the best football on the planet.

You had me curious so I looked.
Fournette has 438 touches
Henry (before today) had 378
Drake has 312
Now if we did it on a per game basis, its a lot closer (fournette averages 22 per game, Henry and Drake combined are at 23 per...)
Either way, I expected way more from Fournette. I don’t know if it is a scheme thing or what. His vision seems terrible right now. Just not seeing plays develop.

Gurley is the most explosive and complete. The rest are either extremely good at a skillset and in a great system (Kamara), young and hitting their stride (Chubb, Michel, Henry) or in a bad spot (Fournette). It feels like the Dolphins still haven't exactly figured out what to do with Drake. And Ingram is just a solid veteran.

I think he's been mentally beat down by years of playing with no competent passing attack. He sees ghosts even when they aren't there.

I'm not giving up on LF7, though.

I’m happy to see Derrick playing well. Watching that monster run around on the field looks like you showed your 9-year old nephew Madden’s create-a-player for the first time.
The Jags QB situation doesn’t help Leonard. Nobody respects Bortles or Kessler. So loading the box up with bodies isn’t a detriment.

Not that we like outsiders on here, but it's been refreshing that you're being trying to make actual football threads and engage in meaningful dialogue unlike some of these tards' from other schools.

Surprised that KJ can still use his arms after AA (Auburn Abuse)

LF1.6 is a bust. Everyone has already accepted this other than the 1SU trash

A buddy told me that Derrick Henry was struggling and gave Eddie George a call and asked for his opinion as to what he was doing wrong, and since that conversation has been tearing it up.
Henry has been a force of nature the last 4-5 games.

And the top 2 defensive linemen (will be top 3 next season) from Mississippi State. Talented conference no doubt.
