That's a pretty good list. You could argue the order of a couple of them but that's a great list to start with.

Barkley was no where near the player McFadden was. Barkley wouldn't make the top 10 RBs.

No duel threat, two way player, Marco Wilson?
List is shite

Whole lot of great players on here. I agree with the above, any list of players since 2000 has to include D-Mac.

Johnny football and Scam Newton could both see a bump up. Scam has an argument for #2. Joe > AP as well

Any list that doesn’t include DMac is absolute trash.

Scam and Vince young are 1a and 1b. There are several bama players I would put on there before smith and Henry.
Honey badger should be in the top 25 or so, probably on this list.

DeVonta Smith holds the SEC record for career receiving yards, receiving yards in a season, receiving touchdowns in a career, and receiving touchdowns in a season. He is also the NCAA record holder for career receiving touchdowns. His place on this list is justified.

I don't know how McFadden isn't in the top 15. Manziel is lower than he should be.

Fixed this for you.

The fact that Tebow and Young are 1 and 2 tells me that whoever created this list used little to no critical thinking.

They weren't one hit wonders.

if we're just considering college, Trent Richardson ran circles around Saquon Barkley. So did Leonard Fournette.

No McFadden, he is one of the best SEC running backs of all time. Utter ridiculous

Not enough defense on the list. Should have made two lists; one for offense and one for defense.
