5 Years Down the Road, Who Do You Think Will Be the Best RB?

5 Years Down the Road, Who Do You Think Will Be the Best RB?

It can be any one you think, in the draft right now, already in the NFL, whatever.

LT

oh wait he is the best right now

and will be for many years

SometimesI explore the back pages when I get bored, too.

Question was asked in '05, it's been 2 years, less than 3 to go. So who do have now? Frank Gore and Steven Jackson seem like pretty good picks.

Hey guys i saw this on the last page and look what people said..... Fred taylor as the best RB? Portis? CURTIS MARTIN!!! LOVING IT!! newbpwnage

Jerome Bettis...

I hear him and Bill Cowher will be making a triumpant return to the NFL. lol

But in all seriousness,

Adrian Peterson...the one that plays for the Vikings, not the Bears.

He's already looking pretty good as a rookie. In five years, he will be MVP material.

Maurice Drewdetroitpistons0

Ahh, that's a good answer.

Lawrence Maroney is another good one imoNgamer05

Another good one. And he's got a great organization that can help him reach that top spot.

No way its Adrian Injurson. Frank Gore, AKA His Beastliness, will be the top back in 5 yearsWario_and_Fox

You know Gore has an injury history as well, don't you?

LOL how many times has Adrian Peterson been injured? Like one major injury? Also, the collarbone is THE EASIEST bone to break in your body. It is thin, and little protection.

lol at the fact that he broke it against my rival, isu when he wasnt even being tackled, just showing off.

Darren McFadden. He has amazing speed and power combo. Guy could rush for 1,400 yards in his first season next year, believe that.

I don't understand why just about everyone on earth thought he just dove into the endzone. Watch from 00:27-00:30. If you tell me it was a celebratory dive still, I pity you.

Top 5

1)Ladanian Tomlinson

2)Adrian Peterson

Wait....people honestly thought he was celebrating when he broke his collarbone?

I am going to say Fred Taylor, just because. I think that Shawn Alexander will be the best RB that is not a Jaguar.Godfixated

Talk about a homer pick, dude are you joking? Anyone the knows football would never make a pick like that because FRED TAYLOR is ALREADY 31 freaking years old, thats an old man in the NFL.

On top of that, not including the year he was out he has averaged less then 1200 years a year so... .:? Buy I guess I can't expect reason from someone with your username can I? :lol:

To answer the question I reckon Willie Parker will be very high up there in 5 years, he's on pace for 2000 yards this year, of course though he has to face some harder teams then the current 3 they stomped so I think 1800 for this year is likely if he avoids injury.

I think he is joking, dude, calm down... Seriously. You don't need to throw a tantrum, this ain't Jim Rome is burning.detroitpistons0

Calm down? I'm sorry, but honestly you must be on meth if you really think I'm getting worked up about nothing. If he was joking great! I found the idea of Fred being big 5 years down the road freaking hilarious. Also I suggest you look up dictionary.com so you can learn the real definition of a tantrum kid :)

The real definition of tantrum? Boy how bout you do that? Wow, I mean you're just makin a fool of yourself if you think I misused it.

(PS: If you're a cheater, tantrum=Like a sudden moment of a bad temper)

Way to make a fool of yourself kid :) I was laughing at the guys post, I thought it was a joke, it didn't make me angry it all....maybe when you get past at least english 1-2 you'll understand;)

Not angry? Read your own words. Paragraphs one and two. And if you're gonna start talking about how stupid I am in English...

You were supposed to put a comma after "On top of that, not including the year he was out" in "On top of that, not including the year he was out, he has averaged less"

You used the wrong "then" in "Less then 1200"

Also, "He has averaged less then 1200 years a year"? WTF?

You were supposed to put a comma after "Dude" in "Dude are you joking?"

"Buy I guess I can't expect reason" was simply a typo so I"ll let you go on that.

You used the wrong then in"He has to face some harder teams then the current 3"

There was supposed to be a comma after "Face some harder teams then the current teams they stomped"

There was supposed to be a comma after "If he was joking"

There was supposed to be a comma after "So you can learn the real definition of a tantrum"

There was supposed to be a comma after "Way to make a fool of yourself"

Also, you missed a **** load of periods.

detroit and zip, it's going to be hard to take both of you seriously from this point forward. :P

5 years down the road I like:

Jerious Norwood - Homer Pick Alert! (had the highest rushing average IN THE LEAGUE last year and Dunn should be retiring any day now)

Adrian Petterson - The kid is pretty big and very fast. A quick QB helps the running game too. He'll be racking up stats like crazy once those two get settled.

Joseph Adai - Peyton and the Colts will make him look like another superstar. In 5 years he'll be another Edge.

It's hard for me to pick Parker and Marice Drew because of their small quick style. Seems like the small quick guys are prone to injury and as soon as they loose a step they're basically worthless.

1. Ladainian Tomlinson will still be the best 5 years from now, because he is just that good.

2. Joseph Addai because he is a big part of the Colts offense right now and will still be one in 5 years.

3. Adrian Peterson already looks great in Minnesota and I don't expect him to slow down.

lmfgdao, you could go through half the posters on GS and find a billion spelling mistakes kid! So what? If my posts were bad to the point were you actually couldn't understand what I was saying then you'd have a point, but it's not like that at all. I don't like to waste time, so I do what most people on the internet do and I just make sure my posts make sense, rather then make them english teacher approved. :lol:

Your right Shiro, :? I didn't think GS kept threads this old in the memory....
