Are you asking how the RBs that are coming out this year vs next year or are you asking how this years RB draft class ranks against last years?

Sorry, maybe it's DLS that has me foggy.

If the 2016 rbs are so good what makes you guys think we'll get any of them (unless were assuming we'll be bad again)?

I'm not understanding the logic. 2016 has top flight guys but theyll miraculously fall to dallas in the 20's? Just take Elliot and stop playing games. jesus

edit. you said 2015 vs 16. I thought you mean 17. my bad

1. Gurley
2. Elliott
3. Henry
4. Gordon
5. Perkins
6. Collins
7. Yeldon
8. Dixon
9. Abdullah
10. Coleman

I would rank David Johnson higher, but he wasn't one of the top backs chosen.

Same can be said for any position though. Even more so with QB. You also have to factor in availability of each position in FA. If you don't get a position filled in the draft, which positions are easier to find in FA?

Langford probably belongs in that conversation too.

Can Gurley catch the ball? He barely got any receptions last year. Elliot is a great catcher. And can Gurley block? I think all round Elliot might be the best.

Was using them in draft order. Otherwise, David Johnson would be on there.

No, I know. I meant with the same exception you use for Johnson, Langford should be there as well.

I'd much rather have Johnson or Langford than Dixon.

I hated the idea of melvin gordon in the 1st, but love Gurley... gordon had a bad rookie year, so I don't regret not wanting him

Romo loves to pass to his RBs on mismatches. Makes me think Romo wouldn't say no to that pick
