Today's NFL requires that a back be much more diverse than just taking the handoff. I think that to get a true measure of a RBs effectiveness and value in today's league, you likely must also include something that factors in pass blocking efficiency, as it is a pass driven league.
That's a great point. Changing that over to YPT, you would get the following top 10. Min. 100 touches.
- D'andre Swift - 2nd round
- Jerick McKinnon - 3rd round
- James Cook - 2nd round
- Tony Pollard - 4th round
- Chuba Hubbard - 4th round
- McCaffrey - 1st round
- Travis Etienne - 1st round
- Khalil Herbert - 6th round
- Aaron Jones - 5th round
- Nick Chubb - 2nd round
