Mostert had a 1k season, league leading 18 TDs, and was tied with McCaffery with 21 total TDs. The fact that he didn't even get an honorable mention is pretty much peak disrespect.
jamaal williams led the league in TDs 2 seasons ago and now is almost out of the league. mostert was better than williams but the point is that TDs seriously do not mean that much
@@ryanisav I agree, but he was also top 10 in rushing yards, and was 6th among RBs in yards per attempt. Combine that with the TD's, and there's no way he shouldn't at least get an honorable mention.
I'm with you man I was thinking the same thing the whole video
How is Josh Jacobs not on here
You’re underestimating Rich’s cluelessness.
He was one of the least efficient backs in the NFL last year. 3.5y/a is mediocre, even on a shitty team.
Jacob's is fringe top 10
@@sirarticle Lol, 3.5 yards a carry wins games.
@@sirarticleyou have to take into account the state of the offense. One of the worst passing offenses in the league makes for a stacked box that is hard to run against. He’s going from a team in the bottom ten in passing to a team just outside the top ten. He will have a crazy year
Where is Josh Jacobs on this list?
Not the greatest list. Jacobs is a monster for sure
he's hurt somewhere
He’s washed. It’s over with him.
@@WormChi312He’s definitely beat up. But if you watched the raiders then you’d know that interior line was average and the QB play was terrible. If you can’t pass the ball then you can’t run it. Everyone knew when Jacobs was getting the ball.
@@WormChi3121 down year and he’s washed?
Not only is Gibbs' speed, hands, and footwork amazing, he can push thru people and block well. His ceiling is super high.
Glaze
@@hudsonpowersyou the glizzy glaze king
@hudsonpowers call it what ya will but he was speaking facts. Gibbs is the truth, they mentioned Bijan going for 2k all purpose, Gibbs is the one who'll get that this year.
He is the next Jamal charles
we all know he is awesome. but the lions used him at the goal line. he got mostly negative yardage. after 2 tries they came back to montgomery and he will punch it through. means that rich doents know how to evaluate skill guys unless u run 4.4.
Wow, the disrespect in not including Raheem Mostert.
He’s sixty three years old
Still great though
@@alexsolo4085 that he is.
Raheem Mostert with a monster season last year just to still not be seen is crazy
Couldn't agree more
Wish he couldve stayed healthy on the Niners. We probably wouldn’t have CMC though if he did
Yeah, putting Nick Chubb and Aaron Jones over Mostert was disrespectful.
Achane as well. Not sure but I wouldn't be surprised if Achane had the highest yards/attempt in the league with the way he runs.
@@alexsolo4085 so basically, youre happy he got hurt
Kyren Williams!!!!!!!!! Wtf
rich is not suited for skill position group evalutation unless u ran 4.4. the only good choice was cmac at 1. .... jamir gibbs? he is awesome, but rich didnt watch lions games. the lions tried many times him at the goal line he got negative yards most of the time. kyren williams wont lose any yard at the goal line.
@@dodu8281Gibbs did fine in short yardage/goal line situations when given the opportunity. That's primarily DMo's role tho.
Kyren is an average RB that had a great season.
His official Lamb "highlights" were some of the weakest I've ever seen lol. Not once was I like "wow, that was special". He had like 6 really good plays, and 4 of them were against the Cardinals.
The majority of his TD's were from inside the 5, just like a guy named Jamaal Williams on the Lions in 22'.
Kyren will likely have a couple more good seasons then fade away into a back up. In no way is he a game changer.
@@LionsOnTheHunt313 well revisit this later in the season or after
@@LionsOnTheHunt313 as soon as someone says "lamb" or "lambs," their opinion no longer matters.
In college, Gibbs caught 98 out of 100 targets. Ben Johnson is going to utlize him this way too.
Finally someone put Gibbs in his proper ranking, after this year he will be #1
True! Dude is gonna become a superstar this year for sure. Once he figured out he doesn't have to hit everything at a million miles an hour he was unreal. His patience before turning on the jets is amazing. Dudes gonna have a lot of big runs, and a lot of big games this year. Can't wait
@@joshlewis575 NO GIBBS IS #3 BEHIND MOUNTGOMERY
@@BytesnBobs😂 monty gonna let gibbs eat. But on those 3rd and close, he gonna break the walls down
No Kyren is crazy
Who??
@@calebfernandez7782kyren Williams? That’s embarrassing
Kyren is an average RB who had a great statistical year. His "highlights" from last year are very pedestrian. Didn't make me go "wow" once 💯
No Raheem Mostert? No Devon Achane? One of those two guys should be on the list.
Not even a Lions fans and it's great to see them with studs. Makes Thanksgiving so much better
yeah I am a Lions fan and am dreading Thanksgiving already, a Thanksgiving win and beating Seattle are the last barriers for this New Lions Franchise to break through. Of course there are others to exceed still.
The fact that both Mostert (21 rushing TD’s, 24 total TDs) and or Devon Achane (most explosive RB last year period avg’ing nearly 8yd per carry all year or more) were both not even mentioned… disgraceful.
Mostert is very old for a RB, and Achane is just super speedy in the right system. ACHANE is going to be a change of pace guy his career, wayyy too small to be considered a top 10 NFL rb
@@TomatoPaceHe's 0.5" shorter and 11lbs lighter than Gibbs. Is that your definition of "wayyyy too small"?
@@smudgeous4068 Owned him
No Kyren Williams in the top 10 at all? Sheesh more fuel 🐏
Yeah that’s actually insane. Kyren will be the best RB this year
You must of not watched him play. That’s Ok
@@timwiechmann1519 Considering he led all RB's in YPG despite missing 3 and a half games its pretty ironic of you making a statement showing your lack of football knowledge. This discussion clearly wasn't for you lol
Bro you don’t know ball
Kyren is an average RB who had a great statistical year.
Watch his official Lambs "highlights". Spoiler alert.... they're WAF.
Gibbs is HIM
I was heated when I saw Bijan and no Gibbs, then very satisfied with seeing Gibbs at two lmao
bijan should have been at least top 5 though
@@drew388 I'm a Lions fan and I love Gibbs, but you're absolutely right. Robinson should be somewhere in the top 5 as well.
@@benbird2100 we both have top rbs for the next 6 year hopefully
2x Super Bowl champion Isaiah Pacheco not being on here is insane. Man carried and clutched up for the team when called on, keep sleeping. Bro is leeps and bounds better than a old Derrick Henry, Aaron jones or bijan
The absolute disrespect to Kyren Williams not being included here is wild. He would have easily had the most rushing yards last year if he wasn't injured to start the year
I would easily put him at 3
Insane to not have him on here. I was expecting him to be top 3. They whiffed big on this one
I agree. Drop Aaron Jones and put in Williams.
Rich is an old head. He’s gonna take into account their whole career and, just as expected he’d lean towards bigger names with a longer resume and lean against someone who only had one good season so far
yessir!! he’s fun to watch
Kyren Williams should be on the list and so should some mention of Mostert or Achane only led the league in touchdowns and yards per carry by a large margin on the same team with a broken o line
he singlehandedly carried me to my fantasy championship. I love him so much.
No Kyren Williams, is nasty work (Rich) after having the homie on your show a week ago, week ago, week ago... Wild!!
D Achane played 11 games. Combined rush and pass 997 yards and 11 TDs. Let’s go…..
Only played 11 games.. Can't be good if you aren't playing.
@@RickNasty42069YOLObut you can be good if you are
@@RickNasty42069YOLO We not gonna talk about the other running backs who were injured, where Rich specifically said that if they are healthy, they will dominate
I think you’re sleeping on Isaiah Pacheco he’s a beast.
I think I. Pacheco is going to kill it this season, there's going to be receivers now to give him more opportunities.
No Kyren Williams and having Nick Chubb that low is a crime
Chubb injury and return status is still up in the air.. how can you rate him when he might not even return?!?
no James Cook is a headscratcher. 4th in yards last season, nearly 500 yards receiving. TDs arent there mostly because Allen snatches those from him, but the guy is super solid both running and catching.
fantasy sleeper af
Not to mention he was second in all purpose yards only behind cmc
Joe Mixon? Wow... he's going to blow up in Houston.
Josh Jacobs is top 10
Who would you replace on the top 10 ?
@@paulgood2218 Jacobs should be 6th or 7th, Chubb and Aaron Jones should both be dropped from the list, and Kyren Williams should be somewhere in the 8-10 range.
@@golkeganac4339 I don't know I'm more chub is ahead until he shows he can't do it anymore. I mean ya Jacobs had good year 2 years ago but he did not last year 800 yds 6 tds and he only had 800 yds before his break out year too. I beginning wonder if he just an average rb that had 1 really good year. .
The curse of josh jacobs👹
Nick Chubb is a real unknown, his injury looked awful. All the best to him on a comeback but man, you gotta have your doubts that he truly returns to the same form.
Thank you thank you thank you for not giving Isaiah Pacheco a sniff on this list. I hope he sees it soon.
How did you not have Mostert, or Achane on the list? Even 1 of them.
No Kenneth Walker? If the line stays healthy and he doesn't have to make 3 cuts just to hit the LOS He will be a monster
Lolol
Wasnt James Cook like 3rd in total yards? Dual threat, 2nd best qb in the league. Underrated
I love watching Rich Eisen’s take. Big fan of the Rich Eisen Show! Let’s go! My favorite running backs: Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds of the Detroit Lions.
CMC is a beast ❤
I remember the first time I saw Nick Chubb as a rookie break off his first big run and thinking "that guy is special" so I'm hopeful and confident he will come back with as much strength as he can muster.
Im taking Devon Achane in fantasy no question. I think that kid is gonna score lots this year, catching and running em in
He’s my favorite rb right now, i feel like i have some heavy bias, but I just love watching him play.
@@trollwayy5981 that kid had an absurd ypc. And it's not like he only had a few dozen carries.
He split duties with another back who had 20tds and still carved out huge stats for himself.
I think he's due for a big year
@@d8l835 i am worried about jaylen wright joining the mis.. not like im expecting them to use wright a whole bunch but he’ll be taking some plays from 28
@@trollwayy5981 if he balls out in pre season, maybe he steals some touches. They have Tyreek, Waddle, Beckham, Jonnu, Mostert and Achane that all will demand touches.
That's alot of players that you want to feed.
If the rookie makes it in there thats probably a good thing for the team, or a bad thing because injuries have hit the RB room
@@d8l835 injuries or achane really balls out in his receiving routes
J Jacobs needs to be there.
Pacheco, yes? Glad to see he got a mention. I think he's part of the reason our D was so good last year; they got that extra rest. Keeping drives alive when the WR's can't catch...
Raheem Mostert may be older but better give props. And behind him A Train.
Absolutely 💯
Totally agree, Achane is going to light up the NFL this year, if he can avoid injuries
@@Arseverse if..
I know it’s hard to rank them since they’re so much of a duo but Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet are some incredibly talented kids
Travis Etienne and CMC are the only 2 running backs to have over 1400 yards from scrimmage in back2back years 22/23. He should be top5
Everyone always wants to rank Bijan super high based on his potential and not what he has done so i respect this
Bijan at 7 is crazy
Derrick Henry literally played half a game with a broken metatarsal and he is only fourth? I don’t know on that one, man. The dude is just built differently!
He had some dropoff. Might drop him in fantasy
Too high on Gibbs
henry has dropped off
Plus he just went to the #1 rushing team in the NFL
@@CodyMcCoolwhat are you talking about he went over a 1000 last year with a bad o-line
Achane averaged 7.8 yards /carry last year...hope he can stay healthy!!!
Y'all just sleeping on JT at 5 like that? He's going to have a monster season. Theres CMC, then JT, then everybody else. He's the George Kittle of RBs.
Pacheco?
Well I guess the Lions did get their draft value taking him at #12 Gibbs is fun to watch. Kudos to the Ravens getting Derek Henry, I was like oh man how appropriate. McCaffrey is just amazing so talented and tough as they come.
N. Harris not making the list is wild. He has 3 thousand plus yard seasons to start his career in a split backfield!
Not only Raheem mostert but no Devon achane who could have potentially won rookie of the year if not for his injury.
No Najee with 3 1000 yd seasons in a row under Matt Canada is crazy !
and finally having talent on O-Line at Left & Right tackle and Center. Hopefully Arthur Smith will get Najee on a healthy diet of wheel routes, as Harris is deadly on those.
Sleeper pick, najee over half these guys
He isn't even the best RB on his own team. And if you argue that then I would question how many Steelers games you watched last year.
@@elowe5937exactly
Najee? This isnt a top 25 list. Its top 10. Be less of a biased Steelers fan and you'll realize its crazy putting him anywhere close to top 10 when Achane, Josh Jacobs, David Montgomery, Kyren Williams, Raheem Mostert, Kenneth Walker, and James Cook were all left off of this list and all deserve to be higher ranked than Najee. Sure Najee will be better, but Matt Canada isn't an excuse to be delusional.
Gibbs is him hes going to have a monster season hes already playing behind the best oline an his speed is incredible
Not having Josh Jacobs on this list is NASTY WORK!! 😂😂😂😂💯
love the character development for Rich; used to not like power rankings, and now has a day every week dedicated to making his own lists lol
King Henry at #4?? Second leading rusher in the NFL last year, Most yards after contact.. And he was behind the 32nd ranked offensive line....
He's probably going to lead the league in rushing this year
Guessing this is a Ravens fan
@@AP-sr2lr Correct. Possibly a Titans fan or possibly just a knowledgeable NFL fan.
I was surprised to learn that Henry recorded the seventh FASTEST individual in-game play last season.
It's quite impressive considering his mass far outshines his speed.
I think at this point it would be pointless to try to predict when his drop-off will occur. Similar to Tom Brady or LeBron James, Derrick Henry seems to have longevity.
1 D.K. Metcalf SEA 22.23 mph Week 13 vs. SEA
2 Chase Brown CIN 22.05 mph Week 14 vs. IND
3 Tyreek Hill MIA 22.01 mph Week 5 vs. NYG
4 De'Von Achane MIA 21.93 mph Week 3 vs. DEN
5 Kavontae Turpin DAL 21.91 mph Week 14 vs. PHI
6 De'Von Achane MIA 21.76 mph Week 5 vs. NYG
7 Derrick Henry TEN 21.68 mph Week 18 at JAC
8 Tyreek Hill MIA 21.68 mph Week 13 vs. WAS
9 Tyreek Hill MIA 21.66 mph Week 1 at LAC
10 Raheem Mostert MIA 21.62 mph Week 2
No Kieran Williams?
Right only played 12 games and was 3rd in rushing lol rich is on the crack today
For all the Kyren stans...
Bro is an average RB who put up great stats. His official Lambs "highlights" made me laugh at how unimpressive they were 💯
Saquon going to feel like he's in heaven switching from the Giants to the Eagles O-line.
No Cook, Mostert, or Jacobs is absolutely wild.
How the hell is Raheem Mostert not on this list!?
Wouldnt the lightning be the first option in the "thunder and lightning"? Since you see lightning before you hear the thunder.
I think there is a potential for a great RB duo with Najee Harris, and Jaylen Warren in Pittsburgh. With their new OC, who loves some run game, and they beefed up that o-line a bit. and more important, no Matt Canada.We will see when season gets going, but I think it could be something special.
Not having dmo is crazy
Dmo is good but nowhere near top 10 and that’s from a Lions fan
@DaSilentHitman yet gibbs is on here and dmo had more yards and tuddys
I’d take Raheem Mostert and DeVon Achane over at least 5 of those guys … especially if you’re looking at what will happen next year.
Come on man, Devon Achane averaged 8 yards a carry last year and Raheem Mostert had 21 TDs. No respect.
Yeah I hope rich sees this..... one of them deserves to be on the list
You forgot Raheem Mostert
When you got to the top 5, I was like Oh well, Gibbs didn't make the list. Didn't expect him to be #2! His potential is sky high even though his production last year was not fully realized.
Having Bijan on this list for what he did two years ago and in college is crazy to me when you don’t have Kyren or mostert.
How can you rank power based off what hasn't been done yet 🤔
"Dare I say I need to see it?" No, judging from all the top 10 ratings for Caleb Williams, you apparently don't need to see a single play.
Maybe this is home town bias but Kenneth Walker not being here(maybe it's because he's in a 2 player RB room with Charbonet)
I love running backs
JT and Richardson played together in the same game against the Titans actually, but JT was still being phased in.
They played literally 1 snap together
I really wish they would revisit a bunch of these "lists" at the end of the season and see how their predictions worked out.
Wow, no James Cook? You’re talking 100/100 games then the season he had after the O/C change was really good.
Breece hall at 3 is wayyy too high as of today.
List is kinda wild
- One RB who isn’t on the list, is the only RB in the league to have 1,000 yards rushing in each of the last 3 seasons. [most people neglect him tho]
- Another RB had 1100+ rushing yards in 12 games and didn’t make it. [the only pass I’ll give for him is that he does need to prove it again to solidify himself. But hot damn last year was impressive]
I'm not going to hate on CMC if he doesn't do well. His wife is a dime! Sooooo. Don't blame him
Jahmyr Gibbs, buy stock now - Go Lions
No James Cook? Absolutely slept on
no love for Najee?
Devon Achane is about to have a big year. Rookie year was solid especially considering how little he played
Hopefully by the end of season, Kenneth Walker is in all top 5 lists. Hoping the new Seattle offense will take advantage of his skills
No Kyren Williams is a complete joke 😂😂😂
Eh
@@Tmindful182Eh if he started the full season he would have cmc in the dust
I remember when rich was above doing list, but I guess you gotta give the ppl what they want
All of this depends on that O-line
No Josh Jacobs??? Rich is wildn today
It cracks me up how Aaron Jones basically never made these lists when he was with the Packers (He'll probably be on a pretty significantly worse offense this year). And Jacobs was always on these lists before joining the Packers (He will be on the best offense he's played with in his career). The anti-Packers bias whenever players go to other teams is always so apparent. It's wild.
Bro, as a Vikings fan, I agree. I was surprised by how high everyone was on Jones signing. We never heard anything about him being a rare threat when he was with the Pack. To me, he’s almost a lateral move from Alex Mattison.
@@suncatblue Don't get me wrong, I love Jones and I'm sure he'll be great for you guys (and probably break our hearts by rushing for 200 on our heads when we play you). But the way the media suddenly is calling him a top 10 RB is very funny after years of seeing him basically ignored by everyone other than Packer fans.
😂
I didn't know that Jets fans hate the Packers. Was there a rivalry in the past?.
You have it completely backwards, the packers have always been media darling and are constantly over hyped when not talented. There is no way you can think that.
Chubb should be much higher, but if coming off the injury is the reason I'll accept it.
That hi pitched noise
Hope LRZ is on this list next year.
Josh Jacobs is going to have a monster year. Why is because he has a good QB, so the defense can't just focus on him, and he's got a good offensive play caller that knows how to use RBs- two things he's never had before.
James Cook should of been on the list
OK Rich, you sound like the Almighty I know you have to do a lot of fill time of year ,hilarious
Bro said James Cook and Rachaad White 💀
I maybe bias but how you not have James cook on there??? One of the best catching rbs out there!!!
not putting J Jacobs on this list shows you he wasnt taking it serious
No Bills on your top 10. Now James Cook gets the snub? We'll get what we deserve, Mr. Eisen.
Derrick Henry at 4th on a power rankings list that includes as criteria the potential to get 100 yards catching in game nullifies the list.
Chubb's injury was DEVASTATING. Where's Kyren Williams?
