Rushing yards are also a measure of value - they're just a worse measure of value than DPAR because they have a lower correlation to scoring points (and therefore winning). Westbrook leads all NFC running backs in DPAR.

Actually he doesn't. Per this link: DPAR

He trails Marion Barber in the NFC. He also trails Addai. I don't see how any list that has these two part time RB's ahead of Westbrook, Gore, L. Johnson or Barber should be definitive proof that Westbrook is the most valuable RB in the league.

That list only requires 75 carries to qualify. Bump it up to 200 carries and you'll lose the part timers.
Also, take another look at Addai. He really is having a very good year.
