TD and Priest are both products of a great system,

Why do you have SA #1?

I see him as a workhorse back who could not be replaced by a backup (with anywhere approaching similar success) and I see him as being simply the best runner of all backs here.
Of course, I MAY be biased as an Alabama fan who loved watching him for four great years in college, but I think that I'm unbiased here.

your comment about being not being replaceable by a backup applies to everyone on this list. as far as him being the best runner-- no one runs exceptionally well w/o blocking, but he has looked strikingly average sans hutchinson + strong.

That could be a result of his hitting the wall that all running backs hit, or most likely a combination of the two.

It's not.

He only ran 'hard' consistently for 1 year. Funny, that was his contract year.

He never could catch or block worth a damn.
