[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 365261, member: 1429"] I'm not "going around assuming" anything. Here's the transcript: (bolded parts are my work) All pro doesn't mean sh*t. Mike Jenkins was an all pro CB. Merriweather is an all pro SS. Brent Fullwood was an all pro RB in 89. Popularity contest isn't a measure of greatness. As for Charles, I have no problem with him being in the top 10. Being #1 overall ahead of Peterson and Johnson? Hell yes. He's not even a feature back in his team. Did he have an amazing season? Yes. So did Matt Forte in 08 and Brandon Jacobs in 07. Peterson and Johnson have been the consensus top 2 rbs since their arrival in the league. They have proven they can carry the rock 25+ times per game. Maybe he'll be able to in 2011, maybe he'll maintain his outstanding YPC while carrying the load. But, at least to me, a trully elite RB shouldn't need a complementary back to suceed. [/QUOTE]
