[QUOTE="Veretax, post: 215882, member: 1092"] He wasn't comparing Shaun Alexander to Ryan Grant. He was saying that Shaun Alexander belonged in the Top ten. I just compared the stats of the guys at the bottom, and I don't believe Shaun is good enough to warrant being in there, especially what he's done lately in Seattle. The other guys had pretty consistent seasons. That's all. Ryan Grant really needs another full season under his belt. If he continues on the pace he started, then Yeah, he'll be in this top ten by years end most likely, that is if another back doesn't muscle in ahead of him. But that's why I made the comparison of Shaun Vs, Dunn, Addai, and Taylor. Those were the guys that I most felt he needed to compare to. Shaun has had a lot of TDs, but not a lot of yards, so some of those TDs are a result of the team he was on, and his yards going down since the Hutch trade kind of speak to that. I've never been a fan of Ahman Green, he was okay for like one season that I recall, but he has struggled with injuries that sort of thing keeps him from breaking the top ten in my list. He certainly is NOT the greatest back of all time, he is not better then Edgar Bennett when he was here. Ryan hasn't had enough time in the system, and came on late, so I'm not knocking him, I'm just saying he's not the elite back yet. That is not a knock against Grant, you have to Earn respect, and I'm not saying get rid of the guy. I'm not sure where that idea came from. He was playing for an Atlanta Franchise that had no o-line and was in shambles after Vick, I doubt anyone really cared last year in Atlanta. One year in an 11 year career pfft. Marion Barber III hasn't gotten the respect in dallas to be declared a Starter yet. He's a change of pace back, and just wait till they try to start him, and he wears down. He's not half as good as Jones-Drew. [/QUOTE]
