From a fantasy perspective, yes....although, personally, I don't think he is the most talented from a "raw talent" basis.

Not until he patches 3 years in a row together. LT, S. alexander.
Priest holmes all were and are great. It only takes one bad years to be on the outs ( Holmes) or an injury to be forgotten (Ahman Green, Jamal Lewis) in this league. Right now the top 5 are:
1. L. Tomlinson
2. S. Alexander
3. T. Barber
4.C. Portis
5. E.James
These are not by #s as much as by productivity in their individual systems. If Johnson does again what he did lat year, we can talk, but Ds are going to be focused on him and TEEing OFF on KCs running game this year since they have no air game left in my opinion. Do not expect the same results this year as last. 2 words why: WILLIS MCGAHEE. Nuff said.

My fault I left out "The Edge".... I guess I just forgot about him now that he's out in Zona...

LaDanian Tomlinson is the best back in the league. Best all around runner (not most agile, not most powerful, but perfect combo) and the best pass catcher (westbrook does that all the time and not enough running so he hardly counts as a RB who catchs..he's a slot reciever who runs). He will be remembered with names like Emmitt Smith, Walter Payton, and Barry Sanders.
I hope Dun Dun just forgot Edge on the list, otherwise ....>_>...

No. Tomlison. Best running back in the league now. Imagine if he had a better offensive line.

Personally I like Tomlinson better but LJ and Alexander are right there too.

yes, LJ does have a great supporting cast, but he is still the best putting up stats that are mind blowing

he might be the best back in his draft class but no way he is the best in the league.
