Which RB would you pick to start a team?

Question

If you were starting a team from scratch, who would you pick as your RB? You could pick any RB in NFL history, but he'd have to play against today's quality of players.

Answer 1

Larry Johnson

Answer 2

Well I see all these little quick big name RB's, but To Lead A Team takes more then speed, you need a leadership,one that's not to get injured very easy,and can still move his legs....so I would Have to go with Curtis Martin from the jets, hes got great acceleration to hit the holes quick, and a good bit of strength to hit em hard, and hes a real quick guy so this would defiantly be a good RB to start with from scratch he knows how to hit them hard and hit them fast, also hes a great leader on the field, and hes not so cocky like a lot of RB's that are skillful Like him, and another good angle is hes been pro for 10 years, so hes got a lot of experience under his belt...so your best bet would be Curtis Martin

Bo Jackson barely ahead of Herschel Walker. I would prefer Jim Brown, but the defensive players are so much larger than in his playing days.

Emmitt Smith. One of the toughest guys ive ever seen (and im a Giant fan). Anyone that can run with a dislocated shoulder, and keep getting hit on that side brutally and not go down? Thats my 1st pick.
