Ultimate AFC North Team: RB

[wolfkaosaun]

Alright, so moving on to the next position. Running back. However, with this one, you will be allowed to pick two RBs. The other thread I didn't allow it because there's only about 4 QBs.

But anyway, you can tell who you voted for and why.

Current AFC North ultimate roster:
QB: Ben Roethlisberger

[wolfkaosaun]

I went with Ray Rice and Trent Richardson.

Ray Rice is already one of the best backs in the league, and I believe he is about to hit his prime. With a new OC, he will do better and I think will have a greater impact on that offense than this previous year. Ray Rice is a very good player, and will continue to be.

And I also picked Trent Richardson. He has great upside and a down the field runner. I actually think he is going to turn out to be one of the best RBs in this league in the next few years. Has a great O-line and seems like a great guy. Has immense talent, and I think he will be around for many years.

Went with Rice and the Law-Firm...

Not because i believe they are the best 2 but because i believe they would make the best combo of the field for an all AFCN Team.

[Carolinabengalfanguy]

Ray rice and of course Trent Richardson, both of them can do about anything.

[Night's Watch]

This one seems more obvious than the QB poll, Ray Rice and Trent Richardson.

[VCU Rams]

rice and richardson and it isn't close...

[Bengal Dude]

Rice and Richardson. Very easy decision.

[bengals23]

Rice and Richardson. But Pierce, he's coming along nicely. Like him quite a bit.

[Jabberwocky]

Agreed. Rice and Richardson. I almost went Law Firm, but I see the advantage of youth at RB.

[Stewee28]

This is too easy.....

Ray Rice & Trent Richardson

They are by far the two most talented RBs in the league, let alone the AFC North. There was no doubt in my mind who I was selecting. So far, this team is shaping up pretty damn good and were only two positions into it!

Are we just selecting the best overall talent or are we trying to build the most effective team?

Can T-rich be a situational back or does need need a good majority of snaps?

Rice and Richardson. Rice is one of the best backs in the league when the Ravens actually feature him. And Richardson is a big reason why the Browns offense wasn't totally inept. That said Bernard Pierce looks like he could be pretty good.

Went with Rice and it's a toss up between Richardson and the Law Firm.
3.6 YPC for Richardson in NOT impressive.

[Ron Mexico]

People picked players not named Rice or Richardson?

No, but his 11 rushing TDs led the AFC North and was tied for 4th most in the league(tied with Marshawn Lynch and Doug Martin while having less attempts)

Oh ok so he's a good short yardage back

They really have no other threat on that offense

[St.Bernard]

I went with Rice and Richardson. Both are powerful backs that put up good yards almost every carry.

[junglester]

I did not peek at the other responses and went with Rice and Richardson. Both of them impress me with the way they gain yards even when the O-line isn't good.

Sure, I voted for Hardesty, but only because Boom Herron was missing on that list.

(Seriously, I think Mendenhall should be on the list - instead of, say, Redman.)

[XenoMorph]

Still think if your building a TEAM.... Rice and the firm would work the best as a 1 2 punch.

[bcolby20]

rice and richardson easily.

are you really trying to say cleveland's oline isn't good?

The Browns have a great line lol...


Just a thought..you kinda know who people are gonna say for positions like free Safety and strong safety..could you just skip those? It's almost like a waste of time, if not I'll still post just trying to save you the trouble.


Rice and Richardson!

Reggie Nelson and Taylor Mays are the best safeties in the AFCN
