If we look at elite RB's last year, here's where they were drafted:
MJD: 60th (6th RB picked in 2006, behind LenDale White and our own LoMo))
Peterson: 7th (1st in 2007)
Forte: 44th (6th in 2008, behind guys like Felix Jones)
Rice: 55th (7th in 2008)
McCoy: 53rd (4th in 2009, behind guys like Beanie Wells and Donald Brown)
Foster: UFA (2009...yeah, not a great year for evaluations)
Why such inconsistency in ranking RBs?
With the exception of Peterson (and before this year, CJ), first round RBs have not had a great run of success. Is there any factors that could explain this trend?
