Based on these stats alone. Which running back would you want on your team?

The stats are posted below as attachments, because I can't paste a stupid table in a post.

I chose running back #1 because if he's #1, he must be the best.

I take it the stats are numbered sequentially?

If so, I pick 3 and I have my reasons. :P

I said running back #4. 4.6 yards a carry is pretty good and if he gets enough touches he could be the best and does his work good.

I'm guessing this is fantasy football related. I went with HB number 2. Surprising lack of TDs from any of them though....


I have joined one Fantasy Football league with a friend, and ended up taking Gore of Sf as my first pick because he was "safe" and solid, and everyone was basically gone. BUT, I then picked-up Julius Jones with a mid-late draft pick, as well as Lindale White.

And then... during the draft the guy that arrived late to the draft and had the computer make his first pick, complained about getting Steven Jackson... so I gladly traded Gore for the potential of Jackson.

I think I'll be doing just fine at HB this season.

I picked number 3 after taking into account his average yards, and number of td's as compared to his number of touches along with his fumbles, He just seemed to be a stronger more consistent back when he had the football.

I love logic, and that's the most logical this can get :o

EDIT: what is a running back?

ok, I'm going to start a different one with only 3 backs to choose from.

Also about why I'm doing it, its kind of a......... social experiment. I want to see which backs are picked based on numbers alone and not the name on the back of the jersey.

Also, I want to see what "numbers" are being considered when someone picks on numbers and not name.

So I'm going to make a new presentation with only 3 backs. We'll call it the finals.

For the record, Steven jackson is Back #4 and Edgerrin James is Back #5

Both of which were the least picked.

American Football, they are the players who usually stand behind the quarterback and run the ball.

RB #2. Very durable (didnt miss all that many games throughout his career), plenty of TDs, yards went up as his touches went up, great hands (90 catches in his last season), and the most important of all - FEW FUMBLES. Gotta keep the ball to put it in the endzone.
