I just watched film on all four RBs. I've seen much of it before, but just to be sure watched again.

Fournette truly is an absolute beast when you factor in his size and power to go along with that speed. I'm now sold on him at #1.

My #2 RB is McCaffery who I see signs of being an elite RB. Granted he's not Jim Brown as he's not an overly physical runner like Jim was, but he has this way of using his speed and athleticism to evade tackles that makes him special. I'll try to describe what I see... it's like he hits a hole fast and will cut as needed, but just when you think you got him he flips a turbo-boost switch and it outta there, In this manner he's displays a dominance on the field where I feel he'll carry teams to greatness. It's like his will to succeed won't allow him to be tackled.

Fournette and McCaffery are two RBs that I feel will go down in history as truly elite. ...and especially Fournette because he's thicker, stronger and more durable in order to play all 16 games.

Mixon and Cook are tough to decide between for #3. I see Cook and I want to say him for his speed alone. Forget his 40-time... the guy is FAST. But what else really? I don't see any power to his game so he'll have to survive on speed alone. It's great. I love Corey Grant. ...but we picked up Grant in undrafted free agency... not in round one.

Mixon is a good blend of everything with a little bit of power, a little bit of speed, and a little bit of moves. The thing is he's consistently just a hair ahead of defenses who just can't quite get to him. That's great, but he's not overly dominant. When you watch Fournette the guy is consistently overly dominant. I mean, defenses just don't stand a chance. With Mixon it's like defenses would stand a chance if they were just a hair better or faster, and in the NFL they are. I'll give him the edge over Cook only because Cook is sort of a one-trick pony, but Cook is faster Mixon no doubt about it.

My RB rankings based on pure talent remain...

Fournette
McCaffery
Mixon
Cook

I don't really feel there's another RB that's close. Kamara really isn't near these guys, and I kind of like Foreman, Hill and McNichols more than him, but that's all a good tier lower. Perine, Mixon's teammate, is probably just as good as any of these second tier guys. ...Marlon Mack you can put in a third tier around where I see Mixon actually being drafted.
