I've seen quite a few draft pundits say that Barkley is a better RB than both Zeke and Gurley. I agree that he's a better prospect than Zeke, but I don't see how people can justify saying he's better than Todd.
The highest YPC Barkley ever had for a season in college was 5.9 YPC. Gurley didn't have a single season where he averaged less than 6.0... He was averaging 8.2 YPC in 2014 before the suspension, which is INSANE! Keep in mind, TG played in the SEC.
Saquon is an absolute beast but he's not bigger or faster than Todd either, and his efficiency in college wasn't as good as TG3. Gurley also has the best hurdling ability of any RB in NFL history. I just don't see how these arguments are justified. Thoughts?
