On the real, where do you rank Prime Corey Dillon as the best RB's of the 2000s?

Dillon was that dude with the Bengals and one of my favorite RB's, until he joined up with the Patriots :rudy: :pacspit: He had the perfect mix of power and speed. I remember this nikka on "The Jersey". The best RB's of the 2000s are LT, Faulk, Edge, Holmes, Martin, etc. I think he was mad underrated and slept on, especially on the Bengals. How many RB's would you take over Dillon in his prime during the 2000s?

In Dillon's prime?


LT, Faulk, Edge, and Holmes before the hip injury.


Dillon was a great back tho.

He's in the Jamal Lewis, Freddy T tier aka the second tier of great RB's although all 3 of them have over 10k yards

edit: and Warrick Dunn just a tier below all them too

as far as RB's of the 2000's, he isn't seeing:



(all of the following at their absolute peaks during the 00's)


Faulk
LT
Edge
Priest Holmes
Jamal Lewis
Clinton Portis
Ricky Williams
Fred Taylor
Curtis Martin
Larry Johnson
AP



this isn't based on the 2000's as a whole, but like I said, all of those guys at their peaks during the decade were better than Corey Dillon in his prime

:rudy: I remembered as a Raiders when we let Charlie Garner go, The Raiders were the front runner to get Dillon since he wanted out of Cincy, and than at the last minute and out of nowhere, the Patriots sign him. :beli: And they even got more firepower and were even more dangerous coming off that SB win over the Panthers.

I remember Ray Ray, Sam Adams, Goose and the B-more goons made this nikka quit in 2000. He was avg like 0.3 yards a carry, O-line getting :dead:
Eventually he walks off the field after a play, takes his helmet off and just chills on the sideline. Bengals coaches telling him to get back in there and he's like :rudy:
