Who are the Top 5 Running Backs of All-Time for the Falcons?
Over the next week few weeks, we’re going to be reminiscing about the past and ranking the top 5 players by position for the Falcons all-time.
Although the Falcons don’t have the rings to show for it or even the success to show for it, some very good players have played for this organization. Because it’s the offseason, we’re going to be deciding the top 5 players by each position for the Atlanta Falcons.
Top 5 by Position:
- Quarterback
- Running back (Today)
- Offensive Line
- Wide Receiver
- Defensive Line
- Linebackers
- Cornerbacks
- Safeties
- Special Teams
Unlike the quarterback position, the Falcons have had good running backs since Dave Hampton. In recent years, Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman have been great but neither of them have played long enough for me to include them on this list. Despite the omission, ranking a historically good position for the Falcons is challenging but I’ve attempted to do it!
