RE:Windmill Signatures
All purpose yards are incredibly overrated. It scews the numbers far too much in the direction of punt and kick returners. You are pretty much guaranteed 20+ yards per KR and 9+ for PR just for being the return guy. Yards from scrimmage are a much better barometer of how much a running back has contributed. He had about 1400 yards from scrimmage. A decent total but not heisman worthy. Benson without looking im gonna guess had over 2000. Peterson had 1800 or so rushing but not much receiving. Ive known AD since 7th grade and honestly the guy is an ass so Im not the right person to judge him but I didnt think he should have been as high as he was. Bush was a good pr but not enough to make up the difference between him and the others as a running back.
