RE:ESPN's TOP 10 football Players
I think there were better runners than smith over history, Barry, Walter, Brown and even dickerson. They were brtter runners but Emmitt was a better runningback. People always forget there is more to the position than carrying the ball such as blocking reconizing blitzes, weather to block or go in the flat for a dump pass. Emmitt's leadership made his line better he got in their face when they did bad. His linemen made it to the pro bowl because of Smith not the other way around. I saw Walter run, he was amazing, Sanders was even better but if I need a back to build my team around give me Emmitt.
