By the time you find out that Le'Veon Bell, David Johnson, Najee Harris, Leonard Fournette, Frank Gore, Adrian Peterson, and Matt Forte all rank in the Bottom 25, well, I doubt you'd have much faith left in my rankings.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Peterson's bottom-25 YPC ranking underestimates his value; YPC is flawed.

Adrian Peterson ranks in the bottom 25 by yards-per-carry metrics, but this ranking fails the 'smell test' and underestimates his value, as yards-per-carry is dominated by outlier runs and luck rather than true player skill and production.
