I think Jalen Hurd is probably the best all around back in the SEC when you count taking it up the gut, getting tough yards, getting to the edge and turning upfield (especially at his size) pass blocking, and pass catching but only about the 5th best actual runner behind Henry, Fournette, Collins, and Chubb.

For me it goes back to the Emmitt Smith vs Barry Sanders debate, what would Hurd do with Bama's line? I still think Fournette, Henry and Chubb then a toss up with Collins and Hurd. Those guys seem to have an extra gear that Hurd lacks

I think Hurd'sd abilities fit the NFL game better than the other backs mentioned except Dalvin Cook.

I think Dalvin Cook was made for todays pro game

Not sure how JRM is not first team let alone second team.

Can someone explain how Johnny Townsend is twice made these lists and not Trevor Daniel. Just because Florida's offense is worse and creates more opportunities to kick does not make him a better punter. Trevor's average yards is higher and the percent of time he gets it inside the 20 is higher as is his total number of touchbacks. The only part Townsend is better in is in kicks resulting in a fair catch.
