Forte is a good, solid back. I like him, but he certainly has his faults, too. He's bad on short yardage and he's a hit-or-miss back. He can break off big runs, and he's good in the open field, but he struggles to get yards if there's not a lot of room, and so his runs seem to typically be either nothing or a lot. It ends up in a lot of 2nd and 3rd and long situations. I think 91st is just about right.

I didn't look at the list, but how far ahead of Cutler is McCown?


The Lions had a guy named Barry Sanders that some called "boom or bust". Forte has been an elite RB since he stepped on the field. He has been a quality RB longer than some others that might be rated higher.


I agree that he's been a quality back for a long time. Just not elite.


You don't end up in the top 2 in yards from scrimmage over the past 6 years if you aren't elite. Especially running behind the Bears awful lines.
