Small-School Dynamos Add Intrigue to a Surprisingly Deep Running Back Class: 2024 Backfield Dominator Ratings
Since 2018 we’ve been using the backfield dominator rating (BDR) to find undervalued running backs and to evaluate the top backs in the class.

We’ve used it and related precursor metrics such as Workhorse Scores to find hidden…...

Mat Irby
April 9, 2024
