Re-Drafting the Running Backs From the 2005 NFL Draft Using Advanced Analytics
With his outstanding production and longevity, how far would Frank Gore climb?

6. Cedric Benson

CarAV: 34

Cedric Benson joins Williams as a top-five bust. As the second running back off the board, the former Longhorn's career didn't get off the ground until five years in.

In 2009, Benson rushed for a career-high 1,251 yards and 6 touchdowns on an average of 4.2 yards per carry. His AV of 8 marked the best of his career and the only season over 7.

Benson had 6,017 rushing yards and 32 touchdowns over the course of his career -- a far cry from the lofty expectations for the fourth overall pick.
