Dillon gets great yardage when he gets the ball, but the TDs are lacking cuz they usually get jacked by some TE. But he is underrated and is putting up better numbers then a lot of the other RBs.

I don't think Dillon is underrated, just that he flies a bit under the radar like Jimmy Smith of the receivers.

Like Jimmy, he's never one of the best at his position but always offers solid production around the top10, top15 level. Solid but unspectacular.
Respect Stevie McNair. Bow down to the pouch.

Dillion was always consistant with Cin. I think the slow start with NE will benifit his numbers late in the season. Especially against some of the matchups NE has this 2nd half of the season.

Dillon cannot CATCH the football.

Yes Receiving points for yardage or receptions is gravy...but those gravy points are a lovely thing. And at the goaline a pass-catching receiver is given another medium to score a TD *which Dillon does not have*. One dimensional player at the goaline allowing the Defense to key-in and stop DIllon. How many times has that happened this year. ALOT. im guessing at least 3-4 TDs were lost because Dillon did not finish off the job. Possibly less if he could catch the ball. This is what keeps him out of the elite RBs

Hey, I love Dillon on my team but he is not the complete package. Leaving him outside looking up at the TOP TIER RBs.

Run-Catch RBs...not necessarily all Top Tier but explosive
Holmes, Faulk, DDavis*not Top Tier*, T Jones, Alexander, LT, TIKI, A Green, Portis, Mcallister, Mewelde*when he was playing*

Hefty list of guys riding the gravy train.
