3) Tiki - not sure that he's first ballot material, very close though

I would agree with that. The only sad thing is Martin had his best year in 2004 at the age of 30. (Also his last full season) If he could have stayed healthy a few more years who knows how many yards he would have gained.


Does anyone know how many yards Emmitt Smith had when he was 30?
