Film Grades.
Receiving Threat Trait is a huge weight in the overall score due to the league trend.
Kills AJ Dillon here. Learning to catch is easy & coaches can say a guy can catch all they want, but you have to be better than the other backs. If you're not, it doesn't matter

Heaviest weight is Landing Spot, as it contains Opportunity measurement. I grade Opportunity on a few elements:
Do they already have a RB with a 250 carry load?
Do they have another back of >15 Opps per game under contract beyond 2019?
Was the other RB a significant investment?

Opp 4.0
Taylor, Clyde, Akers, Vaughn all have the same opportunity score. No one is walking into a pure starting role like 2019 Josh Jacobs.
Instead they have a bunch of Miles Sanders type situations: Incumbent is on last year or didn't earn volume leaving the depth chart open

Opp 3.0
Dobbins, Swift, Moss, Kelley all have to deal with guys that are under contract for multiple seasons and had >15.0 opportunities per game. Furthermore all of the incumbents were significant investments.
Likely staring at committee for 2 yrs and Volume is King.

Opp 2.0-2.5
Gibson, McFarland, Dillon, Dallas all coming in as backups for 300 touch starters or >15.0 opps players. Although Dillon, Dallas, and McFarland are facing contract yr incumbents, a smart team re-signs their 2019 starters at a committee back discount next offseason.

OL Grade is given based on Football Outsider's Adjusted Line Rank and Team Rush Yards last season. Chiefs are a bit lower than what I want, but hey, the stats.
Finally the Receiving Threat Film Trait gets a double down here to help project 3rd down utility (more volume!)

Profile Rankings.
Draft Capital Heavy. Graded my College Production Score, Combine Score and Draft Pick Value Curve on a 5.0 scale.
JT a bonkers freak with surprisingly late Draft Capital for his profile. Clyde's draft boost at 32 not enough of a gap to override the other backs.
