Shady McCoy proved again that he's one of the most valuable RBs in the league. The whole offense runs through Shady, whether it's in the rushing or passing game. Last year, Mike Tolbert was his only backup. This year it's Chris Ivory's turn. He shouldn't be too much competition for McCoy and will likely just come in to give Shady a rest.

McCoy will be 30 by the time the 2018 season starts, and did show signs of slowing down last year, with his rushing average a career low of 4.0 YPC. However, he still had the 4th most rushing yards and I think the volume he will receive this year will still keep him inside the top 12 RBs. Keep in mind, a new QB will be behind center this year. Either AJ McCarron or Josh Allen will lead the team out, and both are likely to lean heavily on McCoy.
