Flex: Steven Jackson (2010-2012)

Rather than attempt to slate in a third receiver or a fullback, we’ll award the fifth skill player spot to the Rams’ all-time leading rusher.

Jackson was at the tail end of his prime at the start of the decade, but his numbers in three eligible seasons were impressive nonetheless. He had 1,000 rushing yards in each of the three seasons and totaled 3,431 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns. He added another 1,037 yards as a receiver.

His final three seasons with the Rams capped off a run of eight straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons, a feat that will never get the respect it deserves. Jackson was playing behind abysmal offensive lines, getting handoffs from quarterbacks who were either made of glass or incapable of throwing an accurate pass, and playing for coaches who were not capable of running an efficient NFL offense. The Rams went 36-91-1 during this eight-year stretch. Had they been even a little better, Jackson might have found his way into the Hall of Fame. He certainly had the talent to do it.
