Top 10 Most Dangerous Non-Quarterback Offensive Weapons

The title should be simple enough for you to already know what this one is about. The saying has always been, "defense wins championships, offense wins games."

Well, these following 10 players are going to help win a ton of games. However, I decided to make this one a bit more interesting and prohibit any QB's on this list. It would have been far too easy to make most of this list riddled with signal callers.

So without further wait, here are the top-10 non-quarterback offensive weapons.

Honorable Mention: Adam Breneman, TE

Adam Breneman is currently hurt with a torn ACL. However, the 6'5", 230-pounder is, when healthy, the top TE prospect in the country.

Breneman has the ball skills of a WR, excellent length, solid play speed and has the quickness to get a good release off the line as an in-line TE. He shows a large strike zone, soft hands and should have the quickness to separate from linebackers and safeties.

Breneman is committed to Penn State.

10. Alvin Kamara, RB

Alvin Kamara is probably the best third-down back in this year's class.

He's a 5'10", 190-pound rock toter that excels in the passing game and is strong enough to hold up blitzers as a pass protector.

Kamara has a strong lower body, which allows him to run stronger than his size and break tackles. He's extremely shifty and quick, giving linebackers fits at the junction point in the passing game.

Kamara is a speedster and has a chance to be a complete back in college.

9. Derrick Griffin, WR/TE

Derrick Griffin hails from Texas and could max out his college size at 6'7" and get up to the 230-pound range. He's a great athlete and is like covering an oak tree on the perimeter.

He has deceptive speed, good quickness to release off the line and his frame is so long that defenders have trouble getting around to combat the ball.

Griffin also is a great leaper. His height just allows him to go up and high balls in the red zone and frustrate CB's.

He's committed to Texas A&M right now.

8. Thomas Tyner, RB

From Oregon, Thomas Tyner could be the fastest player on this list when he's healthy. A 6'0", 207-pound RB, Tyner has great size, but his best asset is his speed.

This guy can flat out fly when he squares his shoulders to the goal posts. He can skate to the edges, beat box defenders to spots, elude them and get vertical upfield in a flash.

Tyner shows good run instincts and solid run strength.

He should fit in well at Oregon, should he stay healthy.

7. Derrick Henry, RB

Derrick Henry is a physical specimen at 6'3", 240-pounds. The Florida native is a huge and athletic RB that isn't a power back at all.

When you look at his size and position, you think he's a classic power runner that is a bully with the ball. Not so fast my friend, as Henry is actually a speed back with great quickness and elusiveness.

He has quick feet feet, can shoot through run alleys and is intimidating to challenge as a defender because of his size. 

6. Keith Ford, RB

Keith Ford is the type of runner that can put a team's running game on his back for a game and just go at it.

A Texas native, he goes in the 5'11', 200-pound range and has outstanding run instincts.

Ford shows a natural feel for the game, great vision, patience to set up his blocks and exploit bad run fits by the front seven. He runs with great strength and can break tackles.

His speed is solid and he can reel off a long one to get some chunks if he has space.

Ford is headed to Oklahoma.

5. Stacey Coley, WR

Stacey Coley is a Florida native that stands 6'1", 175-pounds on the hoof. Sure, he's light in the pants, but that just helps him blow by the coverage.

He has all the tools to be a No. 1 WR in college.

Coley has great release quickness, can elude press, skate upfield with speed, separate with quickness and snatch the ball out of the air en route to the end zone.

4. Ryan Green, RB

Ryan Green is a Florida native that has committed to Florida State.

His speed and shiftiness is among the nation's best, on a 5'11", 195-pound frame.

I think he should form an excellent tandem with Mario Pender in Tallahassee, as their speed and elusiveness should give the ACC fits.

Green also should be great on screens, which give him space to operate, vision to see and lanes to exploit to burst to the end zone.

3. Robert Foster, WR

Foster is from Pennsylvania and is the top player in the state.

He's a 6'2", 190-pound WR that has a huge upside and is getting better and better.

Foster is extremely explosive off the line, can eat up cushion like a hungry hippo or elude press in his release with quickness. He flies upfield thanks to excellent play speed and has the athleticism and feet to detach from coverage with ease.

His hands need to be more consistent, but he also shows great instincts as a RAC player.

2. Ricky Seals-Jones, WR/TE

Ricky Seals-Jones is a versatile offensive weapon; he can play WR, TE and wildcat QB for you on a 6'5", frame weighing close to 220-pounds.

He shows great speed when the ball is in his hands, quickness to elude defenders and is very, very athletic.

Some have Seals-Jones penciled in as a WR in college, while others say he will become a great TE.

Wherever he ends up, he should be a prime time offensive weapon.

1. Ty Isaac, RB

I have Ty Isaac No. 1 because he combines the most versatility, size, speed and production.

From Illinois and headed to USC, Isaac can get it done many ways.

First, he can play the traditional RB role at 6'2", 220-pounds. He shows excellent speed, burst, run strength and vision. Then, Isaac can play WR easily thanks to his size, speed and excellent hands.

You can also deploy him into the slot and even some wildcat QB. That's a lot for a player of Isaac's size and skill set, which is why he's No. 1 on this list.
