26. Frank Gore

Frank Gore often gets overlooked as one of the all-time NFL greats, but his statistics say otherwise.

In his tenth season in the league, Gore is 21st on the league’s all-time rushing list at 10,679 yards, and he doesn’t appear to be done just yet.

As Colin Kaepernick has taken over San Francisco’s offense, Gore’s role has diminished slightly, but he’s still one of the top running backs in the league when he gets the carries to prove it. Gore might be on his last legs, but he’s still got something left in the tank.

Ultimately, Gore should finish around 12,500 yards in his career if he plays another two seasons, which would put him at ninth all-time in rushing yards just above the legendary Jim Brown.
