          Move aside, other NFL running backs. LeSean McCoy believes he is the league's best at his position.

          The Buffalo Bills' star runner made the declaration Friday while speaking on "SportsCenter", saying, "I still feel like healthy, there's no back that can touch me."

          Asked to clarify if that meant McCoy feels he is the game's best, he said, "For sure. A healthy me, for 16 weeks, for sure."

          As for the rest of McCoy's top backs, he believes Le'Veon Bell is No. 2 on his list, followed by Arizona's David Johnson and Tennessee's DeMarco Murray.

          What about Ezekiel Elliott, who led the NFL with 1,631 rushing yards this season?

          "He's top five," McCoy said. "I feel five or six. He's a rookie. He got to do it again. Had a great year. He finishes runs well, he runs hard. Has good speed. I like Zeke a lot, for sure. I keep it honest."
