Having Gibson on my roster is like having a subscription to the jelly of the month club. It won't be enough to put in a pool.Gibson last? You serious Clark???
If I'm grading them based on what I thought about them entering the league after their NFL drafts, not what I saw the 2020 class actually do I'd have ranked them this way:
1. CEH
2. Taylor
3. Najee
4. Swift
5. Akers
6, Williams
7. ETN
8.. Dobbins
9. Sermon
10. Gibson
Bonus add: I would have put Najee as number one rookie RB for redraft purpose over last two years.

1. JT- great prospect who really put it together down the stretch, size speed production Godzilla
2. Swift - I know he’s another 2nd round pick and history tells us 1st round pick status matters but I love the burst he showed last year, the potential of this offensive line and the way the offense might need to build around him
3. ETN- great prospect landing with the dream QB and a coach who wants to feed him receptions, floor is low but ceiling is unreal
4. Akers- he got a lot of touches down the stretch and really kicked ### but it’s a small sample size still, we know McVay likes to churn these skill players
5. Harris- The perfect combo of prospect and landing spot but Pittsburgh offense could be about to fall off a cliff
6. Gibson- he has JT level upside but there is some worry for low receptions and coming back to Earth on his TD rate, haven’t seen bell cow play yet
7. CEH- didn’t think he had any business getting drafted where he did last year (fantasy and NFL) but he was ok and it’s the Chiefs so why not CEH?
8. Dobbins - love the talent just don’t think he will get the receptions needed to hit his upper end.
9. Williams - young and an offense that’s just a QB away from making this a golden goose type landing spot for Javonte
10. Carter- I just like what I saw and thought he produced neck and neck with Javonte. Opportunity is there and I’m willing to let it ride with him despite the horrific draft slide.

I figured I'm give this a bump now that we're into training camp. Anyone with a new ranking?

My list looks very similar to what Ilov80s posted back in May. Thats why I liked his post.
I was lower on Akers by quite a bit being the main difference. I have always had Akers lower than Dobbins and Swift.
