Who's the consensus best free elite player to go for tomorrow?

DISCUSSION

I wanted to see which free elite given after completing the tutorials looks like the best one to start with and complement the 80-OVR Brady. I've seen some comments about Isaiah Crowell having the best stats overall for an RB, and people talking about Tyreek Hill's 90 speed. This may be a bulbasaur-charmander-squirtle situation, but I thought there might be a consensus best player that everyone has discovered. Here is a list of all the players:

  • Patriots – Julian Edleman
  • Cowboys – Ezekiel Elliott
  • Cardinals – David Johnson
  • Chargers – Philip Rivers
  • Bills – Lesean McCoy
  • Buccaneers – Jameis Winston
  • Vikings – Stefon Diggs
  • Rams – Todd Gurley
  • Jaguars – Blake Bortles
  • 49ers – Carlos Hyde
  • Bengals – A.J. Green
  • Texans – DeAndre Hopkins
  • Lions – Matt Stafford
  • Bears – Jordan Howard
  • Giants – Odell Beckham Jr
  • Seahawks – Jimmy Graham
  • Ravens – Joe Flacco
  • Broncos – Demarius Thomas
  • Browns – Isaiah Crowell
  • Dolphins – Jarvis Landry
  • Colts – Andrew Luck
  • Saints – Drew Brees
  • Falcons – Julio Jones
  • Packers – Aaron Rodgers
  • Titans – DeMarco Murray
  • Raiders – Amari Cooper
  • Eagles – Carson Wentz
  • Steelers – Antonio Brown
  • Redskins – Jordan Reed
  • Panthers – Cam Newton
  • Jets – Matt Forte
  • Chiefs – Tyreek Hill

Also, here is a link to their back-of-the-card stats.

I'm sure the mods will remove this post if it doesn't deserve to be here, but I thought I'd try to find out who the best will be at the beginning or after the training points are done.

EDIT: Shit, almost forgot, thanks to u/dabrandt for originally compiling this information!
