All time, I'd go with Earl Campbell. More recent players, I say Marshawn. I think he's a bit more than Peterson.

Rice does have big legs. But they are short so they help him squat a lot.

Yeah, Antone Smith is the same way. Short, all muscle ball of energy. Dude is 5'8" and can bench like 500 pounds or some shite.

Emmitt Smith is up there...and especially Sanders as others have said.

But it's more difficult to judge shorter guys with low center of gravity...

For taller guys with longer legs, I'd nominate Terrell Davis.

I'll agree with Earl Campbell, and I'll mention Robert Newhouse of the Dallas Cowboys.
