If Adrian Peterson is there, take him. Otherwise, you can probably find a great starting RB in the second or even third round almost every year.

I voted no, but of course it depends. If you think the last piece you need to contend for a Superbowl, then sure. If you think he's HOF caliber, then sure.

I voted yes. If the talent is there and the guy is way up on your board then you take him. Todd Gurley is a lock to go Top 10 in 2014. Richardson is a stud. He just doesn't fit their system and the Browns need a QB in a bad way.

I voted yes but ONLY if you already have your QBOTF and you feel this is a once in a generation type of player.
So, if the Packers/Falcons could draft AP/Tomlinson/Marcus Allen/Bo Jackson this offseason then yes...

According to most of you, the only position worthy of a top 10 pick is QB. Think of how stupid that is?
You need impact players all over the field. You don't have to have a great RB to win, but it sure as hell doesn't hurt. |

Really depends on quite a few different variables.

IMO, the poll question is whether or not you should put a RB that high on your board in the first place.

There's plenty of reasons why the average draft position of RBs has dropped over time, including the fungibility and short careers of RBs and the move to pass-heavy league. |

Build a good oline and system and many backs can be very successful.
See Shanahan and the Broncos: Terrell Davis Mike Anderson Clinton Portis Reuben Droughns Tatum Bell Olandis Gary Granted, TD was special, but still...

I think you may have the wrong cause. Your first sentence should be "Have your offensive linemen dive at defenders' knees and the backs of their legs, and many backs can be very successful."

Only if you are sure you are getting the next Adrian Peterson or Ray Rice. Other then that other positions are more important.
