No it’s not easy to find elite players

But the difference in an elite running back vs a good one isn’t the same as the difference in an elite player at a different position and a good player

Elite running backs are great. The difference in an elite back and a good one isn’t worth spending first rounders on them when you can find good ones later

You are an idiot if you dont think an RB like Saquon Barkley or Adrian Peterson are not worth a 1st round pick.

Yup

Saquon Barkley
1,307 yards, 5.8 YPC, 11 rush TD’s; 4 receiving TD’s

Phillip Lindsay
1,037 yards, 5.4 YPC, 9 rush TD’s; 1 receiving TD

Damien Williams
256 yards, 5.1 YPC, 4 rush TD’s; 2 receiving TD’s

Two undrafted RB’s had roughly the same efficiency as a 2nd overall RB. And Lindsay/Williams got nowhere near as many carries or catch attempts as Saquon.

Drafting any RB at 2 is reeruned.
