Let's discuss the most important position in fantasy football running backs.

0:04.6

In this video, we'll take a look at five RBs who are major values right now in drafts.

0:09.8

Translation, they are going too late.

0:11.8

And you'll want to take them if your goal is to win your fantasy football league.

0:15.4

And it starts right here with the Pittsburgh Steelers draft where they had seven draft picks

0:19.9

and spent exactly zero on the

running back position. And if we were to scroll through the Steelers free agency moves, you would
