This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human. What's up, friends, and welcome back to Fantasy Pros. This is the Fantasy Football Podcast. It's the early-rank series. We did wide receivers. Today, we've got Running Back. Top 36 running back. We're going to be talking all through. I'm Chris Welsh. I've got Pat Fitzmorest and Tara Roberts with me.

We're going to be going and looking at the tiers.

We're going to be looking at targets.

What are the values?

And really, what does the consensus ranks look like?

Those consensus ranks you can find at fantasy pros.com slash rankings where it is our team.

It is people around the industry.

They're putting all these

bad boys down, it creates a fun consensus ranks, and throughout the next couple months,

it's going to continue to change.

So this conversation continues to go, and maybe it'll even be driven.

Some of the change might be driven by some of the conversations we are going to have here

today.

Tara Roberts, running backs.

Always a great conversation around, do I take wide receivers at the top and they're more chalky? Is it running backs? Running backs created definitely more of a floor last season. Do you think we're going to see more of a discrepancy especially, well, discrepancy is maybe not the right word, but do you think we're going to see more of a variance this year that the top half of the first round is going to be weighted to a little bit more running backs than we've seen in the past? Or do you think, I guess we're chalk again, that floor of what wide receivers provide overall, even though it wasn't so much last year, is going to just take back over. And people just can't help themselves, anti-running backs. Yeah, I'm torn i'm torn i mean people love their wide receivers and they love zero rb but i think we will see a little

bit of a tilt to running back heavy based off of what we saw last year obviously when something

happens a trend and you have that reliability of those early round guys giving you such an edge that we might see it tilt a little bit.

So, yeah, I can see this thing where we get these running backs with a little bit more preference than they had last year.

Yeah, Pat, it'd be fascinating if you break the first round, 12 picks if we ever start to see again the weight of like seven running backs and five wide receivers,

you know, where it would be more wide receivers, uh, ruining the day.

I do find it interesting, you know, we're going to get the big board up here in a second,

but like I don't recall a year where the tier one of running backs was five deep pat.
