Nothing but average draft position (and a little bit of strategy) on today's show! We've got player debates and some love for the Rounds 5-8 running backs. We'll start at the top with the Round 1 RBs (2:00). Is Christian McCaffrey the clear RB1 or can we make the case for Austin Ekeler or Bijan Robinson? There are five RBs being selected in Round 2 (12:00) but several of them could easily be first round picks. We debate Nick Chubb and discuss Jonathan Taylor, Josh Jacobs, Tony Pollard and Derrick Henry ... On to Round 3 (22:00) with Rhamondre Stevenson, Jahmyr Gibbs and a few others. This might be too early for Najee Harris. Are we sold on Stevenson? Ahead of Joe Mixon? Then we'll look at Round 4 (34:30) which features Aaron Jones, Miles Sanders and Dameon Pierce ... A big chunk of the show will be spent on the RBs in Rounds 5-8 (37:40). Is this group much better than what we've seen in previous seasons? We've got James Conner, Rachaad White, Alexander Mattison, J.K. Dobbins, Cam Akers and many more. Who are we excited about? And then we'll talk about everyone else (53:40)! ...
