Running Back
I’ve been on the Christian McCaffrey bandwagon for a long time. His versatility is the big selling point, but he’s a much better traditional running back than most realize. McCaffrey is someone who will create mismatches, produce big plays and move the chains.
Leonard Fournette is a stud runner and someone capable of carrying the load. A team can draft Fournette and move forward known he can be the vocal point of their offense. His combination of power and speed make him such a special player.
The running back group is deep with talent where a team can easily land a No. 1 back in the mid rounds. D’Onta Foreman and Kareem Hunt are two of my favorite players in the draft and could be had on the draft’s second day.
