Quote:Even in your scenario, if the jags took Elliot at 5 I'd be upset. No runningback deserves to be taken that high. It just isn't important enough of a position any more. I'd rather them take a DE, LB, CB, OL. Even if they were stacked at those positions I'd prefer them to take another.

If the 2015 class were re-drafted today, do you think Gurley would go before 10 and would he deserve it? I do. I think the running back position has been unfairly beaten up in recent years. Probably because the talent coming out at the position has taken a dive. The every down back has become and will remain a rarity, but a good running game whether by talent at the running back position or on the OL or both will remain an important part of a potent offense, especially in the playoffs where teams' game plans are often centered around waiting for the opposition to make a mistake.
