Maybe. I'm not sure they're roster is better than New Orleans. Tampa, yes, and Carolina, yes.

Drafting a RB in the first round has nothing to do with that.
I would tend to agree with you on this statement, except that Robinson is considered a game changing, franchise lifting type prospect. The Falcons are betting on this, which is why they drafted him that high. It's not like they drafted Kenny McIntosh with the 8th pick. If they're wrong, it'll be their arse. If not, then the pick will have been worth it.

I think VADawg, and I, would argue that a RB just cannot do that type of franchise elevating anymore.
Just taking a look at the NFL Top 100, 10 RBs are in there and only 3 were drafted in the first round. (Barkley, McCaffrey, and Josh Jacobs)
