The days of the 1600 yard home run hitting RB are gone atleast for now.




Have you watched the NFL...ever? Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Jamaal Charles, and Chris Johnson are all home run hitting backs.

point being that many teams don't feature a back any longer, but have several that fit different roles. Look at the Packers for example, Kuhn was very valuable for them down the stretch, and was an undrafted FA out of Shippensburg.

I am talking about league wise. sure their will always be a few, but for the most part the RB position has become a committee job in the NFL.
