Nah, Next year Yeldon, Gurley, Gordon, all these guys are going in the first round. These are franchise type RBs. All these guys have the size, speed, and power you want in an NFL back.

No they won't.

Drafting tailbacks in the 1st Round is a tactic that has failed a number of teams recently. Will they go early in the 2nd Round? Yes.

You know what you said is stupid for a number of reasons right? You drafting them in the first or second makes no difference. You think Lacy gained 1000 yards because he was drafted in the second, not the first? Doug Martin was a first rounder and David Wilson was too. One panned out, the other didn't. Trent was a surefire first rounder and looked it for the most part his first year.
