Won't happen anymore for running backs. They're just not that valuable.
For the really special ones it still will. Every 3-4 years there will be a top 10 RB pick. Look at the highest paid players, and top tier RB's are up there. Guys that can prove to catch passes and pass block and play every down certainly bring more value. This LSU offense will feature those skillsets.
Having said that, I don't think Hill makes it into that conversation, but it may be possible if he has another incredible year, I just don't think he sees that type of workload.
I think Fournette has the talent to be a first round pick and will be if he stays injury free.

Exactly. Argument is nuts. A RB hasn't been selected in the 1st round ONCE in the history of the NFL Draft. The year before there were 3 drafted in the 1st. The days where 5-6 are drafted are almost certainly gone, but we will still see plenty of RB's go 1st round in the years to come.
