Can't see 1st or 2nd just for the general devaluation of RBs.

I think it'll be an Ingram-Robinson workhorse tandem. Take their stats the last 4 games and extrapolate them to 16. That's my projection.

More likely than a power back I could see a Sproles type of scat back drafted. There are quite a few good options at different round levels for that this year. I mocked Devonta Freeman to the Saints.

Not true for every team, and my scenario is based on getting back to a power run game like when we had Deuce.

Everyone assumes that from now on no HBs will be taken in the first and I disagree with that, and there will definitely be a couple taken in the 2nd.

Robinson workhorse
This is where I see the argument for NOT doing it. This isn't about good running like with a combo of Ingram and Robinson. This is about power running and pushing the pile like we had with Deuce, Ivory(when healthy), and maybe Robinson.

Maybe Robinson takes looking at a power runner out of the equation. I'd still like to get someone dominant like Deuce was though.

No bearing on my scenario. It wasn't about what we may be lacking and might go for. It was about whether we should get a power runner or not.
