In time, the position will rise again.
The thing about the proliferation of the spread is that the teams that are sticking to the power run game are becoming unique among their peers. As defenses re-tool to fight the spread with nickel defenses and lightweight linebackers, they are losing the ability to defend the power attack.
Fullbacks will come back into play again as offenses realize the future opportunity awaiting teams that run effectively.
