2018 NFL Draft: Thoughts on the First Round

2018 NFL Draft: Scouting the Running Backs

The running back position is stacked in this draft. It has been the deepest this position has been in over ten years. Saquon Barkley heads the group. He is the best running back to enter the draft since Adrian Peterson in 2007. Barkley is a better prospect than Ezekiel Elliott was in 2015.
